Why GSHP

Ground source pumps represent the most efficient renewable heating and cooling technology. They can be networked to offer multiple dwellings access to a green, efficient and secure year-round energy source: all the while being a discrete energy source as the hardware is largely hidden underground. Onsen Energy offers a turnkey GSHP installation service - from borehole assessment and drilling to headerworks and plant room installation. 

What we do

Site Preparation & Drilling

Following the on-site assessment and safety review, we’ll get to work setting up the drilling rig and putting any safety measures in place. We follow the borehole design to drill to the required depths, spacing and number of boreholes.  If the geology creates challenges with reaching target depths, we’re brilliant problem solvers and work closely with system designers to accommodate the geology we find on site. 

Loop Installation, Grouting & Headerworks

Our service also includes loop installation and grouting. Once the drilling is complete, we’ll install the ground source heat extraction loop and ensure grouting is correctly filled into the hole as per GSHPA standards. Finally, we'll install the pipes that connect the heat pump to the borehole loops - often called the headerworks.

Heat Pump Installation

Whether you already have a designated area to use as a plant room or you plan to extend your property, we can install the heat pump and associated equipment. We guarantee a seamless and timely transition through each stage of your installation, ready for your heating engineer to decommission your existing system and switch to your new greener energy supply.

Waste management and site clean-up

We work with our clients to best manage the waste clearance, as each project can require a different approach. Our ambition is to leave the site in a clean and tidy condition.

Delivering on GSHP Projects all across the UK

Commercial or Residential

We’ve used our expertise to deliver borehole drilling and GSHP installation to the highest standards in various project types.

Commercial Borehole and GSHP expertise

Our commercial drilling teams work at scale to deliver large-scale borehole arrays at varying depths for larger projects. This can often mean drilling in city centre locations, as well as more rural areas. In large commercial or large residential projects it’s always worth considering a ‘thermal response test’ to verify and gather in-situ measurements on the thermal response of a test borehole.
