Why not use what’s close at hand?
Energy at your doorstep.

With Dimplex heat pumps you can choose between three types of heat sources: the outside air, the ground or ground water.

Dimplex air-to-water heat pumps utilise the outside air as their energy source. Even at temperatures of up to -20 °C, heat pumps can still extract heating energy from the outside air.

Dimplex brine-to-water heat pumps utilise the ground via borehole heat exchangers. Either ground heat collectors installed horizontally in the ground close to the surface or borehole heat exchangers placed vertically in the ground convey the heat to the surface. One decisive advantage: ground heat can also be used for cooling in the summer.

Dimplex water-to-water heat pumps extract the heat from the ground water provided that it is available in adequate quality and volume and that approval of local water authorities has been granted.

To find out which heat source and which heat pump are most suitable for your property, it is best to consult your local heating specialist.
