MEASURING INSTRUMENTS WERE INSTALLED IN TWO BUILDINGS AND THE ADVANTAGES OF HEAT PUMPS FOR WATER HEATING WERE CALCULATED BY A COMPUTER. IT WAS PROVED THAT WITH EQUIPMENT OF SUITABLE SIZE, CAREFUL INSTALLATION AND PROPER CONTROL, THE USE OF HEAT PUMPS WITH EITHER WATER OR AIR SOURCE, IN A DUAL-ENERGY HEATING SYSTEM, CAN GIVE A 50 TO 75% DECREASE IN ANNUAL CONSUMPTION IN FRANCE.
