What is a multi-zone heat pump system?

Multi-zone heat pumps provide the best of both worlds – the comfort of a central system and the performance of a wall system.

How does a multi-zone system work? Which model works best? Here’s what you need to know!

WHAT IS A MULTI-ZONE HEAT PUMP? | A multi-zone heat pump comprises one single outdoor unit and multiple interior units.

• Each indoor unit is adapted specifically for the room it’s in to achieve optimal comfort.
• Multiple interior units can be combined within one residence to suit your heating and cooling needs.
• Multi-zone heat pumps do not require ventilation ducts and can be installed in less than a day.
• Each interior unit regulates its own temperature independently of its counterparts, allowing each room to be set to the ideal temperature for its use.

THE ADVANTAGES OF A MULTI-ZONE HEAT PUMP

Technology | A multi-zone heat pump uses Inverter technology to modulate power levels as needed. Inverter technology works similarly to a dimmer light bulb. The unit quickly establishes the required temperature and modulates its energy consumption to maintain it.

Cost Savings | Thanks to Inverter technology, your system is energy efficient, and the cost savings are considerable. Without a peak of energy consumption, the system functions at 50% or less of its maximum capacity, at the pleasure of your bank account.

Silence | The multi-zone heat pump is up to 40% more silent than conventional central heat pump systems.

Heating Efficiency | The heating efficiency of a multi-zone heat pump is ideal thanks to a large heat exchanger and high-capacity compressor.

Guarantee | The high-performance Fujitsu multi-zone heat pump has a ten-year warranty for both parts and labour.

DIVERSE INTERIOR UNITS | Once you decide on a multi-zone heat pump, you can have up to four different zones or interior units.

According to your personal preferences and needs, the type of interior unit can differ from zone to zone.
