Ground Source- How it works...

The basic principles of a ground source heat pump can be explained quickly and simply:


Ground source heat pumps use heat absorbed by the ground to provide buildings with an environmentally sound and efficient heat supply. This has been an established solution for decades and for good reason. The ground can be considered an ideal heat source. Due to the fact that this energy source maintains a constant temperature throughout the year, ground source heat pumps achieve good results, continuously and reliably.


Heat pumps require electricity to operate but for every unit of electricity they use, they produce upto 5 units of heat. This figure is referred to as a COP rate.


If designed correctly these systems can operate efficiently even when the outside temperature drops down to -10degC.
