Heat Pumps

How do heat pumps works?

A heat pump works by extracting energy from one place – the air, ground or water and transfers it to your business in an effective, sustainable way.

Air is blown across an evaporator, where heat energy from the air is absorbed by a sealed refrigerant circuit

The heat energy absorbed increases the refrigerant temperature and the refrigerant evaporates from a liquid to a gas, storing the captured energy

The refrigerant gas passes through a compressor where it is pressurised, increasing its temperature even more

The refrigerant gas passes into a condenser where the refrigerant cools and condenses back into a liquid, releasing the heat energy

The released heat is transferred into the building’s heating and hot water circuit

The refrigerant passes back through an expansion valve to begin the whole process again

There are a few different types of heat pump. But they all have one thing in common: they’re powered mainly by renewable energy, making them one of the most economical and eco-friendly heating solutions available today.
