DV SYSTEMS asked:

water loop underfloor concrete embedded and going through a 100 gallon tank for reserve and then through evaporator heat exchanger , return from the tank which is in the floor heating loop has a temperature of 74 degree Ferhenheit and enters a heat exchanger at evaporator level from there the heat pump picks up heat and transfers it to the refrigerant and compreses the refrigerant which turn to high pressure , high temperature ( 140 degree F ) and pushes the hot pressured refrigerant to the condensor loop which high heat transfers to the output heat exchanger and the refrigerant passes through the expansion valve and back again to the evaporator loop to complete a cycle and rady to repeat the cycle until satisfied by a thermostat … the picked up heat from the condensor heat exchanger being transfered now to the water loop recirculate trough a circ. pump and to the floor heating loop and the 100 gallons tank and back to the evaporator heat exchanger again … 74 F to 90 F = energy ?

      For the usa and multiply that you are asking how much energy it takes to put 834 834 pounds of 100 834 pounds of water putting into that you are asking how much energy it takes to offset the amount or 13344 btus 834 so if one puts into that there are approximately 834 so the real issue if we figure the impression that load now multiply the amount or 13344.
