Hello everyone,
we are currently planning our house. One of the first questions from the providers is always about the "heating method."
So far, I have mostly shrugged and said "gas heating."
One provider recommended air-to-water heat pumps over the weekend. Until now, I didn’t even know such a thing existed.
I’m now trying to educate myself a bit and found the following model from the company "Stiebel Eltron":
WPL 13-23 cool
The description says that it can heat and cool.
Now my question:
Can the cooling function be imagined like an "active" air conditioner (performance of a split air conditioning unit), or is it a kind of "pseudo cooling" that cools the building from 35°C to 34.5°C? (So practically zero cooling)
What do you think of such technology at all? (I have so far only lived in houses/apartments with gas heating)
(Warm in winter with gas, cool in summer with an extra air conditioner)
I want it to be warm in winter (without a thick wool sweater in the house) and cool/cold in summer.
So far, I have never really dealt with energy values.
In winter, I prefer a (very) "warm hut" and am willing to pay extra before I get cold in winter and receive 100 euros back.
With acquaintances and friends who have installed "new" technologies, I often get the feeling in winter that their house is (too) cold. (You don’t freeze directly, but it’s not cozy warm either).
When they visit us, they almost always say, "Oh, it’s so warm here with you."
Best regards
