All geothermal and ground source heat pumps work without any combustion, making them safer than man alternatives, as well as lower operating costs and minimal maintenance costs. In addition they provide the following benefits over conventional heating systems.
- Unobtrusive - there are no exposed external units or noise
- No emissions except for the minimal energy used by the pump to drive water around the system
- No fuel handling/storage requirements
- Long lifetime
- Lower maintenance and running costs
- Significant reduction in consequential Carbon Dioxide
Although ground source heat pumps require space to lay the loops of pipe, so you will need a garden, although you don't need much space. The running costs are minimal and will operate year round.
