PURPOSE: A hot water circulation system linked to a heat pump is provided to effectively exchange heat as the inorganic salts contained in the water do not stick to a fluid path. CONSTITUTION: A hot water circulation system linked to a heat pump comprises an air conditioner(100), a hot water supply unit(200), and a heat exchange unit(300). The air conditioner comprises an indoor unit(110) and an outdoor unit(120). A first refrigerant circulates in the indoor and out door units to refresh a room. The heat exchange unit comprises first and second heat exchangers(310,320), a pump(330), and a controller(360). The pump pumps a second refrigerant circulating between the first and second heat exchangers. The controller controls the pump in order to maintain the temperature of the second refrigerant.
