Your new Norfolk home needs heating and cooling and you are wondering whether an air source heat pump is a good solution. In the past people relied on gas, oil and electricity to heat and cool homes and offices but as the cost of living continued to rise cheaper solutions were created, and the air source heat pump is one of them. It works by harvesting warmer air from the around a building and pumping it in and in summer it does the reverse, cooling the air. These pumps come with several advantages:
• They reduce the cost of heating and cooling considerable. True, in some cases, especially when you are heating or cooling large spaces you may need additional mechanisms, but you will still have much smaller utility bills.
• The UK government will reward you for using this kind of cooling and heating system because it is better for the environment. You will be able to recover a substantial amount of the money that you spend on purchase and installation.
• You will be able to enjoy heating even in very low temperatures. These pumps can work in temperatures that are as low as -20C.
• If you are not keen to connect your air source heat pump to your electricity grid you can have it powered by wind or solar. It is the perfect system for those who want to live off the grid.
• These pumps can heat water and keep it hot for a long time, unlike other forms of heating where the water cools if not used right away.
