Why might I want a heat pump?
Simply put, a heat pump is an electrical device which transfers heat energy from one location to another, an example could be transferring heat energy from outdoors into your home. In the electrical field, heat pumps can be used for both heating and cooling purposes. An air source heat pump (ASHPs) tends to do exactly that and move heat from air outside your home to inside your home. This system allows you to heat your home as well as heating water too.
Typically, heat pumps are installed outside your home, the units can vary in size but are generally no bigger than 2 metres x 2 metres.
How do heat pumps work?
Sparta Mech pride ourselves on the open communication channels we have with our clients, we pride ourselves on explaining all stages of installation as well as explaining how many of the systems work. Heat pumps use a technology called refrigerant cycle.
A refrigerant is essentially a liquid which can absorb heat from a source such as colder air outside your home. As the liquid uses the heat energy, it turns into a gas. The gas then undergoes compression and then condenses, releases heat energy into a space like the inside of your home.
Benefits of a heat pump in my home?
- Heat pumps are more efficient than gas boilers, this suggests that they can reduce the carbon emissions of your home which in turn means less greenhouse gasses emitted into the atmosphere.
- If you pair your heat pump usage with lower energy tariffs, you could drive down your energy bills.
- You can minimise the risk of potential gas leaks as you won’t be needing any imported gas in your home.
