Q-ton Air to Water Heat Pump

The Q-ton air to water CO₂ heat pump outperforms traditional electric and gas water heaters in efficiency, sustainability, and cost savings. Unlike gas boilers, Q-ton air to water CO₂ heat pump produces zero on-site emissions and operates with up to 76% lower CO₂ output. Compared to electric heaters, Q-ton CO₂ heat pump uses up to 60% less energy thanks to its advanced heat pump technology, which extracts heat from the air instead of relying solely on electricity. This results in lower operating costs, reduced carbon footprint and compliance with sustainability targets, making it the superior choice for commercial hot water applications.

An air to water CO₂ heat pump hot water system is an energy-efficient system that utilizes carbon dioxide (CO₂) as a natural refrigerant to heat water. It operates by extracting ambient heat from the surrounding air, even in low temperatures, and transferring it to the water through a refrigeration cycle. This process involves the CO₂ refrigerant absorbing heat, being compressed to increase its temperature, and then releasing the heat to warm the water before the cycle repeats. Unlike traditional gas or electric water heaters, this allows air to water CO₂ heat pumps such as the Q-ton to achieve a Coefficient of Performance (COP) of 4.3 meaning they generate 4.3 times more heat energy than the electricity they consume. This results in significant energy savings and a reduced carbon footprint.

CO₂ heat pump hot water systems such as the Q-ton outperform traditional electric and gas water heaters in efficiency, sustainability, and cost savings. Unlike gas boilers, co2 heat pumps such as the Q-ton produces zero on-site emissions and operates with up to 76% fewer CO₂ emissions. Compared to electric heaters, Q-ton uses up to 60% less energy thanks to its advanced heat pump technology, which extracts heat from the air instead of relying solely on electricity.

Air to water CO₂ heat pump hot water systems such as the Q-ton offer numerous advantages over traditional gas and electric water heaters, including:

• Superior Energy Efficiency – They use up to 60% less energy than electric water heaters, significantly lowering electricity costs.
• Lower Carbon Emissions – By utilizing CO₂ as a natural refrigerant, these systems produce far fewer greenhouse gas emissions compared to gas or traditional heat pumps.
• High-Temperature Hot Water – Unlike standard heat pumps, CO₂ systems can heat water up to 90°C, making them ideal for commercial applications.
• Reliability in All Climates – CO₂ heat pumps maintain high efficiency even in cold temperatures, ensuring consistent performance year-round.
• Long-Term Cost Savings – With a lifespan of 15+ years and low maintenance requirements, these systems provide a great return on investment.
• Government Rebates – Q-ton is currently eligible under both the VIC Government’s Victorian Energy (VEU) Program and the NSW Government’s Energy Saving Scheme (ESS). Businesses in NSW or VIC can access thousands in rebates when replacing inefficient hot water systems with a Q-ton air to water hot water heat pump.

The Q-ton air to water CO₂ heat pump can reliably deliver up to 90°C hot water in temperatures as low as -25°C. It can also maintain 100% capacity down to -7°C. This makes it ideal for commercial applications in colder climates that require reliable hot water even all year round.

Air to water CO₂ heat pump hot water systems such as the Q-ton are ideal for industries that require a reliable, energy-efficient, and sustainable hot water supply. Some of the key sectors that benefit from this technology include:

• Hospitality & Accommodation – Hotels, resorts, and serviced apartments need large volumes of hot water for guest rooms, kitchens, and laundry facilities.
• Healthcare & Aged Care – Hospitals and aged care facilities require consistent and hygienic hot water for patient care, cleaning, and sterilization.
• Fitness & Recreation – Gyms, swimming pools, and sports centers benefit from high-temperature water for showers, spas, and pool heating.
• Food & Beverage Processing – Breweries, dairies, and food production facilities rely on large-scale hot water for processing, cleaning, and sanitation.
• Manufacturing & Industrial – Factories, textile plants, and pharmaceutical industries require reliable and efficient hot water for production processes.
• Education & Public Facilities – Schools, universities, and government buildings can benefit from air to water CO₂ heat pumps to meet high daily hot water demands while reducing energy costs.
