http://www.dhpi.co.uk How Do They Work?Ground source heat pump systems do not heat a home by burning fuel. They collect heat from the Earth via a pipe or pipes buried in the ground. These pipes are called loops and contain a mixture of water and antifreeze. The fluid is circulated through these loops by an electric pump into a compressor and heat exchanger. The heat from the fluid is transferred to a refrigerant with a low boiling point. This in turn causes the refrigerant to change to a gas, which is then compressed increasing its temperature ...
