Looking to get some anecdotal experiences from someone living in a cold climate using a heat pump as their main source of heat.
Looking to get some anecdotal experiences from someone living in a cold climate using a heat pump as their main source of heat.
Swede here, my parents use geothermal heating, my apartment has district heating.
Do you mean a ground source heat pump? What is the lowest temperature there?
I guess that would be another name for it…
We have had temps down to -30C, and it has been fine, and way cheaper than direct electricity.
Yes, ground-source heat pumps are very common in Sweden. I’ve seen a bunch, they work well. I’ve seen them working well in old houses with air temps under -10 C, but I know they’re installed even in places that get down to -20 or -30.
