HEAT PUMPS
BENEFITS OF HEAT PUMPS
Heat pumps offer a highly efficient way to heat and cool your home by transferring heat instead of generating it, significantly reducing energy consumption and costs. With dual functionality, they provide both heating and cooling, ensuring year-round comfort with just one system. Heat pumps maintain a stable indoor temperature regardless of the weather, delivering consistent comfort in all seasons.
Environmentally friendly, they use renewable energy from sources like air, ground, or water, helping reduce your carbon footprint. Although the initial installation cost may be higher, heat pumps can save homeowners 20-40% annually on heating and cooling bills, offering substantial long-term savings. Built to last, they have a lifespan of 14 to 50 years, are low-maintenance, and offer a safe, reliable heating option.
Additionally, a professionally installed heat pump can boost your property value, especially when integrated with smart home technology. Their compact design, lack of fuel storage requirements, and quiet operation make heat pumps an efficient, sustainable, and valuable investment for any home.

HOW DO HEAT PUMPS WORK?
Heat pumps work by taking natural warmth out of the surrounding environment to provide hot water and heating to your home. There are three main types of heat pump: ground source, air source and water source. The name of each one describes where the appliance takes its heat from, and, therefore, each one works in a slightly different way.
Absorption
Before anything else can happen, the heat must first be collected. Depending on the type of heat pump, the heat will be absorbed by a refrigerant either from the ground, air or water source. This takes place in the evaporator with the refrigerant changing from liquid to gas in the process.
Compression
The refrigerant is now a gas instead of a liquid and the gas is compressed to increase its temperature even more. It is this heat that can be used to warm up your radiators or underfloor heating.
Condenser
As the refrigerant transfers heat to your home's heating system, it cools and condenses into a liquid in a second heat exchanger. Heat pumps are efficient because cooler water from the central heating continues to absorb heat from the liquid refrigerant in this exchanger.
Repeat
Once the refrigerant has cooled right down, it passes through an expansion valve. In here, the liquid’s pressure is decreased and it returns to the evaporator to begin the whole cycle again.
IDEAL FOR NEW BUILDS AND RENOVATIONS
They can be ideal whether you are looking for a heating system for a new build or a renovation, and they can be operated in conjunction with solar thermal systems to bring further cost savings and environmental benefits. In addition, they can be combined with an existing gas or oil heating system to form a multi-mode system. This enables every building and property owner to implement their plans in the most efficient way possible.

GRANTS & DISCOUNTS
Commercial NDMG Solar PV Scheme
New funding ranges from €2,700 to €162,600 to support an even wider range of businesses to switch to solar. This will typically support 20-30% of the investment cost, reducing payback to as little as 5 years. New Solar PV Scheme enhancements will boost business investment in renewable energy generation
Domestic Solar PV Grant
A grant is available to all owners of dwellings built and occupied before Dec 2020 and where SEAI have not previously provided support for solar PV system at that address. How much you can receive from the grant is dependant on the size of the system that was installed. A grant of up to 2,400 euros is available for a solar PV which is installed on your property.
TAMS3 For Farms
In February 2023, the Minister for Agriculture announced the latest TAMS project, TAMS 3, which includes a significant initiative: grants for the installation of solar panels and batteries. All of the electricity generated from the installation of Solar PV on farms must be used for agricultural purposes. Gov.ie gives further information of the eligible items and their associated costs.
EV Home Charging Grant
Claim up to €600 towards the purchase and installation of an electric vehicle home charging unit. When Combined with a solar PV system you can use the green energy generated from your solar panels at home to charge your electric vehicle in the most efficient and sustainable way. Friendly on the environment and your pocket!
