Heat Pumps: Why Should I Buy One?
Imagine never having to worry about turning your heating controls down to save money.
Imagine your home being constantly warm and comfortable.
Imagine a heating system that uses renewable energy, requires no regular maintenance and is completely safe with no local greenhouse emissions.
Welcome to your heat pump from Ice Energy.
Proven Technology
Although relatively new to the UK, heat pumps are a proven technology pioneered in Sweden where 97% of all new houses are built with heat pump heating systems.
Low Running Costs
Moving Heat from Your Garden into Your Home.
Heat pumps work by collecting heat from the ground in your garden and moving it into your home – essentially a refrigerator working in reverse. The technology works so well that even when freezing outside – your home is still warm and snug.
Best of all, because you are moving heat, rather than creating it by burning oil or gas, the system is much more efficient with average savings of up to 70% on your annual running costs.
Lower Environmental Impact
When coupled with a green electricity supply your heating, hot water and electricity demands create zero Carbon Dioxide emissions, making a real contribution to the reduction of green house gases.
25 Year Life Span with No Regular Maintenance
Based on fridge technology heat pumps are extremely reliable with no regular maintenance required. Our pumps have a planned life span of 25 years with no loss of efficiency (oil boilers can lose up to 2% efficiency for each year of operation and have a useable life-span of about 12 years).
Easy Installation
Any competent plumber can install the heat pump and in case you have any queries you have lifetime access to our technical support team. The groundwork required is simple and again we are on hand every step of the way to help.
Safer than Gas, Oil and LPG boilers
Almost 150 people a year are killed by home explosions and Carbon Monoxide poisoning from gas central heating boilers, while the environmental consequences of oil pollution from oil tanks leaves homeowners liable to a £20,000 fine should their system leak.
Ice Energy heat pumps use food safe glycol in their ground loop, are completely safe and free of any contaminants which may harm the environment.
Great with Under-floor Heating
Because of the lower operating temperatures of heat pump systems they are ideal for working with under-floor heating, and with our sister company, Ice Energy Floor Heating, we can offer you a ready made solution.
