Installation of Oekoboilers

A crucial step to ensure the full efficiency and longevity of the device is to have the Oekoboiler installed by a professional. A correctly installed heat pump boiler not only achieves significant energy savings but also ensures reliable and long-lasting hot water supply. Choosing the right installation location, properly connecting the components, and optimal settings play a decisive role in this.

Installation Room Requirements

A net air volume of approx. 20 m³ is required for the optimal operation of an Oekoboiler without additional air ducts. This value ensures sufficient air circulation, which is crucial for the efficient operation of a heat pump boiler. Thanks to the diverse products on offer, a suitable solution can almost always be found for installing a heat pump boiler, even in less optimal locations. If required, it can be equipped with a sophisticated air circulation system that offers additional benefits. For example, in winter, the waste heat from an existing heating system can be used for efficient operation. In summer, the heat pump boiler can also serve as a cooling aid. It lowers the room air temperature by extracting heat. This contributes not only to hot water preparation but also to climate control. Flexible solutions are also possible in very confined spaces. The supply air can be drawn in from outside. The exhaust air can be discharged outside. This allows a heat pump boiler to be used even in rooms with limited volume without compromising efficiency. This adaptability makes the heat pump boiler a versatile solution suitable for a wide variety of installation situations.

Installation Process

Installation usually takes no longer than five to eight hours. The heat pump boiler is then ready for operation.

1. Removal of the old boiler

The first step is the professional dismantling of the old boiler. This includes draining residual water, disconnecting the power supply, and disassembling existing connections. This creates space for the new Oekoboiler.

2. Room Preparation

Preparation includes ensuring adequate ventilation so that the system can operate without additional air ducts. Space requirements and accessibility to connections are also checked during this step.

3. Installation of the new Oekoboiler

The final step is the installation of a new heat pump boiler. With Oekoboilers, subsequent commissioning is flexible, as we deliver them in auto mode (plug-and-play). This means no salesperson or installer is required after the heat pump boiler has been connected.

Possible Applications of Oekoboilers

Basically, four scenarios are conceivable for Oekoboilers.

Laundry Room

Washing and Drying

1. Laundry drying in the laundry room
2. Ventilation of the laundry room (hygienic single-pipe system)

This serves to dry laundry and ventilate the laundry room. It is a hygienic single-pipe system.

Cellar

Cooling and Drying

1. Storage room or wine cellar cooling (constant temperature)
2. Circulation and expulsion of humid air

Another possible option is to use the heat pump boiler to cool a storage room or wine cellar. The humid air is circulated and expelled.

Boiler Room

Cooling and Drying

1. Storage room or wine cellar cooling (constant temperature)
2. Removal, conversion, and ventilation of warm boiler room air

In this option, too, the wine cellar or storage room is cooled. The difference here is that the warm boiler room air is removed and converted.

Technical Room

Utilize Waste Heat

Hot water preparation from warm boiler room air:

1. Ventilation of the warm boiler room through additionally generated circulating air and by drawing in fresh air:

2. Controlled cooling of the boiler room:
By drawing in fresh air, the boiler room is additionally ventilated by circulating air. This achieves controlled cooling of the room.

Maintenance and Care

Descaling: How is it done, and how often is it necessary?

To simplify regular descaling, Oekoboilers have an easily accessible service flange. Due to the gentle heating of the water, a heat pump boiler forms less limescale compared to conventional electric boilers anyway. Nevertheless, descaling should be carried out regularly. This protects the components from deposits and maintains the energy efficiency of the heat pump boiler.

Cleaning and Safety Checks: What to look for?

You don't have to worry about safety. All Oekoboilers are equipped with intelligent protection and safety valves. During safety checks, the primary focus is to ensure that all connections are tight, the insulation is intact, and the safety valve is in perfect condition. For cleaning, wiping the exterior surfaces with a mild detergent is sufficient.

Advantages of Stainless Steel Boilers in terms of Durability and Maintenance.

Unlike other materials, stainless steel boilers are characterized by their durability and ease of maintenance. Their thermal conductivity is lower than that of enameled steel, making them an excellent insulating material. The double-walled construction provides additional safety and helps minimize heat loss. Furthermore, an additional insulating layer improves energy efficiency and shortens heating time. Stainless steel boilers are also characterized by their corrosion resistance. They are environmentally friendly, recyclable, and do not release substances that could be detrimental to water quality. These advantages make stainless steel heat pump boilers a high-quality and low-maintenance solution.

Frequently Asked Questions

Oekoboilers provide effective protection against Legionella through an automatic circuit that is activated every 14 days. This heats the water to a temperature of 65 degrees Celsius, at which Legionella are reliably killed. This function ensures that the water is hygienically perfect and offers reliable protection against health risks.

Thanks to the “plug-and-play” principle, commissioning by an installer is usually not necessary. The device is delivered with a preset auto mode with a target temperature of 55 degrees Celsius. After professional installation, the heat pump boiler can be used immediately. If fine adjustments are required, these can be made quite easily via the intuitive menu navigation or with the help of the operating manual. For individual adjustments, our customer service also offers telephone support. This saves time and additional costs.

Yes, the integration of our heat pump boilers into existing systems is possible without problems. Their flexible design and well-thought-out components allow for use in various applications.

The operation is two-stage. Solar power is generated from sunlight in the photovoltaic system, which then drives the heat pump boiler. This draws heat from the surroundings, compresses it, and transfers the recovered thermal energy to the domestic hot water. To maximize efficiency, excess solar energy can be stored or fed into the grid.

With a heat pump boiler, up to 80% energy can be saved in many cases. The heat from the ambient air is used efficiently. It is an innovative technology for reducing energy consumption and at the same time protecting the environment.

That depends on the individual situation and the conditions of the premises. Generally, the work is completed within five to eight hours.

That depends on the model. With our models 13 and 14, control via Wi-Fi and an app is possible. If this future-proof IoT (Internet Of Things) option is important to you, then these are the right boilers for you.

Conclusion

The professional installation of a heat pump boiler not only guarantees the flawless function of the device but also ensures maximum energy efficiency and longevity. Among other things, it ensures that all requirements for the installation room are met. Especially with particular challenges such as confined spaces or integration into existing systems, expert support is essential to ensure long-term benefits such as energy savings and operational safety.
