šš»āāļøHave You Heard of Heat Pumps? With the UK government banning the sale of gas boilers after 2035, heat pumps are being promoted as an environmentally friendly alternative. These pumps look like air conditioning units and run on electricity.š ļ½šThe Main Principle of Heat Pumpšļ½ The principle behind a heat pump is to capture heat from the air and convert it into hot water using a compressor. Compared to gas and electric water heaters, heat pumps can save over 50% of energy consumption. However, while the running cost may be lower than that of gas water heaters, the long-term savings are still subject to verification. ļ½šøThe Main Principle of Heat Pumpšøļ½ Using a heat pump for water heating may be cheaper than using a natural gas water heater, but in the long run, it remains to be seen whether a heat pump can help you save money in the long term. ļ½āļøInstalling A Heat Pumpāļøļ½ Installing a heat pump requires placing the outdoor unit, which is similar in appearance to an air conditioning unit, at least one meter away from the neighbor's house due to the noise it produces. However, theĀ noise levelĀ is usually lower than that of a household refrigerator. Additionally, a water storage tank needs to be installed indoors. ļ½š¤Aspects To Considerš¤ļ½ If the heat pump is drawing heat from the ground, a hole needs to be dug near the outdoor unit, which can be as deep as several meters. Installing a heat pump can be more complicated and expensive than other water heating options.š°š°ļ¼ š„“While installing a heat pump can be costly it can save you money on electricity bills in the long run.
