Panasonic to Preview New Heating and Cooling Solutions at ISH

Aquarea J Generation can reach an output water temperature of 60˚C. With a sensor selector switch, the user has the option of setting the hot water supply so that Aquarea works with the best possible COP for DHW production. If a larger amount of hot water is needed, the controller optimises the unit for maximum bulk output. This means that if all family members want to take a shower, the Aquarea will always reliably provide hot water – likewise for if only one person takes a shower.

In addition, the J Generation can cool down to 10°C and control the indoor comfort conditions via surface heating or a fan convector, more effectively. A special PV function also opens up the possibility of utilising free solar power for cooling of the building.
For intelligent maintenance support, Aquarea Service Cloud is available as part of the Aquarea Smart Cloud control system, which allows users to operate the Aquarea remotely via a smartphone. Aquarea Service Cloud saves time and installer visits by connecting Aquarea to powerful cloud infrastructure to monitor remote error codes. This enables installers to respond more quickly to faults and issues, keeping the customer completely satisfied with their heating and hot water systems.

For visitors interested in commercial solutions, Panasonic will present the BIG PACi R32 line up, which gives distributors and installers a higher value, future-proof offering for customers with the reassurance that the products adhere to impending European legislation. Business owners making the switch to PACi R32 can also benefit from energy and cost savings, thanks to a higher energy efficiency performance of up to 10% with R32. Available in 20kW and 25kW capacities, the new models have a more compact indoor chassis for easy installation and a light-weight, split-able duct system.The new models also include a water heat exchanger option, the very first of its kind in Europe – available from July 2019.

Compatible with the PACi R32 range, is the new PRO-HT Tank range – another point of interest at the booth. Featuring double pipe Nano technology, the PRO-HT DHW Tank provides excellent heat transfer thanks to a pipe-in-pipe heat exchanger. When connecting R32 PACi or ECOi 2 PIPE units, the maximum output of domestic hot water reaches up to 75˚C, with an energy efficiency class of A+. When used in conjunction with ECOi 3 PIPE units, the 1000 litre tank can produce free DHW up to 65˚C via a heat recovery system, reducing operating costs and energy usage.With a high COP rating of up to 6.70, it’s an ideal solution for large commercial applications, such as hotels. Available in a range of capacities 1000, 500 and 200 litres (PAW-VP1000/500/200LDHW).
