Design Considerations for Thermal Controls

Customization is key to optimum performance

The ambient environment surrounding a thermal control can have a big effect on how the device operates. No two application environments are exactly alike, even though the applications may share a similar function. The materials used for an appliance as well as many other design considerations vary from product to product.

Things Every Heat Pump Manufacturer Should Know About Thermal Controls

Believe it or not, the recent pandemic turned out to be an effective tool in the fight against climate change. Apparently, a number of scientists with time on their hands decided to solve the problem heat pumps often encountered in cold weather. As a result heat pump sales have skyrocketed and become a valuable tool in the effort to lower fossil fuel emissions. Its a good thing they worked on these problems because new governmental standards and regulations have been difficult to meet using more traditional furnace and air-conditioner-based HVAC systems.
