The H5 panel has been developed so that a solid fuel appliance could be linked into a central heating system with a ground or air source heat pump, enabling both to provide energy to heat the hot water, under floor heating and/or radiators.

The panel controls the balance between the fire and the heat pump ensuring the heat pump is only used as a top up when needed and the solid fuel appliance provides the rest of the energy. This makes full use of both appliances efficiently and does not waste any energy and is therefore more cost effective.

Ground or air source heat pumps work more efficiently at lower temperatures, with the solid fuel appliance adding the extra energy to lift the temperature of the flow water serving the heating system and hot water recharge.

When the solid fuel appliance and the ground or air source heat pump are run together the H5 panel goes into link up mode. The energy from the ground or air source heat pump is passed into the return pipe work of the solid fuel appliance, which continues to lift the temperature and then passes it on to serve the heating system.

In this mode when the flow temperature has reached the desired level the solid fuel appliance takes priority and switches off and closes down the pipe work from the ground or air source heat pump.

Should the solid fuel appliance be unattended and cool down, the ground or air source heat pump takes over heating the system and closes down the circuit to the solid fuel appliance to prevent heat being wasted.

Either of the appliances can be used separately to run the system and the one that is not firing or working remains cold.
