Testimonial

“As an architect, we know the importance of selecting the right hot water unit. Extensive research led us to install a Stiebel Eltron Heat Pump with Smart Element during the renovation of our house.

We have found this unit to be quiet with our electricity usage dropping by about 30% from our usage prior to the renovation. On top of this, we never seem to run out of hot water.”

FAQ

1. What is the difference between the WWK 222/302 heat pumps and the H-models?

The WWK 222/302 H hot water heat pumps have a smart element situated in the top of the hot water cylinder. This smart element will switch on along with the heat pump function when a high volume of hot water is drawn off from the hot water tank. This smart element will assist the heat pump to heat approximately the top 80 litres. This smart element function is designed to aid hot water recovery for high use of hot water.

2. What is the active defrost feature on the STIEBEL ELTRON hot water heat pumps?

The WWK 222/302 (H) hot water heat pumps have an active defrost function that switches on when the frost monitor detects a build-up of hoar frost at the evaporator. When frost is detected, it will switch the fan off but will keep the compressor running. Hot vapour is directed to the evaporator and the condensor is shut off, this hot gas will begin to actively defrost the evaporator.

3. Do you manufacture a heat pump with an element?

Yes, the H-models, WWK 222 H and WWK 302 H, are heat pumps with smart elements. These models have a 1.7 kW element that when engaged will heat approximately the top 80 litres of the tank.

4. Can the heat pump create hot water in the cold without an element?

A STIEBEL ELTRON hot water heat pump can make use of the ambient heat in the air even in temperatures as low as -5°C without an element. The heat pumps have an active defrost function that can control any icing that occurs at lower air temperatures. The active defrost function will remove any hoar frost that occurs at the evaporator and then reverts back to hot water generation mode.

5. What is the current draw of the hot water heat pumps?

2.3 Amps on 240 Volts

6. Does a heat pump make a lot of noise when operating?

Our heat pumps have an encased compressor design to reduce noise. Heat pumps do make a sound when they are operating which is the sound of the compressor and fan. The noise from a heat pump is dependent on a number of factors, we encourage our customers to read the operating and installation guide to also take into account the positioning of the heat pump when installing. STIEBEL ELTRON tests and measures Sound Power and Pressure using the European Standard EN12102. Learn more about our sound emission testing.

7. How often should the condensate drain be checked on the hot water heat pumps?

The condensate drain and the top of the condensate pan should be checked at least monthly to remove any blockages that may have occurred via debris.

8. How big is the tank of the WWK 222 hot water heat pump?

220 litres.

9. How big is the tank of the WWK 302 hot water heat pump?

302 litres.

10. Can the STIEBEL hot water heat pumps be installed indoors?

Yes, these heat pumps have been designed to be installed either indoors or outdoors. A clear space of 13 m3 is required for indoor installations to allow for the cold air from the refrigeration system to diffuse.

11. Can the WWK be used for in-slab and radiator hydronic heating?

The WWK range of heat pumps are not designed for room heating applications. STIEBEL ELTRON have a range of air source hydronic heat pumps in addition to geothermal hydronic heat pumps designed for hydronic heating.
