Heat pumps (reverse process as realized in a refrigerator) use the heat from the environment and gain relative to the applied electrical drive energy, up to 4.5 times more heat for your building. To gain the energy from the environment, collectors of air, soil or water can be used.

If water is not nearby, a soil collector will usually be the most appropriate solution, since in winter higher amounts of heat can be gained in comparison to an air collector.

In addition, heat pumps cool in summer, which regenerates the soil surrounding the collector. This allows a higher heat withdrawal in winter and reducts the cost of your geothermal heat pump.

The use of geothermal energy is characterized by high investments that can be reduced through grants, long life and low operating and consumable costs (assuming that the cost of electricity rise by the same proportion as the cost of fuel oil). If these costs are set in relation to one another, we recognize that long-term geothermal energy is the cheapest form of heating (following graph shows the cost for a family house). The relative total cost savings compared to the above heating systems are independent of the size, use, or insulation standard of the house.

A heat pump provides the following benefits:
- Long-term stable heat prices
- Very durable
- nearly maintenance free and reliable
- Can cool in summer
- Houses are long-term dehumidified
- Combine with heat recovery
- In addition for monovalent operation:
- No construction costs for a chimney in the new building
- No costs for a chimney sweep
- No oil and gas tanks.
