WSHP System Design Part 4: Water Side Components and Considerations
/
What components make up the water side of a WSHP design besides the heat pumps themselves? And what “best practices” should engineers observe to optimize the efficiency and longevity of water side equipment?

/
WSHPs operate similarly to traditional air source heat pumps (ASHPs) in that they transfer heat rather than creating it from a combustible fuel. Both incorporate a refrigeration cycle to facilitate heat transfer and both include a valve to reverse the cycle, depending on whether the unit is in heating or cooling mode. The primary distinction between WSHPs and ASHPs is….
