At jilveta, directed by Alex Lee Whelton, we specialize in the technical implementation of high-efficiency air-to-air heat pump systems for the Cork region. Operating from 82 Upper Friars Rd, Turners Cross, our engineering focus is the transition from legacy resistive heating to thermodynamic heat transfer. Unlike traditional electric heaters that create thermal energy through high-resistance coils, our A+++ rated units utilize a refrigerant compression cycle to move heat from the external atmosphere into your interior space. This allows for a performance ratio where four kilowatts of thermal energy are delivered for every one kilowatt of electrical input, even when external temperatures in Turners Cross approach freezing.
Variable Inverter Compressor Mechanics
The core of our energy-efficient service at jilveta (VAT: IE3750668CH) is the integration of advanced inverter technology. Standard older systems operate on a binary on-off cycle, which creates significant inductive loads and thermal spiking. Our modern units utilize variable-speed compressors that modulate their frequency to match the exact thermal load of the room. This mechanical precision prevents the energy waste associated with constant cycling and maintains a stable internal climate with minimal electrical draw. By operating at lower, consistent speeds, the system maximizes its Seasonal Coefficient of Performance (SCOP), meeting the rigorous standards of Part L of the Irish Building Regulations.

| Operational Threshold | Effective thermal extraction down to -15°C. |
| Compressor Logic | DC Inverter modulation for variable load management. |
| Refrigerant Type | R32 Low-GWP (Global Warming Potential) gas. |
Hygrometric Management and Latent Heat
In the damp climate of the south of Ireland, managing latent heat is a mechanical necessity. Our systems at 82 Upper Friars Rd include a dedicated dehumidification mode that extracts several liters of moisture from the air daily without requiring a significant temperature shift. This stabilizes the relative humidity in your Cork property, making the air feel naturally warmer and preventing the growth of black mold on structural surfaces. By reducing the moisture content, the system improves the overall thermal conductivity of the air, allowing the space to reach its target temperature more efficiently.
Statutory F-Gas Compliance and Maintenance
Alex Lee Whelton is a fully F-Gas certified professional, which is a legal requirement for the handling of modern refrigerants in Ireland. Our technical maintenance protocol includes a thorough audit of gas pressures, heat exchanger hygiene, and electrical terminal integrity. We treat every unit as a high-precision mechanical asset that requires annual calibration to maintain its A+++ rating. Regular deep cleaning of the antimicrobial filters ensures that the heat transfer across the internal coil remains optimal, preventing the compressor from overworking and extending the mechanical lifespan of the unit.
