Case Studies > Ground Source Heat Pumps 
Overview 
In response to rising energy costs and coupled with the public’s increasing environmental awareness, there is a desire for a more efficient method of heating the home with a lower impact on the environment and reduced running costs. Domestic heating is traditionally performed by an oil / gas boiler or occasionally an electric immersion heater - however these options are dwindling in popularity due to the high cost of oil and gas and the increasing scarcity of fossil fuels. 
 
The Solution 
Drawing on years of expertise in industrial heating and cooling, TES have developed a range of Ground Source Heat Pumps aimed at domestic applications. The heat pump draws water from the ground (typically a borehole) and extracts heat from it, which is then raised in temperature and delivered to the heated area. Two separate water circuits are available, one for space heating up to 55 °C and another for potable domestic hot water up to 65°C.  
 
Outcome 
TES Heat pumps are now installed in many properties across the country, from small to large, and are providing heating and hot water throughout the year, saving the user money and vastly reducing carbon emissions.
