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 harvest heat from hot locations and transfers it to cold location, and vice versa. Heat pumps can be powered via various sources of heat.

Advantages Of Ground Source Heat Pumps
Heating your property using a heat pump will cost less than using electricity systems. The cost of running a ground source heat pump is also lower than running gas or oil boilers. Depending on the type of ground source heat pump you install, you can expect savings of between 500 to pounds every year.
With heat pumps, carbon emissions will be a thing of the past. In fact, you can power your heat pump with renewable energy entirely. This is something you cannot get with LPG, coal, or oil systems. Your old system emits harmful chemicals into the environment.
Heat pumps can work every day of the week as they don’t require fuel to work. When you install a heat pump, you no longer require a furnace. You can install most heat pumps without planning permission. Heat pumps are the main heat sources of the future. Common heating systems will no longer be in vogue. Find out how you can get started with heat pump installation in Tower-Hamlets by calling 01273 257407 today.

A Little More On Air Source Heat Pumps
Here’s how Air Source Heat Pumps work
ASHP harvests hot air from outside the house and funnels it inside via the indoor units. The unit will increase the temperature of the heat before releasing it inside. It achieves this by compressing the fluid that comes with heat pump units. You can use this system to both keep the inside of your home warm and heat up water.
How Much Could an Air Source Heat Pump Save Me?
The savings from Air Source Heat Pumps is close to that of Ground Source Heat Pumps. Plus, you are looking at about £400 in savings especially when compared to electric resistance heaters.
Comparing Air Source Heat Pumps and Ground Source Heat Pumps
Choosing a heat pump type can be difficult for most people. You will spend more installing a ground source heat pump. However, you will enjoy better energy efficiency.
Ground source heat pumps get their energy from underground and water sources. This makes ground source heat pumps the more efficient system. Air source heat pumps tend to use up more energy than ground source pumps. 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. But air source heat pumps cost less to install. Air source heat pumps, however, don’t perform as well in the cold. Air Source Heat Pumps are as easy to install, just like an air conditioner unit. But you will need to excavate the land before you can install a Ground Source Heat Pump. So, you need a suitable subsoil and enough space for the process. Air source heat pumps and Ground Source Heat Pumps are both energy-efficient, but the installation process is different. Get in touch with us on 01273 257407 to know how you can get a heat pump for your Tower-Hamlets property.
