Accessories
Dimplex Heat Pumps use a variety of accessories, which are available from our suppliers and contractors – please click Where to Buy or Stockists for more details of these contractors and installers.
Heat Distribution System
Dimplex provide a range of pre-configured hydraulic models to match specific heat pumps’ requirements, simplifying the connection to the heating systems and offering the option of flexible expansion for domestic hot water and additional heating circuits.
KPV25 – Compact Manifold
Allows connection between the heat pump, buffer tank and a single heating circuit, simplifying the installation and reducing space.
WWM25 – Hot Water Module
Allows connection between the heat pump and domestic hot water cylinder or second heating circuit.
VTB25 – Manifold Bar
Allows simultaneous connection of the compact manifold and hot water module.
Buffer Tanks
Connection of a buffer tank ensures minimum compressor run-times and minimum water flow rates through the heat pump to maintain optimum efficiency. A buffer tank is essential for Air Source Heat Pumps, as it provides the energy source for the defrosting cycle.
Combined Buffer Tank and DHW cylinder
The Dimplex PWS332UK combined buffer tank and cylinder provides the
ideal solution where floor space is limited, including both a 300L hot
water cylinder and 100L buffer tank.
For the LI ME/LI TE/LI TEH
ranges, a matching 140L under heat pump buffer cylinder is available,
matching the standard design and saving space.
For the SI MEK
range, a matching 100L under heat pump buffer cylinder is available
(PSP100E) matching the standard design and saving space.
Dimplex Hot Water Cylinders
Dimplex provide a range of unvented hot water cylinders, sized correctly
for the maximum heating capacity of the heat pump.
An integrated
temperature sensor is connected to the heat pump manager, allowing the
heat pump to automatically manage the production of hot water when
required.
Dimplex heat pump cylinders are fully UK approved for G3
building regulations.
For the SI MEK range a 400L hot water
cylinder (WWSP442EUK) is available, matching the standard design.
Air Ducting
Aluminium Rain-guard RSG500 – specially developed for Dimplex Air-to-Water heat pumps to ensure air flow rates and air pressure losses are maintained within required specifications.
Sealing collar DMK500
Rubber gasket for vibration-free connection of air ducts to heat pump, includes screw-fastening frame.
LKL – LKKL – LKB
Thermally and acoustically insulated glass reinforced concrete air ducts are available for the LI ME and LI TE heat pumps in a range of sizes and configurations.
Ground collector accessories
For ground source heat pumps, a range of ground collector accessory packages are available, to simplify the installation and connection to the heat pump. These are specifically matched to the flow rate and pressure requirements of each heat pump model.
