Heat Pumps

Cutting Energy Costs With Environmentally Friendly Solutions

As the drive towards decarbonisation and environmentally friendly solutions to heating and cooling accelerate, Johnson Controls is at the forefront of the technological revolution to design, manufacture, install, and service ultra-energy efficient HVAC products such as water and air source heating pumps.

Our innovative solutions help customers transition to more sustainable energy use, reduce environmental impact, and improve overall building efficiency. Our comprehensive range of water and air source heat pumps provides renewable heating and cooling solutions that are ideal for a variety of applications. These systems are not only designed to reduce energy bills but also to significantly lower carbon emissions, aligning with green building standards and environmental targets. Whether you’re retrofitting an existing building or planning a new development, our products offer flexibility and performance you can rely on.

The air source heat pump, in particular, is an excellent option for commercial settings due to its ease of installation, minimal space requirements, and ability to operate efficiently even in colder climates. Mounted externally, these systems absorb heat from the air and transfer it indoors, offering year-round comfort with reduced reliance on fossil fuels.

For larger or more complex projects, our commercial heat pump solutions deliver scalable, energy-efficient performance across a range of commercial and industrial environments. These systems are engineered for high performance, ensuring optimal comfort and operational savings over the long term.

By integrating water or air source heating into your HVAC system, you’re choosing a forward-thinking approach that supports sustainability, reduces operational costs, and enhances the value of your property. Trust Johnson Controls to deliver cutting-edge, eco-conscious solutions for all your commercial heating and cooling needs.

How does a Heat Pump work?

A heat pump extracts heat from the outside air, or local water sources, even at low temperatures, and converts it into energy that you can use within your building's heating or cooling system.

This low-cost, low-impact energy can maintain indoor temperatures at ideal conditions, provide hot water, and help your business meet its decarbonisation goals.

Different Types of Heat Pump

Johnson Controls offer a range of heat pump solutions, each designed to suit specific applications. The different types of heat pumps available include:

Commercial Air Source Heat Pumps

Commercial air source heat pumps (ASHPs) efficiently heat and cool large buildings by extracting heat from the outdoor air using an evaporator coil. The heat is then amplified through compression before being released indoors, creating a comfortable environment. ASHPs are a cost-effective and eco-friendly solution for commercial heating and cooling needs.

Commercial Water Source Heat Pumps

Our water source heat pumps work by extracting heat from local water sources such as lakes or wells, even at low temperatures. This heat is and converted into energy that can be used within your building’s heating or cooling system. This low-cost, low-impact energy can maintain indoor temperatures, provide hot water, and help you meet decarbonisation goals.

Water source heat pumps are only a viable source of energy if your business premises are near a useable water source, so while they’re an excellent choice, they won’t be suitable for all applications.

Please note that we do not currently install heat pumps for small domestic buildings.

Reclaiming Waste Hot Air from Chillers

A by-product of chilling air for internal building cooling is waste heat that is often vented  into the atmosphere.

Air source heat pumps can harness this waste hot air as an energy source and can effectively use this air to power other elements of the HVAC system such as hot water.

This solution can offer significant increases in system efficiency and therefore reduced energy consumption.

What are the key benefits of using a Heat Pump from Johnson Controls?

Low Energy Usage
Up to 70% of the energy used by a Heat Pump is extracted from the outside air, thereby significantly reducing the usage of increasingly expensive electricity from the national grid.
Efficient Heating
When compared to traditional fossil-fuel fired boilers, Heat Pumps can be up to 500% more efficient, which can radically reduce energy costs.
Reduced Carbon Footprint
As the majority of the energy used to generate heat through a Heat Pump is renewable, installing Heat Pumps can make a significant contribution to decarbonisation targets.
Friendly to the Local Environment
Because Heat Pumps do not burn oil, gas, LPG or biomass, or generate fumes of any kind, the air quality in the local area will not be affected in any way. This can be of great importance when installing into buildings such as schools.
