A 1960's tower block of 58 flats drew the attention of Ground Heat when Northwards commissioned us to install a ground source heat pump system for a more energy efficient and cost effective solution to an ageing gas plant on the roof of. As fuel poverty is a growing concern amongst the elderly, we at Ground Heat decided to pioneer the idea of installing ground source heat pumps and auroTHERM solar thermal into sheltered accommodation. The 11 room residential. As Ground Heat is the leading provider of bespoke commercial ground source heat pump design and installation solutions, Shepway Court's 40 units fitted in September 2013 were a cause of celebration for its residents.
Ground source heat pumps are attracting great interest at present since they promise to deliver year round energy efficiency. The ground source heat pumps (GSHP) extract 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).
We have been designing and installing heat pumps for over 17 years. We assert our professionalism as heating engineers in the renewables field by designing and installing specialised systems for our clients domestically and in the commercial sector. As one of the most experienced companies in the UK we were named as Heat Pump Installer of the Year at the National ACR and Heat Pump Awards 2016 and Commercial Installer of the Year at the Renewables Awards 2015. From initial conception through to installation, we manage every phase of the process with expert advice and a hands on approach to guide you through the process.
We factor a number of follow up tweaking sessions into all our jobs. This is probably one of the most important factors in ensuring that you get the most out of your new installation. All customers are invited to visit our showroom where we have various models of heat pumps specifically designed for training. This is key to ensuring the customer has a good understanding of the basic functions that the heat pump can offer.
We are recognised within the industry as being a market leader in the development of swimming pool heating by the use of heat pumps. They work by extracting heat from the ground depending on what sort of heat pump you choose and transferring it into the pool water. Pool heat pumps are so efficient at transferring heat that they operate at a lower cost than natural gases.
We provide a full range of bespoke underfloor heating systems that deliver the correct amount of heat precisely where and when it is needed in an efficient and economical way. We specialise in the integration of underfloor heating with our heat pump installations. Having underfloor heating means that you can enjoy constant warmth in your rooms. With an underfloor heating system, the floor itself becomes the heat emitter and the heating of the room is from the floor up. This is unlike conventional radiator systems where the emitters are mounted on the wall and the room is, effectively, heated from the ceiling downwards.
