Cutting-Edge Design for Maximum Comfort
The Sharp ZHU heat pump doesn’t just bring efficiency; it also introduces innovative features designed for homeowner comfort. Its Plasmacluster technology stands out by actively neutralizing airborne bacteria and viruses. This purification system works to eliminate mold and other contaminants, ensuring cleaner, fresher air inside the home. Unlike other heat pumps, Sharp’s Plasmacluster offers unparalleled air quality control, perfect for families concerned about the health implications of indoor air.
Another impressive feature is the Coanda airflow control, which directs air strategically around the room to prevent uncomfortable drafts. This ensures that every corner of the space benefits from uniform temperature control. By optimizing the airflow, the Sharp ZHU creates a consistently comfortable environment, even when the heat pump is working under full load.
Eco-Friendly and Quiet Operation
For the eco-conscious homeowner, the Sharp ZHU heat pump is an ideal solution. The R-32 refrigerant not only reduces the carbon footprint but also allows the system to consume less electricity, contributing to long-term sustainability. Moreover, despite its high performance, the system operates at impressively low noise levels, making it perfect for homes where quiet operation is a priority.
The interior unit’s sound pressure is as low as 22 dB(A), ensuring that the system runs almost silently, while the exterior unit produces 49 dB(A), ensuring it doesn’t disturb the neighborhood.
Reliable Warranty and Peace of Mind
To add even more value, this Sharp ZHU installation comes with a 10-year warranty on parts, compressor, and labor. This extensive coverage offers homeowners peace of mind, knowing that their investment is protected for the long haul. AirGreen also offers an extended 10-10-10 warranty, guaranteeing optimal performance for a decade.
