Heat Pumps

A heat pump takes heat from its source at low temperature and discharges it at a higher temperature, allowing the unit to supply more heat than the equivalent energy supplied to the heat pump.

This category is for the science and technology of the process. Product or service suppliers should submit their sites to the appropriate Business category, shown as an @linked sub category, or a related category.
