Ground Source Heat Pumps | Greentech Renewable Solutions

🌱 Ground Source Heat Pumps

Efficient • Sustainable • Future-Ready

At Greentech Renewable Solutions Ltd, we supply and install high-performance Ground Source Heat Pumps (GSHPs) — an innovative and eco-friendly way to heat your home or business by harnessing the natural warmth stored beneath the ground.

💡 What Is a Ground Source Heat Pump?

A ground source heat pump uses underground pipes to extract low-temperature heat from the earth. This renewable heat is then compressed to a higher temperature and distributed through your central heating and hot water systems.

Unlike traditional gas or oil boilers, GSHPs use electricity to move heat rather than generate it — making them far more efficient and better for the environment.

✅ Key Benefits

  • Up to 400% energy efficiency
  • Significantly reduces heating bills
  • Compatible with underfloor heating & radiators
  • Lower carbon footprint vs fossil fuels
  • Eligible for financial incentives

🌍 How It Works

  • A loop of buried pipes (horizontal or vertical) absorbs heat from the ground
  • The system transfers this heat into your home
  • Works for space heating, hot water, or both — even in winter

🏡 Ideal For

  • New-builds or major renovations
  • Homes with gardens or land for trenching or boreholes
  • Homeowners looking to future-proof with renewable heating

🔧 Our Services Include

  • System design & energy consultation
  • Full installation of horizontal or vertical GSHPs
  • Maintenance, service & aftercare

📈 When Will I See a Return on My Investment?

Return depends on property size, current system, usage, and incentives. Most homeowners see ROI within:

⏳ 6 to 12 years

This includes energy savings and available government grants like the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) or Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI).

💷 How You Save:

  • 30–60% reduction in heating bills
  • Lower maintenance costs
  • Stable, predictable energy costs
  • Long lifespan: 20–25+ years (ground loops: up to 50)
🏡 Example: Switching from oil could save £600–£1200/year, totaling £6000–£12000 over a decade.

💷 Ground Source Heat Pump Costs

🔧 Installation Costs:

  • Horizontal: £16,200 – £31,000
  • Vertical: £23,200 – £49,000
  • Average: Approx. £28,000 (before grants)

🏱 Government Grants:

Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS): £7,500 grant (England & Wales)

Adjusted Average Cost: £20,500 after grant

💡 Additional Considerations:

  • Annual Running Cost: ~£1,020
  • Maintenance: Minimal, low-cost over time
  • System Lifespan: 20–25 years (pump); up to 50 years (loops)

🛠️ How Long Does Installation Take?

Total duration: ⏳ 7 to 14 days, depending on system size and ground type.

  • Site Survey & Design: 1–2 days
  • Ground Loop Install: 2–5 days
  • System Installation: 2–4 days
  • Testing & Handover: 1 day
🔦 You can usually remain in your home with minimal disruption.
