Abstract
Disclosed is a system for the production of hot or cold water including: a water reservoir suitable for supplying water to a thermal conditioning device, and/or to a tap; a refrigeration unit having heat exchangers, of which one of the two heat exchanger is immersed in a water receptacle; pipes providing communication between the water reservoir, the water receptacle, a water network, the tap and thermal conditioning devices. The system further includes a box body containing the refrigeration unit and a ventilation mechanism configured to generate an airflow passing through the heat exchangers of the refrigerating unit.
Claims14
System for producing hot or cold water comprising:
- a) a water reservoir comprising a first compartment suitable for supplying water to at least one thermal conditioning device, and a second compartment suitable for supplying water to at least one tap;
- b) at least one refrigeration unit comprising a first heat exchanger having a coil and a water receptacle wherein said coil is immersed;
- said at least one refrigeration unit comprising a second heat exchanger comprising a coil;
- wherein said refrigeration unit is completely disposed in a room comprising an opening in fluid communication with the outside of the room;
- c) first pipes hydraulically connected to the water receptacle of the first heat exchanger and suitable for being connected to the thermal conditioning device;
- d) second pipes hydraulically connected to the water receptacle of the first heat exchanger and suitable for being connected to a water network;
- and
- e) a box body suitable or being disposed in the room and containing said refrigerating unit;
- wherein the system comprises third pipes hydraulically connected to the water receptacle of the first heat exchanger of the refrigeration unit and to the first compartment or to the second compartment of the water reservoir;
- wherein said box body comprises:
- a first chamber wherein said first heat exchanger is disposed;
- a second chamber wherein said second heat exchanger is disposed;
- and a third chamber interposed between said first chamber and said second chamber;
- an inlet for the entrance of air from the room inside the first chamber;
- an outlet for the exit of air from the second chamber into the room;
- an intermediate opening for the exit of air from the third chamber;
- ventilation means configured to generate an airflow that enters the first chamber and flows toward the outlet or towards both the outlet and the intermediate opening.
