Ecopac are specialists in designing and installing new or replacement heating systems driven by air source heat pump from domestic to large commercial systems, heat pumps are one of the most efficient technologies available today.

How do they work?

An air source heat pump extracts heat from the outside air in the same way that a fridge extracts heat from its inside. It can extract heat from the air even when the outside temperature is as low as minus 15° C.  Heat pumps require electricity to drive cooling fans, compressor and pump, but the heat they extract from the ground, air, or water is constantly being renewed naturally.

The benefits of air source heat pumps

Reduce your fuel bills: air source heat pumps run on electricity, so there's no need to pay for gas, oil or solid fuels to heat your home. Emissions can be reduced further if the heat pump is powered by another renewable technology, such as Solar (PV)

No fuel deliveries required.

Can provide space heating and hot water

Can be a direct replacement to your existing boiler

It’s often classed as a ‘fit and forget’ technology because it needs little maintenance.

The Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) is expected to be launched in April 2011, and will provide financial support to encourage the uptake of renewable and low carbon heat technologies like heat pumps.

For more information see the Renewable Heat Incentives page here.

To reduce your CO2 emissions further, consider installing solar photovoltaic’s (PV) or some other form of renewable electricity generating system to power the compressor and pump.
