Performance assessment of a cold-climate air source heat pump .: NH18-22/114-102E-PDF

Through these experiments, the cold-climate air source heat pump (CC-ASHP) system was shown to have a significant impact on overall house energy consumption. The impact of a CC-ASHP operation will be different for all types of homes and mechanical setups. For this reason, it should be noted that these findings are valid for the Canadian Centre forHousing Technology (CCHT) twin houses, and an energy model should be used when projecting the results to other situations. The CC-ASHP system assessed in these experiments was able to meet both the cooling needs and heating needs of the CCHT test house, a 210-m² home built to R-2000 standards.
