Heat Pumps (Air And Ground)
Talk to Future Solutions today if you are interested in investing in air or ground source heat pumps. There are many good reasons for installing ground and air source heat pumps. Let’s take a look at the key benefits of ground and air source heat pumps right now.
Air Source Heat Pumps
Air source heat pumps are also referred to as ASHPs. They work by taking free heat from external environments to increase the temperature inside your home or business premises. Only a modest amount of electricity is needed to operate ASHPs, which means you can reduce your usage of fossil fuels once you have one installed. In fact, for every unit of cost, you can receive three units of heat. ASHPs are also able to cool your space in the summer. You may even be able to reduce the cost of your purchase thanks to schemes like the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS), the Renewable Heat Incentive and the Enhanced Capital Allowance. In some cases, ASHPs are able to last for two decades before they need to be replaced. Maintenance requirements are modest, with servicing taking place annually.
Ground Source Heat Pumps
Ground Source Heat Pumps are suitable for commercial and residential properties. They work by using pipes buried in the ground to extract heat. They can be used throughout the year and can help you make considerable reductions in your energy use and CO2 emissions. A ground source heat pump can help you cut heating bills by around 70% and can be used alongside your existing heating system. You can even make your ground source heat pump carbon neutral by using a renewable source of electricity. Once your installation is in place, you can substantially reduce your reliance on fuels like LPG, oil and coal. Ground source heat pumps are also a low maintenance option, with most work involving removing debris from the pump. They are also noted for their low noise emissions.
