We think we have the Best heat pumps around, here's why.

1. Ecotec EAS Series
Air Source Heat Pumps
Ecotec air source heat pumps are better by nature. They are engineered for the UK specifically
to cope with the UK climate and painstakingly designed to give you many years of reliable,
trouble free heating comfort and hot water – as well as summer cooling if desired.
FACT FILE: The EAS series of heat pumps are probably the most efficient, energy-
saving, environmental friendly heat pumps you can buy.
Sophisticated yet simple.
Ecotec heat pumps lift heat from low-temperature ambient air to a higher more useable and
necessary temperature. Ecotec heat pumps are unique because of their ability to upgrade low-
temperature heat to higher useable heat in the most economical way.
Low-temperature heat. Simply put these are naturally found in the ambient air we
breathe all year round. This is the most natural and abundant of all heat resources
continually replenishing itself, year in, year out. Unlimited supply and availability.
Useable heat. This is the heat we all need to keep warm in the winter and to wash and
bathe with (domestic hot water). Swimming pool/hot-tub heating too!
Ecotec EAS heat pumps utilise the incredible free-energy resource of the air to absolute
maximum effect. This wholly natural resource is completely inexhaustible. The potential
is truly limitless.
Lower Operating Cost
An Ecotec air source heat pump system operates more efficiently than ordinary heating (and air
conditioning systems for cooling) because it can deliver an outstanding four units of energy for
every one unit of electrical energy used. By combining the air with safe and reliable electric
power, many Ecotec owners realise savings typically close to 75% for heating and hot water –
even more if you include swimming pool owners!
FACT FILE: Air is by far the most common heat source for heat pumps Worldwide.
Enhanced Comfort
Ecotec air source heat pumps are designed to provide precise distribution of comfort heat all
year round. During the heating season, you will experience controlled warmth without the ‘hot
spots’ often associated with ordinary gas boilers and oil furnaces.
Reliability
Ecotec air source heat pumps are designed for outdoor installation. Unlike air conditioning units,
air source units can withstand weathering effects caused by rain, snow, ice, debris and extreme
temperatures. Air source heat pumps have a proven track record of being extremely reliable
and only require routine maintenance.

2. Quiet
Unlike ordinary air conditioners or most Scandinavian heat pumps, Ecotec EAS Series emit very
low noise levels in order not to disturb you or your neighbours. Our units were purposefully
designed and constructed for "whisper quiet" operation, similar to your domestic refrigerator in
fact. Typically, 30dB @ a 1 metre distance from your home.
Environmentally friendly – zero emissions
Ecotec heat pumps emit NO carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide or other greenhouse gasses
whatsoever. These gasses are considered to be major contributors to global warming. Our heat
pumps are natural and green.
So, how does it work?
No matter what part of the UK you live in, the temperature throughout the year varies. For
some that can mean lazy hot summers that cool to harsh winters.
Ecotec air source systems capture this free and incredibly abundant natural energy and convert
it to useable heating, hot water and cooling.
FACT FILE: What many people do not realise is that the air we breathe contains heat
all year round. That’s 100% free heat!

3. Heating season
During the heating cycle, an Ecotec air source system extracts heat from the air. As the system
pulls heat from the air it increases it by 75% before distributing it through a conventional heating
system. The same extracted heat can be used to create domestic hot water.
Cooling season
In cooling mode, an Ecotec air source system cools your home by reversing the process. Instead
of extracting heat from the air, it is extracted from your home and used to assist generation of
hot water before any surplus is redirected back into the air.
FACT FILE: Save even more - If you like your living room to be 210C on a winter’s day;
you can simply keep it at 210C on a hot summer day. This will feel like cooling and
save you money.
Summer season 30 degrees outside, 21 degrees inside = comfortable.
Winter season -2 degrees outside, 21 degrees inside = comfortable.
FACT FILE: Heat pumps could save 50% of all buildings CO2 emissions, and 5% of the
industrial sectors.
To put it another way; 1.8 billion tonnes of CO2 per year could be saved by using heat pumps.
This corresponds to almost 8% of the TOTAL GLOBAL CO2 EMISSIONS!
An 8% reduction in CO2 emissions is equal to:
 Reducing petrol consumption by 780,000,000 litres or,
 Taking 52 million cars off the road or,
 Planting 50 million hectares of trees (England is 124 million hectares, Wales 20 million!)
