Henco, the perfect fit for heat pump installations

Why Henco multilayer pipes and high-quality synthetic fittings are the ideal choice for heat pump installations

Where refrigerant lines between outdoor and indoor units used to be the standard, today we see a clear shift towards systems with water connections, such as monoblock heat pumps. The increasing use of more environmentally friendly, but flammable refrigerants (such as propane – R290) leads to stricter safety requirements. As a result, manufacturers are increasingly integrating the refrigerant circuit fully into the outdoor unit.

From the outdoor unit onwards, Henco multilayer pipes can be used to create a safe, reliable, and efficient hydraulic system indoors. This way, you combine maximum performance with ease of installation and peace of mind for every heat pump installation.

Key advantages for installers choosing Henco in heat pump installations:

• Simpler and faster work, significantly easing installation

• Reduced risk: no more system combinations required, worry-free pressing, ...

• Flexibility during installation thanks to the extensive Henco range

Key technical advantages of Henco products:

• Low thermal conductivity: Henco multilayer pipes have low thermal conductivity, minimizing heat loss in the piping system. This supports efficient heat pump operation and contributes to a favorable ΔT (temperature difference between supply and return).

• High flow due to low resistance: Thanks to the smooth inner surface, the pipes offer minimal resistance, ensuring optimal water flow. This helps maintain the required flow rate and a stable ΔT.

• Perfectly suited for hydraulic systems: Multilayer pipes are highly suitable for water-based (hydraulic) installations.

• Corrosion-free and low maintenance: Unlike metal pipes, multilayer pipes are fully corrosion-resistant, increasing system reliability and minimizing maintenance.

• Long service life: Their robust structure and resistance to wear and external influences make multilayer pipes a durable solution for long-term use.

• Controlled expansion and reduced noise: The aluminum layer ensures controlled thermal expansion, reducing stress in the installation and preventing noises such as ticking and cracking.
