Heat pumps
Renewable energy solutions for sustainable buildings using natural sources such as air, ground and water to provide heating, cooling and hot water.
 
Heat pumps are the perfect partner for heating and cooling systems designed to work at lower water temperatures, helping to support the design and construction of more energy-efficient buildings.
What do heat pumps mean for you?
All in one soluton
Heat pumps can be used to both heat a home or building as well as provide hot water.
Environmentally friendly solution.
No carbon dioxide output helping to reduce carbon footprint of your home.
Saving money on energy bills
Being more efficient than traditional sources, heat pumps consume less energy overall.
High output low noise
Heat pumps are a clean and quiet way to heat and cool your home.
Types of heat pumps
Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
For new residential dwellings, monobloc and split system heat pumps are ideal solutions for efficient hot water generation and space heating.
Hot Water Heat Pumps (HWHPs)
A low-carbon technology for heating hot water, designed to be installed within a building.
Featured product
Edel
Our Edel RF Hot Water Heat Pump (HWHP) is a low carbon technology for heating hot water. This heat pump can create hot water up to 60°C, is high performance with low operational noise and is suitable for installation within service cupboards, garages and utility rooms.
Ambient loops
This system uses a network of water heat pumps connected to an ambient loop and can improve the energy performance of a building.
Ground Source Heat Pumps (GSHPs)
ideal for projects where early consideration can be given to groundworks and infrastructure.
Water Source Heat Pumps (WSHPs)
This variation is best suited to developments that are located near a large body of water.
We offer a wide range of CPD UK and CIBSE accredited CPDs covering different aspects of the design and specification of heat pumps. All CPDs can be delivered online or in person.
CPDs Dimplex is here to assist you in your project with expert information. Our frequently updated and curated content library is here to break down key information, finding you the correct specifications and saving you essential time for your project.
We can offer hands-on face-to-face training on Dimplex products, including heat pump principles and servicing, and a course covering our Edel hot water heat pump.

What is diversity in HVAC systems?
What is diversity in HVAC systems, and how does it affect HVAC system design and specification for residential developments?
Diversity in HVAC systems within medium to large scale developments acknowledges that it is unlikely the maximum demand of all individual users of the system will arise concurrently. The total heat demand in a building is likely to be lower than the maximum or peak demand at various points in the heat network.
What is COP and EER?
The Coefficient of Performance (COP) and Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) are measures of a heat pump or heating and cooling solution’s efficiency. They indicate a ratio of useful heating or cooling produced by the unit against the energy it consumes. For example, the COP of a heat pump that can provide 3kW of heat against the input of 1kW of electricity is 3. The EER that generates a cooling effect of 12BTU against the input of 1kW of electricity is 12.
What Building Regulations are changing during 2020?
2020 has been dubbed the year of change for the built environment, with Government keen on updating compliance targets for new and existing dwellings to enforce change in industries HVAC strategies.
