Before dwelling into the air to water heat pumps, it is essential to understand what a heat pump is. Heat pumps are machines that draw out heat from one place, increase it to a higher temperature and shift it to another place. Refrigerators and freezers are typical examples of machines that use heat pump technology. Read about heat pumps in detail here.
Air to water heat pumps are popular in Ireland and Europe; it converts solar energy stored in the air into energy. Furthermore, the heating cost can be reduced by 80% by opting for an air to water heat pump.Factors to consider when choosing an air to water heat pump
Known to be among the most efficient air source heat pumps. Air to water heat pumps draws heat from the outside air and shifts it to a water-based system, providing heating and access to hot water.
SEAI offers a grant for up to €3,500. The home must have a heat loss indicator of <2 and must be built before 2011. The homes that do not qualify the requirements must make necessary updates in the form of renovations to their homes.For commercial purposes, the government’s Support Scheme for Renewable Heat (SSRH) is made available to commercial, industrial, agricultural, district heating, public sector and other businesses. Moreover, the scheme can be used for home-based businesses.
Air to water heat pumps for an average Irish home costs between €12,000 to €18,000. The cost includes the installation and price of the equipment. Furthermore, the heat pump has a small single fan which is suitable for a home up to around. Moreover, for a home up to around the cost will vary from €15,000 to €23,000. The equipment price for an air to water heat pump ranges between €3,000 to €12,000, with the average running cost coming around €600 - €1000 per year.
Yes, the International Energy Agency and the EU view air to water heat pumps as a renewable energy source mainly because it extracts free heat from the environment. Moreover, if the energy used to power them is generated from solar panels or wind turbines, it further concretes the idea of renewable energy.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type="in_container" full_screen_row_position="middle" column_margin="default" column_direction="default" column_direction_tablet="default" column_direction_phone="default" scene_position="center" text_color="dark" text_align="left" row_border_radius="none" row_border_radius_applies="bg" overlay_strength="0.3" gradient_direction="left_to_right" shape_divider_position="bottom" bg_image_animation="none"][vc_column column_padding="no-extra-padding" column_padding_tablet="inherit" column_padding_phone="inherit" column_padding_position="all" column_element_spacing="default" centered_text="true" background_color_opacity="1" background_hover_color_opacity="1" column_shadow="none" column_border_radius="none" column_link_target="_self" gradient_direction="left_to_right" overlay_strength="0.3" width="1/1" tablet_width_inherit="default" tablet_text_alignment="default" phone_text_alignment="default" bg_image_animation="none" border_type="simple" column_border_width="none" column_border_style="solid"][vc_column_text]
