Guides on heat pumps always list the same drawbacks. Some are true, others apply to houses and not to industrial buildings. Here we take them one by one, with figures from the more than 4,000 Kita Air<\/a> units installed in industrial buildings from 300 to 30,000 m\u00b2.<\/p>\n

1. It needs electricity, and the supply is often not enough<\/h2>\n

This is the most concrete drawback. A Kita Air heats 35 to 47 kW and draws power like a medium-sized machine tool. With five or six units in a 2,500 m\u00b2 building, the available power must be checked before, not after. We have lost a customer precisely for this reason: the supply was not enough and he did not want to upgrade it.<\/p>\n

How it is solved.<\/strong> The site survey measures the available power before the offer. Where it is lacking, the upgrade is requested from the grid operator, which for a company is a routine procedure. Those with photovoltaic panels on the roof produce in-house a good part of what the heat pump consumes, because the hours of sunshine coincide with working hours.<\/p>\n
