With the UK government targeting a heat pump installation rate of 600,000 units per year by 2028, it’s clear this technology is seen as a solution for existing properties as well as new build homes. At Ideal Heating we provide maximum support for end users, installers, contractors, new build developers and housing associations to ensure a pain-free transition to renewable heating.
Heat pumps are a highly efficient, eco-friendly way of providing heating and hot water to our homes. By taking “free energy” from the air via a refrigerant cycle they generate heat without releasing any carbon emissions.
The fan passes ambient air over extremely cold liquid refrigerant. The refrigerant captures the heat from the ambient air and becomes a warm vapour.
The warm refrigerant vapour passes through a compressor which produces hot refrigerant and usable heat.
The heat in the hot refrigerant is then transferred to the heating and hot water cylinder through a heat exchanger.
Once the heat has been transferred to the house, the refrigerant passes through an expansion valve. This reduces its temperature, making it really cold again and enabling it to capture heat from the ambient air, continuing the cycle.
Ideal Heating’s Expert Academy is here to help you gain high quality heat pump training, as easily as possible. We appreciate taking time out for development is an investment for you and your business - that’s why we strive to support you by keeping costs as low as possible.
