Ground Source Heat Pump Installation in Kearsley, Bolton

Imagine a heating system that works silently in the background, providing constant warmth without needing a single drop of oil or a puff of gas. That is exactly what a ground source heat pump (GSHP) does. Even in the middle of a freezing Lancashire winter, the ground stays at a steady 10–12°C. By circulating a mix of water and glycol through pipes buried in your garden, we can harvest that energy and compress it into high-grade heat for your radiators and hot water. While a brand-new gas boiler might be 90% efficient, a GSHP can achieve a Seasonal Coefficient of Performance (SCOP) of 4.0 or higher. In plain English? For every 1kW of electricity the pump uses, you get 4kW of heat back. It is essentially 400% efficient, which is a game-changer for your monthly outgoings.

A common question we get from Kearsley residents is: 'Will this actually fit in my garden?' The answer depends on your space, but we almost always have a solution. If you have a larger property or maybe a bit of a paddock near the edge of Bolton, horizontal ground loops are a fantastic choice. We dig shallow trenches and lay out the pipework in 'Slasher' coils. However, if your outdoor space is a bit more compact, don't worry. We can use vertical boreholes instead. These go down up to 150 metres, using very little surface area. We use high-quality thermal grout to seal these boreholes, ensuring maximum heat conductivity. Whether you’re in a detached house with a sprawling lawn or a more suburban plot, we’ll design a system that fits perfectly without ruining your landscaping.
