Ice Energy, Two Rivers Housing and Aqua Construction win Gloucester City Council award for Best Climate Friendly Scheme
Ice Energy has successfully negotiated a unique new grant for air source heat pumps under the European Carbon Emissions Reduction Targets.
We have been forecasting the closure of the LCBP grants for a little while now and the axe fell at midnight last night.
This detached property is in a rural location, comprising 300m², two bathrooms, four bedrooms and three reception rooms.

If you live close to a lake or a watercourse, lake water heat is a good option. Even if the water is under ice during the winter, the heat in it can still be extracted.
The collector hose is laid on the lake bed and held in place by weights. The principle is the same as for surface soil heat. A non-toxic liquid circulates in the hose. The temperature of the liquid is raised a few degrees by the heat in the water. By compression in the heat pump, the temperature of the liquid is raised and the heat is transferred to your radiators. This thermal energy can also be used to heat the domestic hot water.
The only work needed on your property is to dig a trench from the water to the house.
