Air to Air Heatpump Units
What is an air to air heatpump?
An air to air heatpump looks like and operates in the same way as an air conditioning unit, however, with one key difference. An air to air heatpump unit is designed to heat but with the ability to be reversed to cool. An air conditioning unit does the exact opposite.
The air to air heatpump is completely independent from your existing heating system and will assist your current system in achieving room temperature.
The air to air heatpump supplies heat only and does not provide hot water (see air to water heatpump).
How does it work?
Outside air is drawn through a heat exchanger housed within the outdoor unit commonly known as the evaporator. Heat is extracted from the air and used to heat a refrigerant circuit which has a very low boiling point. The heated refrigerant is then compressed producing superheated refrigerant which then passes to a second heat exchanger called a condenser which is in fact the indoor wall mounted unit. The heat produced is then pushed out into the room by means of a fan house within the indoor unit. Once the heat transfer takes place, the cooled refrigerant then passes through an expansion valve which changes its state back to a vapour and the pressure is reduced. The process can then begin again.

Energy Saving Controls
It seems that life revolves around technology nowadays and the heating world is no exception. Gone are the days of the simple on/off time switch to activate the heating and hot water systems. It's all about energy efficiency nowadays, conserving energy usage and lowering running costs. Also, most people have a mobile smart phone or iPad, laptop or computer and people in general have busier lives.
Modern smart controls are both designed with energy efficiency in mind and can also be activated remotely from an electronic device like a smart phone or tablet.
And modern software is now so advanced that any electrical device can be remotely accessed and controlled.

Fire Damper Testing & Replacement
Air Management Solutions Ltd can provide an essential fire safety service to your fire dampers. This will comply with BS5588-9 code of practice for ventilation and air conditioning ductwork.
The British Standard 9999:2008 ‘Code of Practice for Fire Safety in the Design, Management & Use of Buildings’ defines a Fire Damper as a: “Mechanical device that is operated automatically or manually and is designed to prevent the passage of fire and, together with its frame, is capable of meeting the fire resistance criterion for integrity for a stated period of time”.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order it is a legal requirement to test fire dampers at regular intervals in accordance with fire safety in the design, management and use of buildings code of practice (BS:9999 2017), using a method known as ‘drop testing’. Previously, under BS:9999 2008, fire dampers were categorised according to their type; a small number needed to be drop tested only every two years; now all fire dampers must be drop tested and cleaned annually.
