What are the elements of the Altherma system?

The Daikin Altherma system is available as either a Bi-Bloc or a Mono-Bloc solution with the option of connecting to our specifically designed domestic hot water tank to satisfy your year-round domestic hot water needs.

OUTDOOR UNIT:
Altherma Bi-Bloc Outdoor Unit
The outdoor unit extracts heat from the outside air, raises its temperature and transfers this heat to the indoor ïhydroboxÍ unit for circulation into the underfloor heating circuit, radiators or fan coil units. The unit is compact and can be easily installed with no drilling or excavation work required.

Altherma Mono-Bloc Outdoor Unit
For a simplified installation, the Mono-Bloc option is an all-in-one system removing the need for an indoor hydrobox. Heat is directly transferred from the outside air via the mono-bloc unit to the underfloor heating circuit, radiators or fan coil units.

INDOOR HYDROBOX (only Applicable to Altherma Bi-Bloc Systems)
The hydrobox is a wall-mounted indoor unit that transfers heat to the water circulating in the underfloor heating circuit, radiators or fan coil units (and also to the domestic hot water tank if this is included in your system).

DAIKIN ALTHERMA HOT WATER TANK
Designed for low energy consumption, the water inside the storage tank is primarily warmed by using thermal energy from the outside air using a heat exchanger connected to the heat pump.
