Eco heat pumps are another important feature of a low energy building, and the units we have selected are the best available.
Eco Heat Pumps are supplied by Swedish company Danfoss through local company Source Energy, and provides heat from the ground, via an 80-100 meter deep borehole under each property.
In the most basic terms the principle of the Eco Heat Pump is this:
That a small amount of heat from a large area can be converted into a much greater amount of heat in a smaller area. In this case that energy translates into heating for the underfloor and hotwater systems of your house.
There are several other advantages of the heat pump system:
- a 25 year life expectancy is 4-5 tiomes greater than the recommended life of the moder boiler.
- Savings of £400 or more per year in boiler servicing charges, as there is no annual maintenance requirement.
- Heating fuel savings - benefits growing as prices rise.
- The heatpump creates between 1.4kw - 6kw energy.
- Silent operation.
- The system is computerised and completely automatic for an easy life.
- Heat is topped up automatically from mains power when required.
