This eco-friendly heat pump offers a sustainable and versatile heating solution, saving energy costs and reducing carbon emissions.

SeaWarm’s heat pump can harness energy from any water body, offering a more sustainable solution for powering homes and businesses.A new type of equipment is being trialed at Edinburgh University to sustainably power homes and offices in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Known as the Water Source Heat Pump , the system utilizes thermal energy stored in these water bodies.The system features a heat exchanger, such as SeaWarm’s HotTwist technology, which is designed to extract heat from the water. The heat exchanger collects thermal energy from the water and transfers it to the heat pump, where it is compressed to a higher temperature suitable for heating purposes.

The report also mentioned that another heat pump system is planned for installation this summer at the Scottish Seabird Centre in North Berwick, which will also harness energy from the Firth of Forth.“While the SeaWarm heat exchanger is coupled to a standard ground source heat pump, it collects heat from water bodies instead of the ground,” the firm explained. The SeaWarm system has a key component – glycol, a liquid used as an anti-freeze agent.

As the glycol travels through the system, it cools down and repeats the process, ensuring continuous heat transfer from the water source to the building, even in colder conditions.
