ᐅ Air-to-Water Heat Pump for New Construction – Single-Family Home with Basement – Which Model?

Hello everyone,
The next big step in our new construction planning is coming up --> heating!
We have decided that we want an air-to-water heat pump combined with a central mechanical ventilation with heat recovery system due to various factors. Now, of course, the question arises:
- What is a good combination with a central mechanical ventilation with heat recovery system? Are there devices that work well together? What should we pay attention to?
- Which type (indoor installation / outdoor installation / split system)?
- Which manufacturer / which model?
- Other things to watch out for?
Information about our new build that might be relevant for the technical equipment:
- Construction is planned to start in February/March 2021, but the government subsidy application (e.g., BAFA funding) must be submitted on time
- Single-family house with basement – 150m² (1,615 sq ft)
- Building material: brick
- Underfloor heating only on the ground floor and first floor
- Planned for a future family of four (2 adults and 2 children)
I appreciate any help, as this topic is really broad, there are too many models on the market, and too many differing opinions from construction companies, who of course mostly sell what gives them the highest commissions...

Building a house is definitely not like buying a new TV or refrigerator.
Although even with those, people sometimes spend days or weeks researching. Definitely... We are also making a great effort and thoroughly read up on all topics, which is why trust is currently lacking.
It’s just simply difficult to keep up with today’s technical standards. In the past, people just installed an oil heating system and that was it.
Today, you have to consider energy standards, ventilation systems, heat pumps in various options, and so on. It’s definitely interesting and enjoyable, but I feel poorly advised with so many points of contact. Sometimes even construction companies are much less informed than I am as a layperson. That’s just frustrating.
That’s why I’m hoping for some good guidance here.

Which 200 do they want to install? That only refers to the series.

Take a look at the COP values of the Viessmann models A-7 to A 7 and compare them with the Wolf CHA 07.
Which 200 model do they want to install? That’s just the series. We are unfortunately still far from deciding on the model.
I thought it might be possible to make some general statements here about whether the Wolf CHA 07 is fundamentally better than the Viessmann 200-S.
