Geothermal Heat Pumps

What is a Geothermal Heat Pump?

A geothermal heat pump or ground source heat pump is a central heating system that uses the earth as a heat source and pumps heat from the ground. It takes advantage of the moderate temperatures in the ground to boost efficiency and reduce the operational costs of heating systems. Geo Thermal

Why Choose Geothermal?

    Cost effective:

  • The earths temperature is used as a heat source so purchasing of fossil fuels is not required.
  • Reliable:

  • The earths temperature is constant below 20m.
  • Environmentally friendly:

  • No Co2 emissions. ind, geothermal and air to water.

Underfloor heating

Benefits of Underfloor Heating:

    Comfort:

  • Underfloor heating radiates from the floor up and provides a balanced heat throughout the room. This is not the case with conventional convective radiator heating systems which just heat the air.
  • Environmentally Friendly:

  • Underfloor heating is more environmentally friendly as it provides the same level of heat but operates using lower temperatures thus minimising the fuel consumed. When used in conjunction with a condensing boiler, optimum efficiency is achieved.
  • Space Efficient:

    UnderFloorHeating
  • Underfloor heating does not take up any space in a room. Conventional radiators use up a lot of wall space and heat can be blocked if furniture is placed in front of them.
  • Controlled:

  •  With an underfloor heating system, it is possible to control the heat in each room individually through independent thermostats. Flexible Underfloor heating has a range of compatible heat sources including oil, gas and solid fuel.
