GROUND SOURCE HEAT PUMP

Ground Source Heat Pumps extract natural heat from the ground to provide heating and hot water for your home. A fluid mixture of water and antifreeze is circulated through a network of underground pipes, known as a ground loop, which absorbs heat from the earth. This low-grade heat is then transferred into the heat pump via a heat exchanger and upgraded for use inside the property.

​

Because the temperature below ground remains relatively stable throughout the year, GSHPs can continue to operate efficiently even during the coldest winter months. The length of the ground loop required will depend on the size of your home and the available outdoor space. Longer loops allow more heat to be collected over a greater surface area.
