Heat Pump

A heat Pump is an electrical heating system which used the heat which is readily available outside and moves this inside. The principle of operation is the same as in a fridge or freezer

The difference is that the heat is not removed from the house like in a fridge or freezer but instead placed into the house. The typical energy saving when installing a Heat Pump is around 2/3rd and your Return Of Investment is roughly 5-7 years. This makes the Heat Pump an excellent option for heating your home.
