The Difference

Air Source Heat Pumps vs. Ground Source Heat Pumps

Both air source and ground source heat pumps use similar engineering principles. However, they both use different methods of heat transfer: while air source heat pumps utilise the ambient temperature of the air with fans and an evaporator.

On the other hand, ground source heat pumps use geothermal warmth to heat a brine, which is then used to heat the refrigerant.

In practical terms, air source heat pumps can be installed outside your home, while ground source heat pumps require a trench. Read further to find out which is the best choice for you. Speak with our team today.
