The absolute best application is new construction applications. If the home is insulated to approximately 10-12 btu's per sq ft of floor space.
While this is the best application you can still add to an existing hydronic system with heat losses up to 20-22 btu-s per sq. ft. efficiently as long as you plan on subsidizing with an oil, gas, electric or wood boiler. The benefit of going to this type of heating system is much of the heating season you can heat with the AWHP at costs less than even natural gas and can pre-heat your domestic hot water to temperatures close to your desired faucet temperatures by taking advantage of the higher COP of the AWHP during days into the mid 20's F.
Watch for more information on this subject and look for technical information on our website. I will advise you when the website info becomes available.
