New school in Bíldudalur takes a big step!

Heating the new school

Part of the heating system of a new school in Bíldudalur is now in full use. In the project, three Samsung EHS R290 heat pumps were installed and commissioned, providing both underfloor heating and domestic hot water for the building. Getting heat into the floors at this stage of construction creates the conditions for indoor work to continue without delay.

The building is well advanced, and this milestone is an important step in ensuring stable and economical operation for the future. The emphasis was on choosing a solution that combines energy efficiency, environmental responsibility and a simple system design.

An efficient and environmentally friendly solution

R290 heat pumps were chosen because of clear advantages. They use a natural refrigerant (propane) with a very low carbon footprint that meets today's sustainability requirements. The system uses heat from the outdoor air to heat both the building and the water, which results in lower electricity consumption and lower operating costs. Combining underfloor heating and domestic hot water in one system reduces the number of technical solutions, saves space and simplifies maintenance.

The overall solution complies with current and foreseeable regulations and supports long-term thinking in public buildings, where reliability and operating efficiency are crucial.
