Ground Source Heat Pumps take their energy from water and underground sources. This means that ground source pumps work better and save more. With air source heat pumps, you can expect more energy consumption. This is because the ground temperature is greater than that of the air. This means that to increase the temperature in your home, ASHP will use up more energy. However, air source heat pumps involve a smaller upfront cost. However, they tend to lose efficiency during the cold months. But they are very easy to install, just like air conditioners. But Ground Source Heat Pumps need land excavation. Therefore, confirm that the subsoil if your land is suitable for the project. Both types of heat pumps are reliable, but installation process differ.
