Heat Pumps
Ground Source Heat Pumps
This is where you have a pipe buried in the garden. Within the pipe circulates a glycol/water mix which gently absorbs the heat stored in the ground. This low level heat is concentrated and transferred by the heat pump to the wet central heating system within the house.
Air Source Heat Pumps
Air Source Heat Pumps do not have a ground loop, but instead absorb the heat from the air. Their advantage is no digging required, however they are less efficient and their siting needs to be sensitive due to a small amount of noise from the external fan.
Air to Air Heat Pumps
Air to Air Heat Pumps as the name suggests absorb heat from the air outside and moves it inside the house distributing it via the air. They are highly efficient and are ideal for small open plan dwellings. The air to air is not a solution for hot water but does give air conditioning during the hot periods.
