What is a Heat Pump?

More and more homes in the UK are being heated by ground source heat pumps. This little understood concept has been around for many years, but has only recently become of interest due to the current concerns over global warming and environmental issues

This technology is not appropriate for every situation, and is mostly viable in remote areas where mains gas is not available. It is particularly suited to well insulated houses with underfloor heating.
