Dimplex brine-to-water heat pumps draw up to 80% of the required heating energy from the ground. The solar energy stored in the ground is available free of charge and in unlimited abundance. To be able to extract geothermal energy from the ground and use it for heating purposes on a continuous basis, ground collectors in the form of flexible PE pipes are buried in the garden at a depth of around 1.2 m. A mixture of water and antifreeze, the so-called brine, is circulated in the pipe loops.Where not enough area for laying the pipes is available or if cooling is to be provided in addition, ground coils are installed in vertical direction.'
