Anyone here had any experience of these? (installation/costs and so on....)
We're in the process of having one installed - with 600m of collector
pipework in three trenches.
Out here in Ireland the estimate for the work was in the region of
12000 euro - quite a lot of which is for the 'groundwork'. Good news
is that out here there's a government grant for 4000 euro.
The heat pump itself is rated at 2kw - and is reckoned to return 2-3
kw of heat for every kw of electricity. The system we're having has
two pumps, one for whole-house heating and the other for when you only
want domestic hot water...
If you need any more info then please ask
