Firstly, consider which heat source is the most economical to utilize – the one that is available and has the highest average temperature during the heating season.
This is primarily groundwater, which has an average temperature of around +10 °C. It must be of adequate quality and in sufficient quantities, at least 0.2 m3/h for each kW of the heat pump’s heating power.
The next option is utilizing the accumulated heat from the ground in the form of installing a horizontal collector or a geosystem. In the first case, we need an appropriate free land area. In the second case, access to the drilling machine must be enabled.
If these options are not available, the best choice is the heat from the surrounding air – an air-to-water heat pump. Air is, of course, available everywhere, but it has the lowest average temperature compared to the previously mentioned heat sources, making it potentially slightly less efficient.
Once we have determined the availability of heat sources and have multiple options, we compare investments and heating costs for each heat source. The return on investment calculation guides us in choosing the right heat pump.
