Ground Source Heat Pump Systems

A ground source heat pump uses a series of underground pipes called ground loops which extract heat from the ground. This heat can then be used to warm a home’s radiator network or underfloor heating system and provide hot water. The amount of ground loop required depends on the size of your property and the heat load it requires. Our expert team will complete the calculations for your heat pump to ensure the system is optimally effective for your home.

There are many benefits to having a ground source heat pump as they have 700% efficiency, low noise levels and with current government grants you can get an up front payment of £6000 off the cost of your heat pump.
