Designed for Sustainability and Cost Efficiency!
Heat pumps operate by transferring heat from the environment, offering greater heat output than the energy they consume.
This results in significant savings.
Utilizing free and abundant heat from the air, surface water, underground aquifers.
Heat pump technology offers several advantages:
New Construction Solutions:
Tailored solutions integrated seamlessly into each home's design, catering to specific climate conditions. Our services address mechanical ventilation, dehumidification, structural insulation, and renewable energy sources based on individual requirements.
Retrofitting Services:
Upgrade existing systems with advanced solutions that revamp distribution and control systems.
This includes renovating distribution networks, implementing intelligent management systems, and adding thermal insulation layers for improved efficiency.
Advantages Include:
Fully customizable systems catering to heating, cooling, domestic hot water production, ventilation, air renewal, and heat recovery.
Unlocking Unprecedented Efficiency with Air Source Heat Pumps
Compared to LPG, gas, or oil boilers, Air Source Heat Pumps redefine efficiency. While traditional boilers typically run at 92-94%, a heat pump achieves over 300% efficiency. It produces an impressive 3Kw – 4Kw of heat for every 1 Kw energy consumed.
Understanding Seasonal Performance Factor (SPF) and More
Determining the heat pump's running costs is crucial. Engineers assess the Seasonal Coefficient of Performance (SCoP) before installation. This calculation, based on standard climate data, considers factors like your location's average temperatures, home construction, and radiator size. Your installer should share this data pre-installation for a clear understanding of running costs.
Post-installation Efficiency Brilliance
Once installed, the heat pump showcases remarkable efficiency. Compared to a new gas boiler at 92-94% efficiency, the minimum efficiency of an Air Source Heat Pump is around 300%. For every unit of electricity used, it generates three units of heat energy, making it a superior environmental and cost-effective choice. Notably, with lower flow temperatures (e.g., with underfloor heating), efficiency can soar to 450% – 500%.
