FOR THE INSTALLATION OF GROUND SOURCE HEAT PUMPS
Benefits to installing ground source heating
Can be used to heat both water supplies and heating.
Can also be used for cooling systems during warmer seasons.
Government assistance is available for many ground source heating projects.
Ground source heat pumps can be installed to almost any property.
Provides a renewable energy source.
Ensures there’s no need for a separate boiler.
These are just some of the great benefits to installing a ground source heating system. To discover how our services can benefit you further, please get in touch.
Miller Drilling Contractors will thoroughly assess your location to ensure we provide the correct approach.
Ground source heat pumps harness energy for use in homes and commercial projects.
Our investment in high-quality equipment serves as a cornerstone in our approach.
As well as extracting solar energy retained in rock beneath the surface of the earth, ground source heat pumps can be used to harness heat from groundwater. The unit used to utilise heat from groundwater is the same used for closed loop systems but the source used and the collection process differs from that of a ground source heat pump closed loop process. Open loop systems can only be used if a clean, fresh water can be easily accessed on site. These water sources can include lakes, aquifers, and even ponds. As the volume of water required for such systems is quite significant, you would usually require an abstraction license and discharge license, all of which Miller Drilling Contractors can assist with.
Ground source pump boreholes can be used in an array of premises. You will find that larger projects such as social housing, or commercial settings are keen to utilise the earth’s energy via ground source boreholes. They are also preferable when space is scarce as this type of energy extraction uses vertical arrays unlike slinky pipes which lay in vertical trenches below the ground and take up a lot of vertical space which your property may simply not have. Should space be a factor in considering energy extraction, ground source pump boreholes are preferable.
The actual borehole would not be very large at all. As long as our drilling rig can be accommodated then there is enough space for a ground source pump borehole.
