Advantages Of Ground Source Heat Pumps
Ground source heat pumps are a lot cheaper than heating via normal electricity. Ground Source Heat Pumps also save money compared to gas boilers and oil boilers. Your savings on heating expenses will be significant, however, this depends on the type of ground source heat pump installed.
These pumps don’t emit carbon and are environmentally friendly. These systems can be powered with 100% renewable energy. That’s in direct contrast to biomass, LPG, burning oil and coal. Conventional heating systems damage the environment by emitting dangerous wastes.
Heat pumps can work every day of the week as they don’t require fuel to work. You save the space required for a furnace when you install a heat pump. You will likely not require planning permission to install heat pump. In the future, heat pumps will be the main source of heating in homes. Regular sources of domestic heating may slowly phase out. To know more about installing a heat pump in Woking, call 01273 257407 .

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 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?
You get to enjoy almost as much savings with air source heat pumps, as you would with ground source heat pumps. You can expect to save as much as £400 using heat pumps 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. Ground source heat pumps are more expensive to install. However, you will enjoy better energy efficiency.
Ground Source Heat Pumps take their energy from water and underground sources. So, they are much more efficient and can save more money. Air source heat pumps tend to use up more energy than ground source pumps. This is because the temperature in the ground is greater than the temperature in the air. This means that to increase the temperature in your home, ASHP will use up more energy. That said, ASHP are less costly to install and are still good investments. But they don’t work as well during the winter months. However, air source heat pumps are quite easy to install, almost like putting up an air conditioner. Ground source heat pumps, however, will require that you dig into the ground. So, be sure to confirm that you have enough space and the right type of land for the project. Air source heat pumps and ground source heat pumps are both energy efficient, however, they have different installation requirements.
