Heat Pump Soft Starts
Varmetec provides soft starts for heat pumps — essential devices that reduce start-up current and mechanical stress on compressors and motors.
By controlling voltage on start-up, soft starts protect key components and extend system life. They also improve efficiency and help prevent nuisance tripping or power surges.
Our soft start range includes single- and three-phase models compatible with leading brands such as NIBE, Mitsubishi Electric, and Daikin. All products are genuine or high-quality equivalents meeting manufacturer performance standards.
Ideal for both new installations and retrofits, soft starts are a smart investment in system protection and long-term reliability.
With expert advice and fast UK shipping, Varmetec makes it simple to select the right soft start for your heat pump.
