Haier to sell R290 heat pumps through Solar Danmark

DENMARK: Haier HVAC Solutions is partnering with Solar Danmark A/S to bring its latest R290 air-to-water heat pump portfolio to installers in Denmark.

Based in Vejen, Solar Danmark is a leading European distributor of electrical, heating and plumbing, ventilation, and climate and energy solutions.

In Denmark, Solar will sell Haier Monobloc, Hydro Split and All in One solutions, covering capacities from 6kW to 16kW. 

The portfolio is further strengthened by two new additions from Haier that address specific market needs: the Mini, available in 3.5kW and 5kW, has been developed for homes where installation space is limited. As the smallest heat pump available on the Danish market, Haier insists it provides a particularly compact solution for smaller properties and challenging installation environments. 

Solar Danmark will also offer Haier’s R290 commercial heat pumps in 26kW, 30kW, 35kW and 40kW capacities. 

Starting this autumn, Danish installers will be able to register for dedicated Haier product training at Solar’s facilities. 

The Haier heat pump range wasbeen successfully launched in connection with Solar’s Climate & Energy Day on Thursday (3 September).
