The Hydro comes with a built-in weather compensation probe, designed to ensure precise monitoring of inside and outside temperatures.

The Hydro is best managed using the Alpha Smartech controller, enabling users to programme their heating systems to suit their lifestyle and desired comfort level from anywhere, thanks to a wireless thermostat. 

In addition, and to save installation time and space, the pre-plumbed 200-cylinder comes fitted with a fully wired control panel. The only requirements are connections to the outside heat pump using a two-core cable and a 13A power supply. The Smartech thermostat can then be wirelessly connected. An optional further heating zone can be served directly from the cylinder with the second zone kit valve and Smartech expansion kit.

Alpha's new heat pump, which is MCS certified, and Connect and Notify approved, features:

  • 5,8,12,16kW single phase outputs, paired with a 210l pre-plumbed cylinder with prefixed controls
  • Top heat loss Energy Class B – 56W, making the cylinder more energy efficient
  • Fully modulating Grundfos UPMXL 15-125 pump fitted for all system sizes
  • High-grade 316 stainless steel cylinder and manifold with all brass connections
  • Soft blanket high-grade insulation with zero GWP and ODP
  • 13A switched spur power connection drawing a maximum of 10.5A
  • Easy pipework connections and simple wiring

Daniel Wilden, Renewable Product Manager for Alpha, commented: “The Alpha Hydro offers those who are ready to embrace energy efficient technology the perfect solution to do so. With the Hydro heat pump able to operate at a lower temperature for longer, homeowners need no longer worry about turning their heating on and off to keep their homes at a desired level.

“The brains of the system will work to be as efficient as possible, always keeping the home at an ideal and even temperature. It is vital for installers to understand the requirements of this system as they will be obliged to ensure that it is set up correctly for optimum performance. Our training is available to assist installers in doing this.”
