VKIN UCHA-60HTD5-ton heat-recovery heat pump for 3-phase facilities

A 460V three-phase outdoor unit paired with a 277V ducted air handler. It cools, heats and dehumidifies the flower room in one refrigerant circuit, pulling up to 710 pints of water a day while hot-gas reheat holds room temperature. No electric reheat strips, and it heats down to -13°F.

Hot-gas reheat

Dry the room, not the plants.

  1. Cool & dehumidify

    The main coil pulls water out of the air until the room hits its humidity setpoint (30–90% RH).

  2. Recover the heat

    Instead of dumping it outdoors, hot refrigerant gas runs through a dedicated reheat coil: 22 MBH of free heat.

  3. Hold temperature

    Supply air leaves at room temperature (50–86°F setpoint), so lights-off dehumidification doesn’t chill the canopy.
