Energy renovation of multi-family buildings is essential primarily due to the high savings that follow the investment. In addition to renovating the facades and envelopes of multi-family buildings, one of the priority tasks is the renovation of the heating system, for which we at KRONOTERM are specialists. This is confirmed by the owners of 18 prestigious apartments in Lannach, Austria.

Modern lifestyle and rapid technological progress result in increasing demands for renewable energy sources and additional concern for nature. Multi-family buildings are complex systems that provide our experts with over 50 years of experience with the opportunity to develop advanced solutions for better user well-being. When making decisions about such an important investment as home heating, we expect and hope to provide our customers with better living conditions for at least the next 20 years. After all, the expected lifespan of our heat pumps with average use is somewhere around 20 years.
We all know that heating hot water with electric heaters is energy-consuming and that the use of renewable energy sources is one of the top priorities in the fight against climate change. The biggest obstacle to using a different hot water source is the distribution of hot water in a multi-family building. Therefore, in the prestigious apartments in Lannach, they opted for our air/water heat pump WPL-70-K1 HTT/HK, which provides heating, cooling, and hot water preparation. With the use of modern technologies and clean energy sources, their contribution to the green transformation was accessible and financially effective for all residents. In addition to savings, they also ensured good neighborly relations and a peaceful sleep, which, along with a pleasant temperature in the apartment, is a key factor for comfort during the day and especially at night. The WPL-70-K1 HTT/HK heat pump is so quiet that the owners of prestigious apartments have only heard their peaceful thoughts since its installation.
In buildings with a different heating method, the supply of thermal energy is not the same in all parts of the building. The result can be too cold apartments on higher floors or on the shady side, which could significantly affect the quality of living and the well-being of residents. Choosing a good and technologically advanced heating system can prevent significant deviations in the quality of living in multi-family buildings. In addition to uniform heating, KRONOTERM heat pumps also adapt to the needs of the building. And this is one of the main reasons why users choose our heat pumps.
The owners in Lannach have been carefree since choosing our heat pump in 2014, not only because of heating and low costs but also regarding the maintenance of the heating system. Maintenance for heating with a heat pump is practically nonexistent. Only an annual check-up is recommended. The WPL 70-K1 HTT/HK heat pump has built-in weather protection. In the case of apartments in Austria, it is placed on the roof, but despite this, there was no need for any additional protection for rain, hail, or snow during installation or later. Roof installation also does not affect the architecture of the building, is unobtrusive, and, due to similar elements with the architecture of the building, actually blends quite well with the surroundings.
Every resident in a multi-family building deserves comfort, and it is right that, at the same time, they contribute to reducing the impact on the environment and climate change. The WPL-70-K1 HTT/HK heat pump is suitable for heating all, even the most demanding multi-family buildings, especially those after thorough energy renovation. At that time, due to a lower required temperature regime, no interventions in heating elements are needed, and the boiler can be easily replaced with our heat pump.
