Ashgrove Renewables slash 61% off of annual heating bill

Ger Moroney approached Ashgrove to upgrade his existing heating system at his home in Co. Clare. His 230m² home’s original heating system was installed in November 2005, consisting of an oil boiler and two floors of underfloor heating, utilising weather compensating control. A survey revealed his annual heating bill to be approximately € 1,815. Ashgrove installed a 12kW Geothermal Heat Pump with two vertical borehole collectors in August 2008. This unit now provides heating & hot water. A dedicated ESB meter was fitted to the unit to monitor running costs. Over the following 12 months the running cost was calculated at € 722. The client realised a direct saving of € 1,093, or 61% of the previous years running costs.
