Ground Source Heat Pumps for Your Home
What to keep in mind when considering a ground source heat pump.
The type of heat distribution system.
GSHPs
can be combined with radiators but under-floor heating is better as it works at a lower temperature.
Is
there space to get the rig in to install the ground loop?
Is the
ground suitable for a borehole?
What
fuel is being replaced? If it's electricity, oil, LPG or any other conventional
fossil fuel the payback will be more favourable. Heat pumps are a good
option where gas is unavailable.
Want
to be 100% renewable? Buy green electricity, or install solar PV or some
other form of renewable electricity generating system to power the compressor
and pump.
Need a back-up heating system?
Is there also a cooling requirement?
Is the
system for a new building development? Combining the installation with
other building works can reduce costs.
Can
you incorporate insulation measures? Wall, floor and loft insulation
will lower your heat demand.
