ABSTRACT:
An economical full capacity integrated heat pump water system which utilizes the basic components of conventional heat pump systems and a hot water heat exchanger incorporated in the system. The invention may be operated in three refrigerant flow configurations, with five associated operational modes. In one configuration, the refrigerant flow is from the compressor, through the hot water heat exchanger, through the outdoor heat exchanger, through an expansion device, through the indoor heat exchanger and back to the compressor. In a second configuration, the refrigerant flow is from the compressor, through the hot water heat exchanger, through the indoor heat exchanger, through an expansion device, through the outdoor heat exchanger, and back to the compressor. In a third configuration, for the water heating only mode, the refrigerant flow is from the compressor, through the hot water heat exchanger, through an expansion device designed specifically for the range of refrigerant temperatures for hot water heating, through the outdoor heat exchanger, and back to the compressor.
