HEAT PUMPS
A heat pump is an incredibly efficient method for heating or cooling a building using renewable energy. Heat can be found in the ground, air, and water surrounding your home, and these natural heat sources are continuously replenished by the sun, wind, and rain. By harnessing these free and renewable energy sources, a heat pump can provide heating and hot water at a very low cost.
UNDERFLOOR HEATING
Underfloor Heating Systems are heated by warm water circulating in continuous pipe loops that are clipped to tracking, which is embedded in concrete. There are no joints in the pipe which ensures 100% reliability. The pipes in the floors can reach a temperature of 30°C if necessary, but normally 22°C to 24°C surface temperature which leaves a comfortable room temperature of 21°C which can be adjusted to the user’s own desire, and bedrooms can run cooler.
SERVICING & MAINTENANCE
Alternative Heating & Cooling carries out service/maintenance on most makes and models of heat pumps, including models that are no longer in production. Even older geothermal systems are worth maintaining due to longer lifespan less maintenance than Air to Water. Our store is well stocked with spare parts for all the heat pumps we supply.
BESPOKE SYSTEMS
We specialise in bespoke heat pump systems tailored to each customer's unique specifications and energy-saving needs. Our expert team designs and installs systems that optimize efficiency, reduce carbon footprints, and lower energy bills. Trust us for customized, sustainable heating and cooling solutions that perfectly fit your lifestyle. We also offer site surveys to sit down and discuss your best option with us.
DEHUMIDIFIERS
We provide dehumidification units for various applications, e.g. drying rooms in fire stations (removes moisture from wet gear), seaweed drying, swimming pools, etc. Conventional dehumidifiers (such as those available in tool hires) run at temperatures up to 25/30°C. HiDew dehumidifiers can run up to 45°C ambient air temperature under control conditions (high airflow & specific refrigerant charge levels) and modified gas.
POOL & SPA HEATING
Due to a desired 30°C water temperature, heat pumps are an ideal solution for swimming pool heating, providing an economic and energy efficient means of delivering constant pool water temperature throughout the year. Air Source heat pumps are suitable due to their low installation cost and efficiency at high temperatures during the summer although Geothermal should be considered for more effective all year round operation.
