60 to 75 % lower heating costs
Compared to other heating systems, heat pumps are highly economical as they use up to three times less of primary energy than, for example, gas or oil burners. Approximately 75 percent of their energy is recovered from the environment free of charge and thus, they only require about 25 percent in the form of electric power to generate 100 percent output heating power. Investment costs of heat pumps, too, are comparable to those of other systems as they do not require a heating oil or gas tank, or chimney, while maintenance costs are considerably lower.
The initial investment may be higher for the heat pumps; however, due to lower costs of fuel consumed per year, the costs of the two systems are the same after seven years. In the years thereafter, the heat pump will generate considerable savings (grey triangle in the graph) compared to a heating system with heating oil.
An investment into the future
If you decide to install a heat pump today, you should be aware you are making an investment in the next medium- -term period. Its true value lies in many measurable and non-measurable aspects. In addition to the safety of investment, flexibility, low heating costs, comfort, and many economic and ecological benefits, a heat pump is actually an investment in your future and the future of your children.
New construction, refurbishment, or heating system replacement
A heat pump is an ideal solution for heating and cooling of newly constructed or refurbished buildings, or when replacing an existing heating system. Since it operates on the principles of low-temperature heating, it is suitable for both underfloor heating and heating with wall-mounted radiators, as well as a combination of both. Heat pumps are also appropriate for rebuilt or refurbished buildings with radiator heating. If heating water temperature of 60°C suffices even in the coldest days, then heat pumps are the most economical source of heating.
Warm in the winter, cool in the summer
Unique heat pump technology allows your heating system to heat your home during the winter and cool it during the summer. Remarkable thermodynamic characteristics and the capacity of transferring a maximum amount of thermal energy from the environment allow, in addition to economical heating of rooms, heating sanitary water throughout the year. Moreover, without additional work or investment, the system can be used for cooling regardless of whether you use wall-mounted hot air heaters or underfloor heating.
Simple control
Heating with heat pumps will save you time, worries, additional work, and money for supply of other fuels. All systems allow highly convenient and simple operation. A full system will also allow remote control.
