What is the difference between an air energy heat pump and a central air conditioner?

1, the principle of operation is different. Air-source heat pumps work as a two-connected system, the use of air energy and part of the electrical energy, the temperature of the low refrigerant compressed into a high-temperature medium. The central air conditioning is power-driven compression work, low temperature is converted to high temperature, and then heat dissipation, is a thermal energy cooling after expansion process, more complex and cumbersome.

2, the way to provide heating is not the same. Air source heat pump is hot water supply equipment, while the air conditioner is active heating of water.

3, the mechanism of converting heat is not the same, the air energy heat pump is a cold medium to carry out, while the air conditioner is circulating to achieve heat transfer.

4, the internal operation is different. Air source heating is completed, after reaching the specified temperature, it will automatically stop working, while the air conditioner will not, so compared to the air source is more efficient.
