The TCL THM16DF3dC Tri-Thermal Ultra AI monobloc is a highly efficient, new-generation 16 kW inverter air-to-water heat pump using natural refrigerant R290. The model provides heating, cooling and domestic hot water, delivers water temperatures of up to 80}C, and achieves an A+++ energy efficiency rating at both 35}C low-temperature and 55}C high-temperature operation.

The system is designed for reliable operation in harsh winter conditions, maintaining 100% heating capacity at an outdoor temperature of ?10}C and operating in heating mode at temperatures down to ?25}C. This makes it suitable for both new energy-efficient homes and upgrades to existing heating systems.

Inverter technology adjusts the output to match the building’s current requirements, while intelligent AI control analyses outdoor conditions and system operation to optimise water temperature and comfort. This reduces unnecessary electricity consumption and maintains more stable indoor temperatures.
