Is My Property Suitable For A Ground Source Heat Pump?

We work to determine whether your property is suitable for these low carbon solutions and renewable heating, as ground source heat pumps cannot be installed on all kinds of land.

The ground array is the solar thermal piping system that is pipes buried in the ground, which works to absorb the heat from the sun, which can then be used in renewable heating throughout your home. This system of pipes can be a horizontal ground loop which will need to be installed 1.2 metres below ground level.

We can also install ground source heat pumps piping in vertical borehole drilling, where two or three sets of pipes are installed, and for this system, they need to be 70 metres deep which means they will be installed by our drilling rigs.

These are known as closed-loop systems, where deep holes are drilled vertically into the ground to accommodate the pipes. Closed-loop systems are better suited to plots with limited space available, such as social housing, as the pipes are drilled deep into the ground and can be installed where open-loop systems or horizontal grids do not apply.

As there are two forms of GSHP systems that can be installed for ground source heat pumps, and we can help you find the best option. This is why hiring MCS-certified engineers and installers is vital to get this heating system in your home, and this is what we work to do.

We offer a number of great Ground Source Heat Pump Installers and are more than happy in assisting you on anything from price, to dimensions, to specification.

Should I Replace A Gas Boiler With A Ground Source Heat Pump?

One of the main motivators for people to make the change to a solar PV heating system is the fact it helps them save money on their energy bills. This is since it is a renewable energy source that can help maintain the temperatures within your home, which makes them more effective than a traditional heating system like a boiler.

In the long run, it will be cheaper to have these renewable heat pumps installed due to their low running costs. Our local installers work to provide your property with this environmentally friendly heat system, even though the cost of installing a heat pump system can vary based on your property and will differ based on your requirements.

The cost to install a ground source heat pump will be complicated by the difficulty and the disruption involved in digging up a vast area outside and running new pipework from the ground in a loop manifold to the heat pump unit at the base station. We can install the solar PV pipework in open-loop systems or closed-loop systems based on the needs of the property.

Following the installation of open-loop systems, there can still be complications in your underfloor heating, which is why the work needs to be completed by MCS-registered installers like those at our company. Even if you own a water radiator system and the healing process is running smoothly, you need to modify the size of the radiators as it allows for low run rates for a hot-water source which can reduce carbon footprint while still giving you access to the heating you need. 

The temperatures given out by ground pressure pumps are lower overall than the high system temperature associated with oil boilers, which is why this system is more environmentally friendly and cheaper to run.

Load-Shifting Ground Source Heat Pumps

Ground source heat pumps can be a prime target for applying load-shifting strategies, which is another way they can reduce heating bills. These heat pumps can operate in non-peak hours easily, and the utility will reduce the electricity it needs.

Ground source heat pumps are generally quieter than fossil fuel boilers which can make them suitable for more properties, including social housing with multiple tenants. The ground-source heat pump is up to 22 decibels, whereas a boiler would contain a density of 40 – 60 decibels. While most modern units are 40, it is clear that ground and air source heat pumps are the better options when it comes to their output.

With ground source heat pump systems, a heating schedule can be created to make use of predicted electricity prices and allow you to see the savings that are being made using this new system. Advances in technical capabilities that include heat storage batteries also mean you can save any energy generated during these off-peak times for use during peak hours of the day, likewise the use of air source heat pumps for the same timing. We can provide ground source heat pumps, as well as air source heat pumps and other forms of renewable energy, which can help reduce your energy bills.

How Does A Ground Source Heat Pump Work?

Our pumps work to produce heat from land, air or water based on the source heat installation you opt for. The heat escaping them is continually replenished naturally using what is available from the land, which is how these systems can help you save money on your energy bills.

The collector loop used in ground source and air source systems can be placed vertically in a trench about a meter above the ground, where vertical boreholes can be drilled between 90 to 160 m in depth to extract much more heat in the gas grid.

The space you need for a horizontal loop and the depth you need for drilling the borehole can vary on many different factors, which is why we offer several types of heat exchangers to ensure we have a solar PV system for everyone.

Your heat pump installer will design the collector array based on local conditions and the heat needs of your home. For more information, please watch our explanation videos.

Why Install A Ground Source Heat Pump?

Air source and ground source heating pumps generate approximately four times the electrical energy needed to power compressor and circulation pumps from inside the system. This aspect of a heat pump is used to produce one of the most renewable power supplies possible.

We can supply you with up to four free, no-obligation price quotes in the contact form below.

Types Of Ground Source Heat Pumps

Installing the heat pump requires digging down into the garden, which is why we need to first consider how much space is available before we can install this system.

Our installers can drill straight down and put the systems vertically, which is anywhere between 15 and 100 meters in the ground. The other solution is a flat loop system installed horizontally on the soil surface of your garden, which is better suited to smaller lands.

Our company utilizes high-grade components for our newest systems and installations. We design and supply the ground source Heat Pumps designed by NIBE for energy-efficient and renewable applications for water heaters, underfloor heating, and space heating.

This includes ground source, water source heat pumps, solar PV, and other renewable energies.

Initial Considerations When Installing A Ground Source Heat Pump

GSHPs are the most efficient, and if you have a room, it is a great option for your home. Space is the key consideration to make before opting to have a ground or air source heat pump system installed.

GSHP works best with underfloor heating rather than standard radiators, which is something else that our customers need to consider before they opt for this system as this can also have additional costs. Before ground source heat pump installation, the house needs to be properly insulated as a GSHP provides constant but low temperatures, which is why underfloor heating is very efficient through this heat exchanger.

If you want hot water as well, you may need a separate immersion heater to tackle this issue. It is more economical when you replace an inefficient system such as LPG heating or electric heating with this new heating and cooling system, which is why many people are looking to make the switch.
