Abstract:
1. A heat pump system comprising: a heat source unit having a first usage unit operable to perform a hot-water supply operation in which an aqueous medium is heated by heat radiation of refrigerant in a first usage-side heat exchanger, the first usage unit being connected to the heat source unit with the first usage-side heat exchanger functioning as a radiator of refrigerant when the heat-source-side switching mechanism is in the evaporating operation state; and a second usage unit operable to perform the second usage unit being connected to the heat source unit with the second usage-side heat exchanger functioning the first usage unit and the second usage unit being incapable of individually selecting and performing the hot-water supply operation, the air-cooling operation, or the air-warming operation, and the heat pump system being capable of switching to and operating in a thermoregulation mode different from the switched state of the heat-source-side switching mechanism in response to a thermoregulation mode command issued by
