Comfortably warm:
The TERRA heat pumps heat large areas through various floor or wall heating systems. Rooms are kept comfortably warm at all times, using low
temperature heat exchange in large surfaces.
Natural and clean:
These modern heat pumps work on site without emissions. No soot, no smoke, no wood dust can impair the air. If the heat pump is
operated using environmentally friendly energy (e.g. hydrogen,
photovoltaics), the process of energy acquisition is entirely
emissions-free and CO2-neutral.
In this way, we can contribute to a greener planet and natural resources
will still be available for us to use in the future.
Extreme savings:
Heat and energy from nature are available to you free of charge –
a benefit that really pays off:
4 x environmental energy + 1 x electrical energy = 5 x heat energy |

A low temperature glycol- water mix circulates through the ground probes up to 100 metres deep. Constant ground temperatures around 19°C ensure enough geothermal heat, no matter what time of the day, no matter what season. The heat is absorbed by the glycol- water mix and transported back to the TERRA heat pump unit, which then stores this heat energy in the HYGIENIK buffer tank. |

Heat source water |
|
|
|
| |
 |
|
Ground water is pumped from a well via a submersible pump. Heat is extracted and the cooled water returns back to the ground via a discharge well.
Because of its constant temperature, ground water is an ideal source of heat throughout the year and enables the TERRA heat pump to run under highest possible efficiency.
|
|
| |
For a heating capacity of 10kW, approximately 1800 litres per hour of ground water is pumped. |

A glycol- water mix is circulated through an external air heat exchanger. The air cools down by several degrees, giving off its heat to the glycol mix.
The glycol mix in turn transports the heat to the TERRA heat pump, situated inside the building.
The heat pump absorbs and elevates it to a higher temperature and stores it into the HYGIENIK buffer tank. |

Ground Source Heat Pump - Terra |
|
| The Terra heat pump from IDM extracts free energy from the soil, ground water or air and delivers heating and hot water to the building. During summer the cycle
is reversed, extracting heat from the house and giving it back to the environment. |

Tips |
| |
| For the garden |
| The area of ground used can be planted without difficulty and
the plants can grow undisturbed. |
|
| |
| For planning your home |
| The Terra heat pump is quiet, takes up little space and requires an indoor location to be installed together with its tank, pumps, valves and control equipment. |
|
| |
| For heating |
The lower the flow pipe temperature, the higher the efficiency of the heat pump. Both floor and wall heating systems are suitable as the flow temperature is low.
When restoring older buildings, it is possible to use heating radiators suitable for low temperature heating. |
|
| |
| For gaining local authority approval |
| The operation of geothermal energy equipment needs the approval of
the local authorities. This should be sought before construction begins. |
