Ground source heat pumps are the most energy efficient means of heating, ventilating and air conditioning a domestic property. Due to their positive impact upon the environment, as well as their efficiency, ground source heat pumps are increasing in popularity for new build and renovation projects. Ground source heat pumps can be used to provide most, if not all of a home's heating and domestic hot water.
We have extensive experience as ground source heat pump installers and as well as installers of alternative renewable energy technologies, working with local authorities and homeowners on a variety of projects.
A ground source heat pump transfers heat from the ground into a building to provide heating and in some cases hot water. A ground source heat pump works by circulating water through buried pipes, which absorb the heat from underground. The principle is similar to a refrigerator, except that the temperature requirement is the reverse.
When the amount of energy used to run a ground source heat pump is calculated against the amount of heating supplied (and what this would have cost from another source) there are savings to be made on both heating bills and CO2 emissions. Other benefits include lower maintenance costs, as well as scope for heating, cooling, and hot water in some instances. As a general guide, the efficiency of the system should mean that it uses a quarter of what it produces to power the pump. Ground source heat pumps are designed to heat a whole building, and do not require any external fuel, meaning they are very energy efficient. Although ground source heat pumps are relatively expensive to install, they are cost effective where mains gas or oil is not available.
Although ongoing expansion plans are in place, our team of renewable energies and ground source heat pump installers, currently operates within a local area, comprising Cheshire, Manchester, Wirral, Shropshire, and North Wales.
