Installation ease for Viessmann heat pump

Designed for ease of installation in the standard British heating system – the new Vitocal 100-A-air source heat pump, introduced by Viessmann, is ideal for the replacement of gas and oil boilers.

Compact and affordable, the monobloc unit has A+++ rated energy efficiency to further benefit end-users with low running costs.

Viessmann UK’s managing director, Graham Russell, said; “The Vitocal 100-A is a new, environmentally-responsible heating option that is as simple to retrofit to existing homes as it is to specify for new builds. Viessmann is serious about offering a quality product in this volume sector of the market and therefore the Vitocal 100-A is price-competitive with equivalent standard monobloc air source heat pumps from other leading manufacturers.”

The Vitocal 100-A is a fully integrated outdoor unit that does not require a complementary indoor unit. The monobloc design means installers are not required to work on, or connect any, refrigerant-carrying parts; therefore, a refrigerant certificate is not required. Environmentally-friendly R32 refrigerant is used.

“The heat pump market is growing and gas and oil installers are telling us they are ready to take the leap and fit their first heat pump. The Vitocal 100-A is an easy to use product that provides a simple installation and can be easily integrated into the traditional British domestic heating system, with S-plan controls and standard room thermostats,” said Graham Russell.
