Advantages Of Ground Source Heat Pumps
It is cheaper to run a heat pump for heating than to use electricity for heating. Running a gas or oil boiler cost more to run than using a ground source heat pump. Your savings depends on the type of Ground Source Heat Pump you choose but can be anything up to a £750 plus saving.
Heat pumps don’t generate carbon emissions. In fact, you can power your heat pump with renewable energy entirely. This is something you cannot get with LPG, coal, or oil systems. Traditional systems emit carbon, and this slowly damages the environment.
You will not experience fuel shortage using heat pumps. A furnace is no longer needed and this space can be converted into a usable space. You will likely not require planning permission to install heat pump. Heat pumps are the heating technology of the future. Traditional sources of heat will be a thing of the past. Find out how you can get started with heat pump installation in Bexhill by calling 01273 257407 today.
The amount of energy savings will depend on your use and your existing system. However, compared to gas boilers, you are likely looking at around 26% of savings. This equates to around £500 to £1400 per year in energy savings.

A Little More On Air Source Heat Pumps
Here’s how Air Source Heat Pumps work
Air source heat pumps take air from the outside and distributes it inside the house. The system regulates the temperature of the heat. This is achieved by compressing the fluids inside the heat pump system. With this heat, you can heat hot water and make your house warm.
How Much Could an Air Source Heat Pump Save Me?
Savings from air source heat pumps are similar to that of ground source heat pumps. When you compare heat pumps to electric resistance heaters, you are looking at savings of about £400 each year.
Comparing Air Source Heat Pumps and Ground Source Heat Pumps
It can be a difficult decision choosing between Ground Source and Air Source Heat Pump. Ground source heat pumps are more expensive to install. But you stand to gain a higher level of energy efficiency.
Ground Source Heat Pumps take their energy from water and underground sources. This makes ground source heat pumps the more efficient system. Air source heat pumps are known for higher energy consumption. This is because the ground temperature is greater than that of the air. This means that you may likely spend more to run an air source heat pump compared to ground source heat pumps. That said, ASHP are less costly to install and are still good investments. Air Source Heat Pumps become less efficient during colder months. But they are very easy to install, just like air conditioners. You will have to excavate the earth before you can install a ground source heat pump. So, make sure your land is suitable for the project. Air source heat pumps and ground source heat pumps are both energy efficient, however, they have different installation requirements.
