Types of Heat Pumps: Air Source vs. Ground Source
Both air source and ground source heat pumps offer sustainable, energy-efficient solutions for heating and hot water. The choice between them depends on your property and preferences, with each system bringing distinct advantages.
Air Source Heat Pumps
Air source heat pumps use external air to provide your home with heating and hot water. A fan blows the outside air across the system’s evaporator, which absorbs energy from the air. This energy is then compressed and transferred into your building, providing a highly efficient heating solution. ASHPs are an ideal option for homes with limited space for ground loops and can be installed quickly. They offer year-round comfort, heating your home in winter and cooling it in summer.

Ground Source Heat Pumps
Ground source heat pumps extract thermal energy from the earth using underground loops, providing consistent and reliable heating and hot water. This system is highly efficient, with the ground maintaining a stable temperature year-round, offering excellent performance even during the coldest months. GSHPs are perfect for properties with more space, and while the installation is more involved, they deliver long-term savings through their low operational costs.

What Are Heat Pumps?
Heat pumps work by transferring heat from one place to another. They can extract heat from the air or ground outside and bring it into your home. This renewable heating method is highly efficient, often providing more heat than the electricity used to power them. With their ability to also provide cooling during the warmer months, heat pumps offer an all-in-one heating and cooling solution.
By using renewable energy, heat pumps can reduce your carbon footprint and lower your energy bills. They are a smart choice for homeowners looking to switch to more sustainable heating options.

How much do heat pumps cost to install?
The installation cost for heat pumps can vary depending on the type (air source or ground source) and the size of the system. Generally, air source heat pumps are more affordable to install, while ground source systems involve higher upfront costs but offer long-term savings.
Are heat pumps suitable for every home?
Heat pumps are suitable for most homes, but they are particularly effective in properties with good insulation. It’s important to consider the size of your property and your heating needs when choosing the right type of heat pump.
