A fan convector, pipework, quick-release couplings, and temperature sensors make up the trainer. Both heating rooms and absorbing ambiance heat from the outside air are possible with the trainer. Thus, it can be used as a heat source or a heat sink for a heat pump. In the case of heating rooms, fan heaters provide the opportunity to achieve a relatively good transfer of heat to the room air, even at little dimensions, in comparison to typical heating radiators. Because of this benefit, room heating can be operated at lower heating circuit temperatures. Thus, when used in conjunction with a heat pump, the fan heater frequently represents an advantageous application from an economic and energy standpoint, particularly when updating heating systems in older buildings.
When groundwater or geothermal heat collectors can’t be accessed or are difficult to reach, air heat exchangers are frequently utilized to absorb ambient heat and supply it to a heat pump. In this instance, the advantage of lower initial investment expenses is contrasted with the disadvantage of the energy balance, which is particularly unfavorable in the winter.
