How Do Heat Pumps Work?
Powered by electricity, heat pumps move heated air from where it is harvested to where it is needed. The refrigerant in the heat pump helps move the heat from one place to another. Heat pumps take heat from a warm location and transfers it to a cold location, and vice versa. Heat pumps can be powered via various sources of heat.

Heating your property using a heat pump will cost less than using electricity systems. Running a gas or oil boiler cost more to run than using a ground source heat pump. Depending on the type of ground source heat pump you install, you can expect savings of between 500 to pounds every year.
These pumps don’t emit carbon and are environmentally friendly. In fact, you can power your heat pump with renewable energy entirely. This is totally different from what you get using regular heating systems. Conventional heating systems damage the environment by emitting dangerous wastes.
There is no fuel storage with heat pumps. A heat pump will also save space in your home as you will not need a furnace. Chances are you will not need planning permission for heat pump installation. Heat pumps are the heating technology of the future. Common heating systems will no longer be in vogue.

A Little More On Air Source Heat Pumps
Here’s how Air Source Heat Pumps work
Air Source Heat Pumps take heat from the air outside and circulate it inside a building. The system increases the temperature from the heat extracted outside. It achieves this by compressing the fluid that comes with heat pump units. You can even use the heat from a heat pump to heat water in the house.
How Much Could an Air Source Heat Pump Save Me?
Air source heat pumps and ground source heat pumps offer similar savings. In fact, you will likely save as much as £400 every year, compared to electric resistance heaters.
Comparing Air Source Heat Pumps and Ground Source Heat Pumps
It can be a tough choice choosing between ground source and air source heat pumps. But you will spend a lot more installing a ground source heat pump than the air source model. However, you will enjoy better energy efficiency.
With ground source heat pumps, you can use either underground heat or water sources. So, they are much more efficient and can save more money. Air source heat pumps are known for higher energy consumption. This is because the temperature in the ground is greater than the temperature in the air. Therefore, air source heat pumps will need more energy to generate sufficient heat. But air source heat pumps cost less to install. Air Source Heat Pumps become less efficient during colder months. Air Source Heat Pumps are as easy to install, just like an air conditioner unit. But Ground Source Heat Pumps need land excavation. So, make sure your land is suitable for the project. Air source heat pumps and ground source heat pumps are equally reliable, but they are installed differently. Call 01273 257407 to speak to someone about installing a heat pump in Redbridge.
What Can You Use Heat Pumps with to Heat Your Property?
Heat pumps can work with heating and cooling systems via HVAC

This will give you the perfect temperature in Redbridge throughout the year. And you won’t have to rely on outside sources of energy and you would reduce your bills.
