A Little More On Air Source Heat Pumps
Here’s how Air Source Heat Pumps work
Air Source Heat Pumps circulate air inside the house after extracting it from the outside. The temperature of the harvested air is first increased to suit the inside of the house. This is possible as a result of the fluid that comes with the heat pump. With this heat, you can heat hot water and make your house warm.
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 difficult decision choosing between Ground Source and Air Source Heat Pump. It is more expensive to install Ground Source Heat Pumps. 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 consume more energy than Ground Source Heat Pumps. This is because the ground temperature is greater than that of the air. Therefore, air source heat pumps cost more to operate. But air source heat pumps cost less to install. 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. 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 both energy efficient, however, they have different installation requirements.

Heat Pumps and District Heating and Communal Heating in Petworth
When you talk about district heating, you are talking about tele-heating or heat networks. In Petworth, you can use district heating to heat houses from a single location.
District heating not only heats multiple buildings from one source, it also saves space. When a smaller number of homes is heating from a source, it is known as communal heating. Communal heating is suitable for a small number of buildings that share the same heat source.
Heat pumps make it possible to carry out communal or district heating in a cost-effective manner. In fact, many buildings can come together to fund the installation cost.
Fast and easy installation
When we install heat pumps, we are fast and reliable. When it comes to ground source heat pump, the land has to be dug. In this case, more time may be needed.
