There are different heating options that require different installation, maintenance and Heating repairs Bromley. Let’s say something more about heat pumps; they need to be installer properly and maintained properly in order to deliver desired heat and to prevent Heating repairs Bromley.
Heat pumps are heating devices that rise heat energy from lower temperature to higher, more acceptable for appropriate application in certain heat distribution system. Heat pumps are renewable energy source and their usage can protect our environment. Heat pump is a way of usage of solar energy accumulated in the ground, water and air that is at our disposal for free-ant it will cover 75% of total need of energy for heat pumps function. Other 25% necessary for compressor work will be covered with electrical energy.
For heat pump installation most important element is the quality of heat source. One can say that heat installation is as good as it is its heat source. Heat sources can be water, air, waste heat, solar energy or ground where ground is heat tank. Choice of appropriate heat energy source will depend on local conditions, type of ground and climate.
Heat source-underground water
Temperature of underground water in continental states doesn’t change during seasons. This is the reason that underground waters are considered as excellent source for both heating and cooling energy. If the ground is appropriate for this purpose, usage of underground waters through pumping and absorbing well can be very efficient. Underground waters aren’t available everywhere in necessary amount and quality, but where these conditions are fulfilled, usability is high.
Heat source ground-horizontal collectors
Ground collector includes system of pipes that can be placed approximately 4-6 feet underground, with distance between pipes approximately 10 feet, depending on the composition and quality of ground. This depth is having approximately similar temperature over entire year (around 5-10 Celsius). Horizontal collectors are good for houses with large yard because necessary free area is approximately 2-2.5 times larger than the heated area. Effect of heat exploiting depends on the quality of ground. The moister ground- the better heating effect.
