Frequently Asked Questions about Heat Pump Boilers
The way a heat pump boiler works can best be compared to a refrigerator. A refrigerator extracts heat from the inside of the refrigerator and releases it to the outside. A heat pump does the same thing, but with heat from the air or ground around it. It extracts heat from this air or ground and transfers it to the water that needs to be heated.
When the above process cannot provide enough heat, the electric heating rod steps in. Then power is used from the grid or from your own solar panels. A heat pump boiler therefore makes for an interesting combination with solar panels. While the solar panels generate electricity during the day, the contents of the boiler can be fully heated.
