Ground Source Heat Pumps

Ground Source Heat Pumps

A ground source heat pumps use pipes that are buried in the garden to collect energy from the ground. This type of heating can then be used to power radiators, underfloor or air systems and even your home’s hot water.
These types of pipes are filled with a combination of water and antifreeze. This mixture is effective as it circulates through the pipe absorbing heat from the ground, meaning it preserves energy.
Every home is different therefore the length of the ground loop can vary, as the amount of heat you need may be more/less. A Longer loop can draw more heat, but requires more space to be buried in. If space is limited there is an option to install a vertical borehole.
