Samsung VRF Heat pumps

System overview

A split-stage DHW generation strategy preheats mains cold water to ~50°C using a high-efficiency hydro unit.

A 150 kW low-temperature module handles the primary thermal load, operating at maximum SCOP for optimal efficiency.

The preheated water is then boosted to up to 80°C by a high-temperature twin-stage hydro module.

Separating the heating stages delivers a significantly higher overall SCOP than high-temperature systems alone—cutting energy use, lowering operational costs, and reducing environmental impact over the system’s lifespan.
