Eartheat Heat Pumps - The Benefits of using heat pump technology

Heat Pump technology involves equipment which transfers heat energy from one environment to another. Heat pumps use the refrigeration process and transfers low temperature energy from the external source to a refrigeration loop, compresses the gases generating heat and transfers this heat to the hot water and heating distribution system. No matter how large or small the building, we have heat pumps or a heat pump system to meet your needs. Our systems range from a single 4kW unit to multiple units with a single controller producing around 300kW. Domestic hot water storage is also provided using 180 to 1000 litre pressurised vessels designed specifically for our Heat Pumps.


Key Benefits of Heat Pumps

  • No need for an oil or gas boiler!
  • Provides all of your heating and hot water needs.
  • Five year parts and labour warranty.
  • Can be monitored over the internet for user confidence and security.
  • Mains pressure hot water cylinders from 150 litres to 1000 litres.
  • Save up to 85% in energy costs against conventional systems.
  • 100% less CO2 emissions than fossil fuelled systems if you buy 'green' electricity or produce it yourself.
  • For every 1 unit of electricity used an average of 4 units of heat are produced meaning 75% of your energy comes from your own power plant under your garden, the other 25% comes from the electricity used to drive the heat pump.
  • 20+ year's system lifetime and no annual servicing.
  • Quality Assured units from Swedish manufacturers with over 30 years of design and operational
    experience.
  • Inflation and tax proof investment, the government cannot tax your garden!
  • No risk of explosion or carbon monoxide poisoning.
  • No need for gas connections or fuel tanks.
  • Use under floor heating, radiators fan coils or a combination.
  • Will heat swimming pools.
  • Energy efficiency average 400% across the year compared to boilers that are typically 70 - 95%. They also maintain their efficiency over time whereas boiler efficiencies reduce dramatically over time.
  • Up to 600% efficiency possible with open loop systems.
  • Cost effective passive and active cooling available.
  • Always available whatever the weather, day or night.
