Ecological Effects of Heat Pumps

Wednesday, October 12th, 2011

To protect the environment for future generations to come, today’s businesses are striving to reduce their impact on the ecosystem and help lower carbon emissions. There are numerous ways that your business can go about this, however, one measure that requires little change in your day to day running is swapping your heating system for an environmentally friendly one. Here at Oakland Group we supply and install heat pumps which are proven to be ecologically beneficial.

One system that has become recognised in its efforts to actively reduce carbon emissions is the Ecodan. This unique system works like no other, rather than drawing in stale air from an office, heating it up and circulating it around a building, the Ecodan uses energy already in existence in outdoor air to raise the temperature of it. This method of upgrading the energy uses considerably less power, which therefore lowers the ecological effects.

Instead of producing less than 1kw of energy from 1kw of input energy, the Ecodan can produce 3kw of energy from 1wk of input energy. This has the effect of lowering energy consumption by 30% and subsequently the amount of CO₂ which is produced.

This is a considerable change in energy usage, especially when you consider that all it takes is a replacement of your current heating system. This may sound like a lengthy and expensive process for your business to undertake, however upon contact our professionals here at Oakland Group you can have the unit fitted, confident that it is undertaken with the upmost professionalism and expertise to avoid any damage occurring to your office fit out London.

If you, as an innovative and proactive business want to take the lead in reducing the amount of CO₂ produced, then make sure you get in touch with Oakland Group today. We have the experience, the expertise and the core skills to be able to fit these specific heat pumps with ease. Call us today on 0800 542 2580.

What Size Heat Pump Do You Need?

Tuesday, June 21st, 2011

Providing an effective and productive working environment depends on a range of variables, which can be enhanced or adjusted to promote an environment which is comfortable for your employees to work in. One way to produce a comfortable environment is to install a heat pump. A heat pump allows the operator to adjust the climate of a room in order to achieve the optimum temperature. Yet how do you choose the correct size of heat pump?

Here at Oakland Group we supply, install and maintain heat pumps on a daily basis. We offer our customers a premium service which we believe is unrivalled. Choosing the type and size of heat pump for your premises can be difficult, so the team here at Oakland Group have devised a small guide to choosing the right heat pump for your premises.

The size of the heat pump which you require depends on numerous variables surrounding the overall heat loss and heat gain of your property. To effectively measure this, you need to seriously consider contacting a team of professionals, such as us here at Oakland Group.

Before choosing the size or even type of heating system which you will need to effectively heat your premises, our professional engineers will come out and perform a thorough examination to determine the amount of heat lost and the amount of heat gained in order to calculate the size of heating system needed to provide a comfortable working environment.

By sourcing the professional help of the experts here at Oakland Group, we can install the correct heat pump with minimum fuss or disruption.

Heat Pump Repair

Thursday, October 14th, 2010

As the key device within efficient dual cooling and warming air conditioning units, the heat pump is an intelligent method of turning cooler air into heat. The pump works by moving air from one location to another, within a process wherein heat will be created. This then consequently allows the system to pump warm air into the environment, effectively heating the room or building. This offers a highly beneficial and practical method of combined air conditioning. Over time, your heat pump may naturally need vital reparation to ensure it continues at full capacity, which is why we at Oakland are here to provide you with such crucial services, whenever you may need them.

Sudden breakdown or failure to function correctly may result in inconvenient consequences. Within a commercial setting, the absence of heat may prevent your business from continuing to work, due to the uncomfortable environment. In a domestic setting, householder’s may be left with unpleasant temperatures which inhibit their usual daily routine or ability to relax. For such situations, we provide a rapid 24 hour response team, to efficiently repair problematic heat pumps, and restore your familiar, welcoming environment.

Such excellent service requires a team of highly trained professionals, and with our fleet of qualified and productive engineers, we continue to meet and excel within the high standards which we set for ourselves. There is no charge for call outs, meaning that you no longer have to hesitate in calling for assistance in an air conditioning emergency, as we won’t penalise you for faulty systems which are beyond your control.

Offering a range of services, including air conditioning installation, electrical facilities design and construction, and of course, essential maintenance and repairs for your air conditioning and heat pump, we at Oakland are able to provide you with a whole expert package across all aspects of the air conditioning industry.

What Is A Heat Pump?

Thursday, August 26th, 2010

Both central heating and air conditioning are vital within homes and businesses, they can not only maintain the temperature within the building but also the comfort of the occupiers. However, traditional systems can be expensive to run and inefficient, meaning that they can cost huge quantities of money for very little return. At Oakland we are consistently looking for ways to boost energy efficiency and now install heat pumps into many businesses across the UK. But what exactly is a heat pump and how is it beneficial?

A heat pump is essentially a mechanism that draws air from the outdoors, and utilises it as part of the heating or cooling process. Using this type of air is considered to be much more energy efficient, as it uses the energy within the air to aid the heating or cooling process – fundamentally it upgrades the energy, rather than having to start the heating process from scratch.

At Oakland our experienced technicians specialise in the installation of our range of heat pumps. These products are approximately 3 times as efficient as a traditional boiler, as they can convert 1 kW of input energy to 3.6kW, compared to a boiler which can convert 1kW to less than 1kW of heat.

Our selection of heat pumps are much more cost effective than traditional systems too, as they are controlled by an inverter. This means that the amount of heat that is required will be produced using only the specific amount of input energy needed to complete the process.

Further details about heat pumps and the benefits of our range of products can be viewed by visiting our website and clicking on the ‘heat pump’ page. Property owners that would like to discuss utilising a heat pump within their home or business can speak to a member of our team by filling out our online contact form.
