Introducing the New Range of Ultra-Quiet Ecodan Hot Water Heat Pumps

Back to Articles
Everyone knows how distracting a loud humming indoor unit can be. So in our industry, we commonly refer to how noisy a heat pump is based on the indoor unit sound levels. However, what is often overlooked is the sound level of the outdoor unit. Housing the compressor, it has the potential to create a significant level of unwanted noise.

High-density housing and noise levels

Mitsubishi Electric has always been at the forefront of improving technology including sound levels, to meet the ever-changing need of consumers. So it should come as no surprise that with the rapidly changing urban landscape to more high-density housing, Mitsubishi Electric has now specifically tackled outdoor sound levels.

Three times quieter than previous models

Ecodan has always been one of the quietest hot water heat pumps on the market. And with the introduction of the new ultra-quiet Ecodan Range, it has taken hot water heat pumps to the next level. These new models offer superb style, market-leading energy efficiency and sound levels. Designed especially for residential applications, the 6.0kW, 8.5kW and 11.2kW units are 3dBA quieter than previous models.




Flexibility with outdoor unit placement to keep neighbours happy

With higher density housing becoming more common in New Zealand, quiet outdoor operation is important especially if you want to keep your neighbours happy.

The new Ecodan Range features an industry-leading sound pressure level of 45dBA*, measured at a distance of 1m.

As a result, the system offers greater placement flexibility as the outdoor unit can now be located much closer to property boundaries. This makes the Ecodan Hot Water System ideal for areas sensitive to outdoor noise without disturbing the neighbours.

Our market-leading Ecodan Hot Water Heat Pump solutions are designed to provide a home with ultra-quiet, hot water heating and space heating with year-round energy efficiency and reliability.
