ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY WAY OF HEATING

Heat pumps achieve the highest energy class. They produce much fewer CO2 emissions than fossil fuels and heating boilers. When used in combination with solar energy, the heat pump has zero emissions, making it 100% environmentally friendly in terms of air pollution. This allows for complete self-sufficiency and a smaller individual carbon footprint.

For its operation, the heat pump utilizes renewable energy sources, specifically water, air, or ground. The share of electrical energy it consumes solely for operation is on average barely 30%. The remaining 70% of thermal energy comes from renewable sources. Newer and higher-quality heat pumps are even more efficient, meaning the share of consumed electrical energy for operation can be even lower.

The green advantage of heat pumps is also their multifunctionality, as one device can perform three different functions: space heating, domestic hot water heating, and cooling. This saves both on electricity consumption and on production (one device instead of three).

Zero greenhouse gas emissions mean savings on chimney sweeping services, which, frankly, are not so cheap either. A heat pump heating system requires no chimney cleaning. Many wonder about groundwater, whether it is polluted by the heat pump. Absolutely not, groundwater is not polluted, nor does the temperature of the groundwater increase.

Raising public awareness about the impact of fossil fuels on our planet and, secondarily, on our health is virtually crucial. Too few people still realize that extracting and transporting fossil fuels is a highly hazardous process. With small measures, such as replacing the heating system with a more sustainable and eco-friendly version, we can make a significant difference for ourselves and our community.

If you’ve ever wondered what you can do for a cleaner and healthier environment and a safer future for future generations, one of the answers is simple – choose a heat pump! According to 2018 data, the carbon footprint of each resident of Slovenia is a substantial 8.4 tons of CO2. While our performance is relatively good on a global scale (for example, in the USA, this value is twice as high), we all still need to strive for a lower figure in the future.

By choosing our heat pump, you take an additional step in adopting more sustainable measures. Local production translates to savings in CO2 due to reduced transportation. Firstly, because our heat pumps are made in Slovenia, eliminating the need to transport them from the other side of the world to your location. Secondly, there is no need for annual fuel transportation when using oil, wood, or pellets.

Your contribution to a lower carbon footprint and the preservation of the planet can be quite straightforward. By upgrading your heating system, which, in addition to its environmental value, is also cost-effective in the long run compared to all other heating methods.
