Ground Source Heat
Pumps.
The ground source heat pumps extracts heat stored in the ground.
This is sometimes referred to as “geothermal”, however, the heat is mostly
from the surface (solar gain), and very little is from the earth’s core.
At depths of 1m and more, the ground temperature does not deviate very
much from the average summer/winter surface temperatures (around 9 -12C
in the UK depending on location). At this depth, there is an enormous
store of heat that can be usefully tapped for heating in the winter.
A ground source heat pump circulates a mixture of water and antifreeze
around a loop of pipe - called a ground loop - which is buried in the
garden. When the liquid travels around the loop it absorbs heat from the
ground - used to heat radiators, underfloor heating systems and even hot
water.
Solar Thermal Water Heating Systems.
Solar Water Heating is the method of transferring the heat of the
sun into Hot Water. We install a solar panel on your roof. What
best suits your needs depends on a range of factors, including the area
of south facing roof, the existing water heating system (e.g. some combi
boilers aren't suitable) and your budget.
Solar water heating systems uses almost unlimited energy from the
sun and can be used alongside your conventional water heater. The technology
is well developed with a large choice of equipment to suit many applications.
Biomass Boilers.
Biomass boilers are now being installed in many new homes. They are the
most effective way for local councils and architects to meet their renewable
energy targets.
A new generation biomass boiler is easy to install and easy to operate.
It is an obvious choice when replacing a gas or oil boiler.
Biomass boilers can be connected to virtually any existing heating system.
Instead of burning the rapidly diminishing supply of fossil fuels Biomass
boilers burn wood chip, wood pellet or cereals or a combination of fuels.
This produces heat for your central heating system and hot water and helps
to counter the impacts of climate change.
