This is my first post so Hello,
I live in Andorra where it is very dry and very sunny, but in the winter it is cold (ski resort)
I am renovating a 140sqm house and cant get much advice locally (I will be the first heat store they have ever seen!!), so I am asking you all.
I am looking at a 1000ltr Akvaterm geo solar plus tank and want to feed it with Initially a heat pump and a wood burning stove for back up and chilly nights.

Similar to the "AKVA GEO hybrid wood boiler" displayed at the bottom of the webpage from Akvaterm
The main question is would the Daikin Altherma HT be able to feed direct to the tank? From what I can gather it would normally have a coil in the Daikin HW tank. Daikin Recommend a sealed system which I guess an Akvaterm is...just a 1000ltrs sealed system?
Also I assume the use of a charging valve like a laddomat 11-30 would be advisable as well to assist stratification.
I am open to other recommendations for heat pumps for use on a thermal store.
Many thanks in advance
Nik
