The innovative air and water cooling and heating system uses the seawater of the Atlantic Ocean as heat source and heat sink. During hot summer months, pre-cooled water is created by pumping filtered sea water through plate heat exchangers to a primary pre-cooling water circuit. (...) The chillers can also produce hot

water for winter heating and pre-heated domestic water for washing. Some chillers are designed to produce both chilled and hot water simultaneously. This results in significant electrical savings when both hot and chilled water are required.
