EHS Heat Pump Boiler
Lower Power Use and Carbon Emissions than Existing Products Government to Deploy 3.5 Million UnitsSamsung Electronics (005930.KS) said Thursday it will launch the Eco Heating System (EHS) Heat Pump Boiler in Korea, a product with significantly higher efficiency than conventional boilers, in line with the government's heating electrification program.
The EHS heat pump uses ambient air heat to generate more than four times the heat relative to the electric energy input, which can be used for indoor heating and hot water. Compared with conventional fossil-fuel-based boilers that have energy efficiency below 100%, it can significantly reduce electricity consumption and carbon emissions.
The EHS Heat Pump Boiler generates heat energy through high-efficiency refrigerant compression technology, producing hot water at 70 degrees Celsius even at minus 15 degrees Celsius. Its Seasonal Coefficient of Performance (SCOP), which indicates heating and cooling performance, is 4.9 based on floor heating. This means it can produce nearly five times the heating energy relative to the power it consumes.
The new product also uses R32 refrigerant, which has a Global Warming Potential (GWP) 68% lower than the existing R410A refrigerant, reducing carbon emissions. It is equipped with electric heaters and anti-freeze valves to prevent heat exchanger freezing and pipe icing. This prevents a sharp drop in outlet water temperature even in extreme cold of minus 25 degrees Celsius and helps avoid equipment breakdowns caused by freezing.
Samsung Electronics also improved outdoor unit noise by applying a saw-tooth fan structure that reduces air resistance to achieve minimum noise of 35 decibels while maintaining strong airflow. The design features a dark gray color and a grille structure that does not expose the interior.
Samsung Electronics plans to support government policy through the new product launch. The government recently announced a plan to deploy 3.5 million heat pump units across the country to cut 5.18 million tons of greenhouse gases by 2035.
