Dutch wholesaler chooses Haier heat pumps

NETHERLANDS: Haier MRV air-to-air heat pumps are being installed in branches of Dutch HVAC product wholesaler Wasco to replace gas boilers. 

The 260m2 Wasco branch in Haarlem is the latest of the company’s 36 branches to benefit from a Haier MRV installation with an MRV5-H heat pump VRF continuous heating outdoor unit and four 9kW 4-way cassettes.

“We are aiming to replace gas boilers with Haier MRV heat pump systems in all our shops to provide the best in cooling and heating, and reduce our carbon footprint as part of our sustainability plan,” confirmed Wasco technical advisor Jan Van Zwolle.

“This has been completed in ten Wasco branches already and we are delighted with the results. The rising cost of fossil fuels made choosing the energy saving benefits of Haier’s MRV heat pump heating and cooling systems an easy decision,” he added.

Wasco has experience of Haier equipment, being a stockist of the Chinese manufacturer’s split and multi-split units.
