With bitter winters and unpredictable summers, keeping your property at the right temperature can be difficult in England. What’s more, as a business or commercial enterprise, regulating the climate of a workplace can become costly and damaging to the environment if done inefficiently.
Fortunately, with advancements in technology and an increased understanding of our own duties to reduce carbon emissions and slow climate change, there are measures that can be taken to actively fight these issues. One solution that can have a positive impact on your business is the installation of an air source heat pump.
What Is An Air Source Heat Pump?
Essentially, air source heat pumps are heating units around the same size and shape as a traditional air conditioning system. Situated on the outside of your office or commercial building, the pumps work by extracting heat from the air and compressing it. This warm air is then condensed into a liquid which is sent to radiators and underfloor heating systems.
There are numerous benefits associated with the use of air source heat pumps, so here are a few reasons why they could be the right choice for your business.
Lower Energy Bills
One thing we all love is saving money, and an air source heat pump could help you do exactly that. By installing one of these systems, a large portion of your heating and cooling can be provided from the air outside. This means significant savings in comparison to outdated heating systems such as a coal or electrically powered heating system.
Of course, the cost of running an air source heat pump is variable depending on your building’s efficiency and the amount of heat required, but when used in the right context, they’re a real money saver.
Lower Emissions
Moreover, as air source heat pumps rely on the air from outside to regulate the temperature of your building, they are a low carbon heat source. This means that in comparison to other traditional heating systems, they produce significantly less carbon emissions.
By using an air source heat pump, your business can take a positive step in reducing its carbon footprint, becoming a greener organisation.
Low Maintenance
Another brilliant thing about air source heat pumps is the fact that, along with a simple installation process, they require incredibly low maintenance. As long as filters and vents are cleared regularly, the system will only need to be serviced by a reliable engineer once every 12 months or so. This means you can rest assured that your business’ heating will be consistent and cost effective all year round.
