They work by extracting heat from the ground outside your home, compressing it into a higher temperature, and transferring it inside to heat your home. They are extremely efficient and can produce up to four times more energy than they consume. This makes them one of the most eco-friendly heating solutions available today. Unlike air source heat pumps, ground source heat pump efficiencies are not affected by outside temperature changes and can provide reliable heating all year round.
One of the main advantages of ground source heat pumps over other heating solutions is their high efficiency. They are more efficient than other heat pump types and can help you save on your energy bills. When coupled with solar panels and battery storage they are even more efficient! Additionally, they are better suited for heating larger properties, making them an excellent choice for homeowners with larger homes.

They require a significant amount of land to install the ground loops and may not be suitable for homes with limited outdoor space. Boreholes however can be used to mitigate this. Some GSHPs can be reversed in the summer to provide cooling in the house. In this scenario the heat pump takes heat from your house during hot weather and puts it into the ground outside It replenishes the stored heat in the ground, making the heat pump even more efficient. It should be noted that heat pumps that can cool are not eligible for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant.
