Altherma 4: the new generation of air-to-water heat pumps
Daikin introduces the fourth generation of Altherma air-to-water heat pumps. This heat pump uses the natural refrigerant R-290 (propane), which is both environmentally friendly and efficient. The Altherma 4 is specially designed for use in detached and semi-detached houses and can also be used in existing buildings that require high flow temperatures. With an output of 8 to 14 kW, the heat pump is ideal for buildings with up to 300 square meters of living space.
Maximum safety when using R-290 refrigerant
Safety is the main focus of the Altherma 4, especially due to the use of R-290, a highly flammable refrigerant. Daikin has taken extensive safety precautions to minimize any risk. These include a special safety container that keeps the propane safe until it is used. In addition, all of the heat pump's electronics are designed to eliminate any risk of ignition. This advanced technology makes the Altherma 4 the safest heat pump of its kind in the world.
