Abstract

A heat pump system and fluid distribution system are provided. The heat pump system comprises a heat exchanger installed in proximity to a portion of a fluid distribution system such that it affects the temperature of the fluid with that portion of the fluid distribution system. The fluid distribution system delivers fluid from one or more sources to one or more end users via one or more pipes. The fluid distribution system comprises a temperature controller configured to: receive measurements of the temperature of the fluid at one or more locations within the fluid distribution system; analyse the measurements to determine whether remedial action needs to be taken to control the temperature of the fluid within the fluid distribution system; and transmit a control signal to the heat pump system in response to determining that remedial action needs to be taken. The heat pump system further comprises a controller configured to: receive the control signal; and control the operation of the heat pump system in accordance with the control signal so as to control an amount of heat transferred between a refrigerant fluid within the heat exchanger and the fluid distribution system.
