Greencon Heat Pumps

Heat pumps are an excellent alternative to passive energy collection systems. They still rely on electrical power but there advantage lies in the extremly efficient way they manage to heat water. At optimal ambient tempreture (20degC) they can work at an energy conversion factor of +/- 4.5times. So for every one kilowatt of power you put in, you get at least 4,5kw(thermal) out.
Sounds like a whole lot of Greek? Basically you can look at a saving of up to 70% on electrical usage for heating water.
We have installed heat pumps in areas from the Pilanesburg Game Park, to Johannesburg, Pretoria and along our coastal regions with very good results.
