Air Source pumps
Firstly, Air source heat pumps work on a similar principle to ground source heat pumps, however they are better suited to smaller properties.
The big advantage is that they require only an outdoor unit rather than having to dig up the garden, making the installation quicker and cheaper.
They have the same performance and efficiency of a ground source heat pump, typically providing £4 of free energy for every £1 of electrical energy you put into it. This technology has been proven and even works in temperatures as low as -10°C.

How do solar water heating systems work?
Solar water heating systems use solar panels, called collectors, fitted to your roof. These collect heat from the sun and use it to warm water which is stored in a hot water cylinder.
There are two types of solar water heating panels, they are evacuated tubes (like in the picture above) and flat plate collectors. Flat plates collectors can be fixed on the roof tiles or integrated into the roof.
A boiler or immersion heater can be used as a back up to heat the water further to reach the temperature set by the cylinders thermostat when the solar water heating system does not reach that temperature. (The cylinder thermostat should be set at 60 degrees centigrade.)
Larger solar panels can also provide energy to heat your home as well – though usually only in the summer months when home heating is unnecessary.

This installation comprised of 2x Worcester Bosch flat panel collectors and a new albion twin coiled hot water cylinder. The location is in a village called Wing in Rutland, after just a few days the customers are already very impressed with the system and workmanship. We also replaced their old oil boiler a few months ago for a new Worcester Bosch Condensing model.
For a qoute for a similar system or any general plumbing please contact us.
