1. A heat exchanger module comprising: a glycol coolant circuit adapted to function as a heat pump and to provide heated air to an interior passenger compartment of a motor vehicle with a glycol/water mixture as a heat carrier;a refrigerant circuit adapted to provide cooled air to the interior passenger compartment of the motor vehicle, said refrigerant circuit having a high-pressure selector valve and a low-pressure selector valve integrated therein;a glycol/refrigerant heat exchanger positioned between and interconnecting said coolant circuit and said refrigerant circuit, said glycol/refrigerant heat exchanger having integrated connection lines for heat transfer from said coolant circuit to said refrigerant circuit; anda connection line from said glycol/refrigerant heat exchanger and said low-pressure selector valve, said connection line being installed within an accumulator/collector and internal heat exchanger.2. The heat exchanger module of claim 1 further including a plurality of refrigerant ports adapted to connect to a suction side of a compressor, to a pressure side of the compressor, to a flash element, and to an internal heat exchanger.3. The heat exchanger module of claim 1 further including a plurality of coolant ports for connecting to a radiator and to said glycol/refrigerant heat exchanger.4. The heat exchanger module of claim 1 wherein said glycol circuit and said glycol/refrigerant heat exchanger are switched parallel to a heating heat exchanger, said heat exchanger module further including a multi-way directional valve adapted to control the proportions of the flow of coolant through said glycol/refrigerant heat exchanger and said heating heat exchanger based upon the heat demand within the passenger compartment and the temperature of the coolant.5. The heat exchanger module of claim 1 further including at least one two-way water valve positioned within said glycol circuit and adapted to allow the coolant flow to bypass said glycol/refrigerant heat exchanger and said heating heat exchanger.
