Clarity Heating, leading heating engineers in Ely, Cambridgeshire are experts in Renewable Energy installations, including Air source and Ground source heating.
With a lot of pressure on us all to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels the idea of turning to renewable energy as a way to heat our homes and commercial buildings is something many are considering. But, like with many things it’s not always possible to learn enough to feel comfortable making a decision on our own.
This is where Clarity Heating can help. We are able to explain the differences between renewable heating options such as Air Source and Ground Source, the pros and cons, and ultimately assist in helping you make the right decision for your situation and budget.
For more on our renewable energy installation in Ely services:
Air Source Heating
In these systems the air pumps work in a very similar way in extracting heat from the outside air as a fridge extracts heat from it’s inside to cool your food. These heat pumps can operate even when the outside temperature is as low as -15°C.
Ground Source Heating
With a ground source heating system these run on electricity and rely on a heat pump to absorb heat from under the ground and use it to heat your home via radiators and also can supply hot water. These heat pumps are able to do this even when the temperature outside feels very cold, because it’s always a lot warmer underground.
Biomass Heating
Biomass boilers and heating systems work by burning wooden pellets and work on a higher flow temperature than Ground or Air source heat pumps, therefore many radiator layouts and sizes will be adequate without the need to change them.
