Understanding Aerothermal Systems

Overview of Aerothermal Heating and Cooling

• Aerothermal systems are recognized as one of the most cost-effective and reliable heating and cooling solutions available today, leading to increased interest from families for both new constructions and energy modernization of existing homes.

• Despite the significant advantages of aerothermal technology, potential users often have questions, particularly regarding which type to install: monoblock or biblock systems.

Types of Aerothermal Systems

Monoblock System

• The monoblock system consists of a single unit located outside the home that contains all refrigeration circuits. It does not include an interior unit but requires a separate hot water accumulator (ACS).

• A typical 200-liter accumulator has dimensions around 60 cm in diameter and 140 cm in height, designed primarily for indoor use to minimize energy loss; however, outdoor models with good insulation are also available.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Monoblock

• Advantages:

• Lower installation costs.

• No need for interior space usage.

• Simplified installation without refrigeration connections between units.

• Disadvantages:

• Lacks an internal unit requiring a separate ACS accumulator.

• Requires more exterior space due to being a single unit.

Biblock System

• The biblock system comprises two separate units: one external (ventilator) and one internal (refrigeration unit). This setup necessitates integrated refrigeration connections within the house.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Biblock

• Advantages:

• Typically integrates ACS within the internal unit, reducing noise since the ventilator operates outside.

• Allows greater distance between units due to refrigeration installation, enhancing performance.

• Disadvantages:

• Occupies both interior and exterior space.

• Generally incurs higher installation costs compared to monoblock systems.

Recommendations on System Selection

• After evaluating both systems' advantages and disadvantages, biblock systems generally offer superior performance due to reduced energy losses from having critical components indoors.

• However, if space is limited, monoblock remains a viable option. Both types utilize aerothermal principles effectively for heating, cooling, and hot water production with up to an 80% energy savings.
