Hitachi Hydro Free Low Temperature Hydrobox FAQs
Are HVAC systems noisy?
Modern indoor units are designed for quiet operation, with sound levels often comparable to a whisper, making them suitable for bedrooms and offices.
What size HVAC unit do I need?
Sizing depends on room dimensions, insulation, occupancy, and usage. Oversized or undersized systems waste energy and reduce comfort - a qualified installer should calculate the correct capacity. Contact us at The MEP Shop today and we can help you size up your project correctly.
Can HVAC systems provide both heating and cooling?
Yes. Heat pump-based systems can reverse their operation to provide heating in winter and cooling in summer, offering year-round comfort.
How energy efficient are modern air conditioning and heat pump systems?
Modern HVAC systems achieve high seasonal efficiency ratings - SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) and SCOP (Seasonal Coefficient of Performance), lowering running costs compared to older units while reducing carbon emissions.
What refrigerants are commonly used in modern HVAC systems?
Most modern units use R32 or R410A refrigerants. R32 has a lower global warming potential (GWP), making it more environmentally friendly. We are starting to see the emergence of R290 refrigerant used in some newer units.
