Representations of performance, part-load, and parasitics are updated in the new AHRI 600 and CSA standards covering water/brine- source heat pumps to align with seasonal performance values used in equipment comparisons and incentive programs. Ground-source heat pump application scopes are expanded to include district, geopiles and wastewater systems.
