Description Solplanet SOL AIRPOWER SOL-014HC3
The Solplanet SOL AIRPOWER SOL-014HC3 heat pump is a monoblock air-to-water system that effectively provides heating, cooling and hot water supply in homes or offices. This 14 kW model belongs to the SOL AIRPOWER line, where modern technologies are combined with environmental requirements, allowing stable operation in different climatic zones. Heating and air conditioning specialists often recommend it for energy-efficient buildings, where it is important to integrate with solar panels or low-temperature systems, making everyday life more comfortable and economical.
Technologies
The technological basis of the Solplanet SOL AIRPOWER SOL-014HC3 heat pump is based on the Panasonic full inverter compressor with the EVI ( Enhanced Vapor Injection ) system. This function adds steam to the compressor, increasing efficiency by 30% even at -25°C, which is especially useful in cold winters. The refrigerant R32 with a low global warming impact is used, helping to reduce carbon emissions. Intelligent defrost uses heat from the hydraulics and an electric heater for quick cleaning, avoiding unnecessary pauses in operation. Built-in Wi-Fi allows control via the app, and the inverter fan and sine wave control adapt to the load. COP ranges from 2.98 at -25°C to 6.92 at 27°C (for water 30/35°C), and the seasonal SCOP is 4.50 for 35°C and 3.25 for 55°C. Operating range: heating from -25°C to 45°C, cooling from 16°C to 45°C, with a maximum water temperature of 60°C, making the system flexible for real needs.
Advantages
The advantages of the Solplanet SOL AIRPOWER SOL-014HC3 heat pump are tangible in everyday use, as it helps people save money and live more comfortably. The energy efficiency class A+++ (at 35°C) reduces electricity bills by 70-80% compared to classic boilers, extracting heat from the air. Quiet operation at 54 dB makes it invisible in living spaces where noise can be annoying. Environmental friendliness is supported by low emissions, and compatibility with green technology subsidies makes the choice easier for families. Thanks to EVI, the device operates stably in frost without unnecessary heaters, and smart control responds to the weather, optimizing costs. For households or businesses, it is convenient to have everything in one: heating at 16.50 kW (A7/W35), cooling at 13.50 kW (A35/W7) and DHW. Experts note the reliability of the Panasonic compressor and easy integration with existing networks, which simplifies system upgrades for better comfort.
Installation
The nuances of installing the Solplanet SOL AIRPOWER SOL-014HC3 heat pump require careful attention to ensure that the system works at full capacity and serves safely for years. It is better to entrust the installation to specialists, as independent attempts can lead to problems or loss of warranty. The device weighing 124 kg and measuring 1110x480x850 mm is placed on a solid base, for example, a 1200x450 mm concrete slab with 10 mm anchors, or on a wall/roof with reliable fastenings against wind and vibrations. It is important to leave space for air: 1 m in front, 0.5 m on the sides and rear, avoiding dusty or salty areas. DN32 (1-1/4") water pipes should be short, with minimal bends, insulation and filters (pH 7-8.5, hardness <50 ppm). A buffer tank of 60 l or more, with a 5 l expansion tank and a 1.5 MPa pressure switch are recommended. Electricity at 380-415 V/3 phases/50 Hz with a 4 mm² cable includes leakage protection (25 mA) and grounding; the heater is a separate circuit. Before starting, vacuum, check for leaks, fill with water (min. 10 l/kW in winter). It is worth avoiding frequent restarts, protecting against lightning and keeping the switches away from children so that everything works smoothly.
Overall, the Solplanet SOL AIRPOWER SOL-014HC3 heat pump successfully combines the latest solutions with practicality, becoming a reliable assistant in modern heating and air conditioning systems. Experts advise adapting to local conditions to maximize savings and reduce environmental impact, making life more comfortable.
