AIR AND GROUND SOURCE HEAT PUMPS.

We service, maintain and install domestic air and ground source heat pumps. Our lead engineer Ben is experienced in both air and ground source heat pumps and can design hybrid systems linking other fuels such as oil and solid fuel.

Heat pumps use a small amount of electricity but transfer instead of creating heat, providing an efficient source of heat.

There are two types of heat pumps, air and ground. A heat pump uses a small amount of electricity but transfers heat energy instead of treating it like a traditional boiler, making it an efficient and green source of heat. Amazingly these pumps can extract heat from outside air as long as it’s above -18c.

Air source heat pumps extract heat from ambient external air through an appliance fitted to the outside of a house. The heat from the air is absorbed into a refrigerant fluid and passed through a heat exchanger to heat water. This water is in turn used to heat the domestic hot water and central systems.
