Air-to-Air DOAS Heat Pumps

To enhance indoor air quality (IAQ) to the highest extent, bringing in 100% outdoor filtered air to an indoor space is essential. That’s where Dedicated Outdoor Air Systems (DOAS) come in — ensuring that as much outdoor as possible is coming indoors.

On top of a DOAS system, to maximize system flexibility and operations, adding heat-pump capabilities is the answer. Thus, a DOAS heat pump is an excellent choice for improving IAQ, energy efficiency and cost savings.

Air-to-air DOAS heat pumps take energy from the outside air and transfer it to an airstream that will be delivered directly to a building for space conditioning. These systems work in all climates, including the cold weather of the New York City metro area.

Addison FrostShield

FrostShield is a revolutionary new mechanical and unit control technology that not only extends the operating range of air-source heat pumps, but also removes the need for the unit to enter defrost mode during heating operation. This feature extends the life of HVAC equipment, has the potential to save a tremendous amount of electrical energy, and improves occupant comfort.

• Normal operation: The air-source heat pump operates as it normally would when in heating mode sending fresh, clean air into the building.
• FrostShield Detection: As conditions near frosting levels, FrostShield detects outdoor coil temperature levels and determines the precise amount of hot discharge gas needed to prevent frost from forming.
• FrostShield Protection: FrostShield maintains the coil temperature above the threshold where moisture condenses and frost forms. This prevents the unit from switching to cooling mode, saving energy.

Benefits of Addison FrostShield

• Uninterrupted Comfort: FrostShield allows uninterrupted operation of energy-efficient electric air-source heat-pump heating to continuously deliver fresh, clean air.
• Green Technology: FrostShield is the only air-source heat pump technology that can be applied to continuous heating of ventilation air without relying on supplemental heat from wasteful strip heaters or fossil fuel.
• Energy Savings: Without having to switchover to defrost, enormous amounts of energy are saved by not having to utilize heat from the building to clear the outdoor coils.
• Wider Range of Applications: FrostShield allows operation in the coldest climates where heat pumps are not traditionally applied without the need for a backup heat source, such as a furnace or electric heat.
