Heat pump with a refrigerant, in particular with a flammable and / or toxic refrigerant

Abstract

A heat pump (10) with a refrigerant (14), in particular with a flammable and / or toxic refrigerant, comprising a largely gas-tight housing section (26). A heat pump section (28) of the heat pump (10) is arranged within the gas-tight housing section (26). The gas-tight housing section (26) has a forced vent (30) with a vent section (32) leading from the gas-tight housing section (26). It is proposed that the vent section (32) has a gas-extracting channel (36) leading from the gas-tight housing section (26), which is enclosed by a fresh air supply line (38), and that the forced vent (30) includes a gas conveying device (34).
