Generate hot water sustainably

A heat pump boiler extracts heat from the surrounding air, amplifies that heat and then uses it to heat water. This makes it different from traditional water heaters as it does not rely on direct heating methods such as gas or electricity.

The advantages of a heat pump boiler

Sustainable energy source: the heat pump boiler does not depend on fossil fuels and thus reduces your CO2 emissions

  • Energy efficiency: this boiler uses the ambient air to heat the water and you become less dependent on external energy sources

  • Operating costs: the electricity consumption of heat pump boilers is lower than that of conventional boilers.

  • Constant availability of hot water: unlike an instantaneous water heater, a heat pump boiler has a constant supply of hot water.

  • Funding programs: You can benefit from subsidies and funding

Disadvantages of a heat pump boiler

  • Higher investment costs: A heat pump boiler is more expensive to purchase than a “standard boiler”.

  • Minimum room size: since the heat pump boiler draws heat from the ambient air, the room in which the boiler is installed must be at least 20 cubic meters in size.

  • Dependence on ambient temperature: If the ambient temperature is very low, the efficiency of the boiler may decrease. This can be a problem, especially in cold winter months.

  • Maintenance and repair: Heat pump boilers are more complex devices than conventional gas or electric boilers. They can therefore be more expensive to maintain and require specially trained technicians for repairs.

Cost of a heat pump boiler

According to most manufacturers and tradesmen, the cost of an efficient 300 liter boiler can range between CHF 3,500 and 5,000. If the installation is added, you should expect 5,000 to 7,000. On average, a boiler with a capacity of 300 liters is enough for a family of four or a typical single-family home.

When does a heat pump boiler make sense?

The decision for a heat pump boiler depends on a variety of factors and is particularly useful in the following scenarios:

  • New buildings and renovations: When planning a new building or an extensive renovation, there is a good opportunity to think about and plan for the installation of a heat pump boiler.

  • Increased hot water demand: If your household has a high demand for hot water, a heat pump boiler can be a good choice. It can provide large amounts of hot water more efficiently than traditional water heaters.

  • Environmental awareness: If you are looking to reduce your carbon footprint and use renewable energy, then a hot water heat pump is a great option.

  • Energy and cost savings: Heat pump water heaters are typically more energy efficient than traditional water heaters. They can help reduce energy consumption and associated costs.

It is important to note that a heat pump boiler is not the best solution for every household or situation. Before making a decision, you should carefully consider your specific needs and circumstances and seek professional advice. Buildigo supports you in this and provides you with the right specialists.
