Air to water heat pumps – high temperature

For heating, hot water and cooling

Powered by 65% air and 35% electricity

Optional solar support

Connects to existing piping system

Hot water heated to 80° is available for domestic hot water and high temperature radiators

Both heating and cooling can operate using heat pump

 

Hybrid heat pumps

For heating, hot water and cooling

Powered by an optional combination of air, electricity and gas depending on seasonal conditions and energy prices

Ideal for renovations or replacing old gas boilers

Domestic hot water is efficiently supplied even when temperature is low with the combination of a heat pump type hot water heater and a gas boiler

 

Ground source heat pumps

Ground source heat pumps are ideal for new properties or large-scale renovations using horizontal loops where land is available, or vertical probes drilled perpendicularly into the ground. By extracting energy from below the Earth’s surface, ground source heat pumps are extremely reliable, even in the coldest climates. Ground temperatures remain fairly stable throughout the year, making it an ideal renewable energy source.
