Optional solar support
Ideal for new homes and green buildings
Hot water heated to 55° is available for floor heating and low temperature radiators
Both heating and cooling can operate using heat pump
Air to water heat pumps – high temperature
For heating, hot water and cooling
Powered by 65{0ac3d56eea693ac2cfa2249648973a1cfbe39fc1280b0561f9d581ca114fac1e} air and 35{0ac3d56eea693ac2cfa2249648973a1cfbe39fc1280b0561f9d581ca114fac1e} 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.
