<p>At first glance, the combination of ice storage and a heat pump may seem contradictory. However, this synergy offers a highly efficient, economical, and <a href="https://www.irena.org/-/media/Files/IRENA/Agency/Publication/2020/Nov/IRENA_Innovation_Outlook_TES_2020.pdf">sustainable solution </a>for the heating of buildings, as well as for air conditioning and cooling – which is becoming increasingly important due to more frequent extreme weather and hotter summers. aquatherm provides the corrosion-free <a href="https://www.aquatherm.de/en-gb/solutions-products/products/aquatherm-blue/">aquatherm blue</a> plastic pipe system for connecting ice storage tanks to heat pumps and for piping the hydraulic modules. The highly efficient <a href="https://www.aquatherm.de/en-gb/solutions-products/products/aquatherm-black/">aquatherm black</a> is used for surface heating and cooling. Additionally, the insulated <a href="https://www.aquatherm.de/en-gb/solutions-products/products/aquatherm-energy/">aquatherm energy </a>pipe system is available for longer distances from the ice storage tank to the heat pump.</p>
<p>The principle of an ice storage tank in combination with a heat pump is based on the use of the latent thermal energy that is released during the phase transition from water to ice. The intelligent combination of different technologies creates a system that is both energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. These systems are an attractive option not only for large commercial buildings but also for private residences, helping to reduce heating costs and improve sustainability in the long term.</p>

<p><span>The construction industry, architects, planners, and installers are faced with the major task of renovating existing buildings to make them more energy-efficient in order to implement climate protection goals, sustainability and the energy transition. This also largely applies to the heating systems. Heat pumps only achieve their highest efficiency when they are operated in combination with </span><a href="https://www.aquatherm.de/en-gb/solutions-products/applications/surface-heating-and-cooling/">surface heating systems</a><span>.

<p>The key factor for decarbonisation and energy transition, is to renovate buildings to be more energy efficient. A key component in this process is the choice of heating system. Here, the main focus is on the public to switch to the use of a heat pump. But this view is too short-sighted. In this blog, we will discuss why a surface heating system should be installed first and what advantages this brings to the environment and it’s end customers.</p>
