Case Study: Air-Source Heat pump Installation, UK
Air-Source Heat Pump - Beverley 2012This ultra modern property in the heart of Beverley required an off-grid heating solution in an urban environment. We utalised the Danfoss AQ air-source heat pump system because of its quiet design and its industry leading efficiency of 440%. The system provides heating and hot water throughout the year at almost half the cost of oil.
Case Study: Solar PV Installation, East Yorkshire, UK
Solar Photovoltaic - Hull 2012
We used one of the most efficient solar panels in the UK on this installation. Representing a module efficiency of 18% the Sanyo 245 module combines cutting edge technology with state-of-the-art manufacturing. This 4 kWp installation in East Yorkshire has a 10 year manufacturer’s warranty, a 25 year performance warranty and all the work is insurance backed for 10 years. From performance to installation this system is unrivaled.
Case Study: Underfloor Installation Garforth
Under Floor Heating - Garforth. November 2011
This under floor heating system was the final piece of an ultra-efficient heating system. Under floor heating is a much more comfortable method of heat delivery due to the lower temperatures required and radiant heat output. This eliminates the convection currents that radiators produce which in turn means that pollen and bacteria can circulate less freely, giving you improved air quality.
Case Study: Heat Pump, Solar Thermal, Solar PV & Underfloor Heating - York
Whole-energy system - farmhouse renovation. October 2011
This renovated farmhouse is the epitome of eco-conscious living. The heating is provided by a Danfoss 10kW Opti Pro ground source heat pump with a solar-ready buffer tank. The solar thermal contributes to both the heating and hot water via a Danfoss Extender tank whilst the 3. 84kW solar PV system provides electricity to the property. To cap it all off, the underfloor heating system on both floors is an ideal partner to the heat pump.
Case Study: Solar PV Installation, East Riding, UK
Solar Photovoltaic - Warne. September 2011
This project utilised 15 Day4 235w panels to provide a 3.52kWp system. Day4 panels have a high resistance to low light levels and were therefore deemed to be ideal for this property which suffers a small amount of shading in the winter mornings.
" I feel that I got a five star service from Pure renewables, during which I felt fully informed and supported to make all the relevant decisions, which are numerous when making such a significant capital investment. All the staff, from the MD to the installation engineer's assistant, were courteous, professional and accomodating. A pleasure to do business with."
Mark SowerbyCase Study: Ground-Source Heatpump Installation, Whitby, UK
Ground Source Heat Pump - Whitby. April 2011
This property in North Yorkshire, required 20kW of energy per year to heat. After a thorough survey by our design consultant, we were satisfied that a heat pump solution was the best option. The double heat pump and 300 litre hot water tank, services 100% of the heating and hot water throughout the year. Offering unbeatable efficiencies and low fuel bills.
Case Study: Ground-Source Heatpump Installation, Bilton, UK
Ground-Source Heat Pump - Bilton. May 2011
The Ground source heat pump is probably the most efficient renewable energy technology in existence. This property in East Yorkshire boasts a heating system with 424% efficiency. Not only that but by taking the free heat from the ground it guarantees to heat both the space and the water in this property. With a COP rating of 424% and a 7-8 year payback period, not only are these home owners reducing their carbon footprint but also saving money and securing their energy.
Case Study: Air-Source Heatpump Installation, Keswick, UK
Air-Source Heat Pump - Keswick. October 2010
This new build property near Keswick in the Lake District, has both its hot water and central heating supplied by the air source heat pump. Tried and tested in freezing Scandanavian temperatures the air source heat pump offers a COP rate of 400% and life expectancy of 25- 30 years, the owners of this property can be sure of cheap energy bills and warm winters.
Case Study: Solar PV Installation, Swanland, UK
Solar Photovoltaic - Swanland. July 2011
Keen to reduce both energy bills and carbon emissions, this couple have installed both a ground source heat pump to heat their home and a solar PV system to complement the heat pump (which is fuelled by electricity). The solar PV Feed in Tariff provides a generation rebate which contributes to the running cost of the heat pump. This 16 panel Solar PV array boasts a peak output of 3.9 kWp (Kilowatt peak), reducing the homes electricity bills and providing a substantial tax free income.
Case Study: Solar Thermal Installation, Cottingham, UK
Solar Thermal Panels - Cottingham.
This home in Cottingham has two solar thermal collector panels. The Solar Thermal system boasts a coverage of approximately 60% of the home's hot water requirements, using nothing but the power of the sun. The solar collector could pay for itself in 7-9 years, with the impending renewable heat incentive (RHI) these panels could offer not only hot water but also a tax free income.
