Geothermal Heating Solution For New Build (Ballymoney, Co. Antrim)
Location: Ballymoney, Co. Antrim
SQ/FT: 2000 sq. ft.
Budget: Two Stacks of Coins
When: November 2024
Objective:
The client approached Daly Renewables intending to reduce energy costs for their new build home. While initially sceptical about the transition from oil heating to a Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP), the client was determined to find a more sustainable heating solution.
As construction had already commenced before engaging the services of Daly, some important design and insulation opportunities were missed. Despite this, Daly Renewables worked closely with the client to overcome these challenges and implement an efficient and cost-effective geothermal heating system.
Key Features:
After a detailed consultation, Daly Renewables implemented the following renewable energy solutions:
- EcoForest EcoGEO+ 1-6 PRO Lite: (excluding MHRV system).
- Heating distribution pipework
- Cylinder (300L)
- Roth underfloor heating
- CEM modules
- Solar PV system
Results and Benefits
While initially hesitant about moving from oil to geothermal, the client was reassured by Daly’s expertise. With our proven track record, we were able to show the actual outcomes and real-life advantages of geothermal heating for low-energy homes, including long-term control over energy costs.
Due to the stage the construction was already at, Daly Renewables had to implement extra measures, such as cutting the floor to install ducts for the GSHP, along with providing key airtightness advice to ensure optimal efficiency.
With over 17 years of industry experience and expertise in self-build projects, Ryan and the team ensured the seamless scheduling of the installation with all the client’s project milestones being met.
By choosing the EcoGEO+ 1-6 PRO Lite, the client is now on track to achieve significant energy savings. Despite the initial reservations, the homeowner is confident in their decision, knowing they now have a reliable and sustainable heating solution to meet their long-term energy goals.
