Advantage
1. Energy saving
There is no doubt that the biggest advantage of air energy water heaters is energy saving. The low-temperature heat energy in the air is converted into high-temperature heat energy through the compressor. Based on the same amount of hot water production, compared with electric heater water heaters, it maximizes energy saving. The use cost is only 1/4 of electric water heaters, and compared with traditional water heaters. Compared with gas water heaters, there is no need to consume any gas fuel, and the use cost is only 1/3 of that of gas water heaters.
Taking air as the main body and saving energy can not only save people's use cost, but also conform to the main body of energy saving in the world. This is one of the biggest bright spots of air energy water heaters.
2. Convenient
The selling point of air-energy water heaters is air, and for household products, one of the most basic needs of people is easy to use. Therefore, convenience has become the second highlight of air-energy water heaters. Because the amount of air is not affected by indoor and outdoor, sunny and cloudy days, compared with solar water heaters, air-energy water heaters are very convenient, whether they are installed indoors or outdoors, and whether they are installed in cloudy or sunny days, the temperature is above zero degrees Celsius. can use. In addition, after a tank of water is used up, the air-energy water heater can produce another tank of hot water in no more than one hour, which can be used by a family all day long.
3. Security
Electric water heaters have potential safety hazards of electricity leakage. Gas water heaters have the risk of gas poisoning. Compared with these two types of water heaters, air energy water heaters exchange heat through the medium to avoid direct contact between electric heating elements and water. This solves the problem of electric water heaters. There are hidden dangers of electricity leakage. Secondly, because the raw material is air, the possibility of gas explosion or gas poisoning of the gas water heater is also ruled out, so that people can use it more comfortably and worry-free.
4. Environmental protection
Energy saving and environmental protection are complementary to each other, and environmental protection is another plus point in the energy-saving advantages of air energy water heaters. First of all, the air-energy water heater uses electric energy to compress air to produce heat, and does not emit exhaust gas or toxic gas. It is not only safe, but also creates a pollution-free bathing environment.
Secondly, the use time of air-energy water heaters is 15-20 years. The long life span can not only reduce the cost and trouble of replacing water heaters, but also reduce waste production in a sense, which is also an important aspect of environmental protection.
As a new technology product, the air-energy water heater stands out in a variety of water heater markets. Today, people's awareness of energy conservation and environmental protection and consumer awareness are getting higher and higher, I believe that air energy water heaters will bring a new look to the water heater market by virtue of their high efficiency, convenience, safety and environmental protection!
Disadvantage
1. Environmental adaptability issues
The heat source of the air energy water heater is the air that we all need. As an energy-saving product, its energy-saving degree is closely related to the COP value and energy efficiency ratio. Since most of the air-energy water heaters on the market today are designed with a normal working temperature of 0-40°C, air-energy water heaters often perform well in the south, where the ambient temperature is relatively high.
In northern cities where the temperature in winter is only -10°C, it is difficult for air-energy water heaters to achieve the desired effect in the design. If the temperature is -20℃, the unit cannot even start. Basically, it can only be heated by electricity in winter (large electric kettle, and it will automatically heat when the temperature is low)
2. The installation problem of air energy water heater
Household air energy water heaters often need a water tank to heat and store hot water. Taking a family of 3-5 people as an example, a water tank of 120L-150L is needed. Such a large-sized water tank is not easy to coordinate with the overall home, so consumers can only install the air-energy water heater on the balcony.
But as people's requirements for the home environment increase, consumers on the balcony are unwilling to accept this big guy.
3. Consumers' awareness of heat pump water heaters
Heat pump water heaters are a new thing in the domestic market, and consumers' awareness of it is still very low. Many people think that it is impossible to get three parts of heat with one part of heat, and it is the same for other products related to the application of thermal recovery technology, although the penetration rate of heat pump air conditioners has been very high.
People's understanding is only limited to the fact that air conditioners are large power consumers, but they don't know that they are more energy-efficient than briquettes. Nowadays, because some large shopping malls do not have air-energy water heaters for sale, consumers' awareness of air-energy water heaters is still very low.
4. The purchase cost is very high
One air-energy water heater can buy many gas water heaters. Although it is a bit energy-saving, this cost can be used to pay electricity or gas bills for seven or eight years.
