What is an Air to Water Heat Pump? (Air Source Heat Pump)

An air to water heat pump is not a new technology is an electrical device that extracts heat from one place and transfers it to another. A heat pump is not a new technology; it has been used around the world for decades. Refrigerators and air conditioners are both common examples of this technology.

Heat pumps transfer heat by circulating refrigerant through a cycle of evaporation and condensation. A compressor pumps the refrigerant between two heat exchanger coils. In one coil, the refrigerant is evaporated at low pressure and absorbs heat from its surroundings.

Improved performance and faster heat up times

The Joule Kodiak cylinder provides improved performance and faster heat up times using smooth tube coil. Pre-plumbed cylinders come complete with integrated hydraulic components and advance controls.

Designed to minimise floor space and footprint whilst still offering optimum performance, the cylinder completely integrates with the Samsung monobloc air source heat pump range.

The next generation compact Pre-Plumbed pack is designed to control the distribution of heat to each zone. A unique, patented, modular zonal control manifold for heating and hot water systems.

Joule have optimised the layout of the preplumb developing a patented hydraulic design while also making it easier and faster to install the cylinder with improved access for the installer

Underfloor Heating

What Is Underfloor Heating?
Underfloor heating is a way to evenly and effectively add radiant heating to your home. Think of it as a large radiator under your floor but unlike radiators the heat is spread evenly throughout your home so you don’t end up with any cold areas.

Unlike radiators that just heat the air around them, underfloor creates radiant heat that gives you a warm, cosy and comfortable home.

Choosing the right fixing system
If you are looking at getting underfloor heating for your property, many different types of underfloor fixing methods are available depending on your property’s footprint and area sizes. Whether it be a new build, pre-existing dwelling, or substantial renovation project. Also if you are looking to get underfloor heating not just on the ground floor but potentially on the second and third floor of your property.

We have all the fixing methods you will need for getting the right underfloor heating installation for your property, including screed, suspended floors, and overlay fixing methods.

Solar Heating

What Is a Solar Thermal Panel?
While solar PV panels use the energy from the sun to generate electricity, solar thermal panels use the sun to heat up water. As such, solar PV panels and solar thermals are two very different technologies. Solar thermal uses free renewable energy from the sun which, just like the solar PV panels, will help you save money and reduce your carbon footprint. Joule stock a complete range of solar thermal systems such as solar electricity and solar photovoltaics.

Solar thermal systems are suitable for every type of installation. From our high-efficiency Acapella evacuated tube collector solar system to our Navitas 2.0m in-roof solar panel systems and on-roof solar panel systems.
