We can provide ground source heat pump installations, servicing, and ongoing repairs and maintenance. These systems use the natural heat stored in the ground to efficiently heat your home and provide hot water, offering a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to traditional heating.
Our experienced team ensures each ground source heat pump is installed correctly, maintained for optimal performance, and repaired promptly if any issues arise.

A ground source heat pump (GSHP) is a renewable heating system that extracts heat from the ground to provide space heating and hot water for a building. Unlike an air source heat pump, which takes heat from the air, a ground source heat pump uses the relatively constant temperature of the ground as a heat source, making it highly efficient even in colder weather.
A few metres down, the ground stays at a fairly steady temperature all year round. As a result, a ground source system keeps performing well even in the depths of winter, when the air outside is at its coldest.
Ground source systems often produce 3 to 4 kW of heat for every 1 kW of electricity used, so very little energy goes to waste.
There are two main options, and the right one depends on your land.
Around Presteigne and the Welsh borders, many properties have the space a ground loop needs. However, if land is limited, air source heat pumps may be a simpler choice. We’ll always give you an honest recommendation, even if it’s not ground source.
We supply and install the full system, then stay on hand for ongoing support. You can see examples of our work in our gallery.
Farms, rural businesses, holiday lets and larger buildings often have both the land and the heating demand that suit ground source. Find out more about our commercial heat pumps service. You can also add solar thermal panels to give your hot water an extra boost in the sunnier months.
We’re based in Presteigne and install ground source heat pumps throughout Powys and Herefordshire, including Builth Wells, Hay-on-Wye, Hereford, Leominster and Llandrindod Wells, plus the rural villages and farms in between.
A ground source system is built to last. Ground loops can typically last 50 years or more, while the heat pump itself usually lasts around 20 to 25 years. Even so, regular heat pump servicing helps keep it running at its best. We check the heat pump unit, ground loop pressures, circulation pumps and controls, catching small issues before they grow.
If your system develops a fault, our heat pump repairs service is here to help, with emergency call-outs available every day. We also work on systems fitted by other installers, and we offer ongoing maintenance plans.
Learn more about us and how we work.
Highly energy-efficient, often producing 3–4 kW of heat for every 1 kW of electricity used
Provides low-carbon heating, reducing energy bills and environmental impact
Works well for large homes or new builds where underfloor heating or low-temperature radiators are feasible
Long lifespan: ground loops can last 50+ years, while the heat pump itself lasts around 20–25 years
Air Source Heat Pump: Extracts heat from the outside air.
Ground Source Heat Pump: Extracts heat from the ground via buried loops of pipe.
ASHP = easier, cheaper upfront, good for most homes.
GSHP = more efficient long-term, lower running costs, requires more space and higher initial investment.
Heat collection – Pipes (called a ground loop) are buried horizontally or vertically in the garden or land surrounding the property. A fluid circulates through these pipes, absorbing heat from the ground.
Heat transfer – The warmed fluid passes through a heat exchanger in the heat pump, transferring heat to the refrigerant inside the system.
Compression – The refrigerant is compressed, raising its temperature further.
Distribution – The heat is then used to warm water for radiators, underfloor heating, or domestic hot water supply.
