Why Everyone Will Soon Have a Heat Pump (And So Will You)

🌍 Chapter 1: Why Everyone Will Soon Have a Heat Pump (And So Will You)

The world is changing. Rapidly. Where we were once massively dependent on natural gas, coal, and oil, we are now seeing a huge shift towards sustainability and independence from fossil fuels.
The heat pump is central to this.

The energy transition isn't something in the distant future. It's happening now – in your street, your neighborhood, your municipality.
And it's not a fad or a temporary policy. It's a structural, global shift.

Why everyone will soon have a heat pump:

Gas is being phased out rapidly → from 2050 every home must be natural gas-free
Energy prices are erratic → heat pumps are independent and more cost-effective in the long term
Climate targets are being tightened → heat pumps reduce your CO₂ emissions by up to 60–70%
Subsidies are attractive → you can sometimes get up to €3,750 back from the government
New-build homes no longer have a gas connection → heat pump = standard

In short: sooner or later the transition will come.
But early is better – financially, technically and practically.
At New-Heating we help you make the leap smart and prepared.

🔍 Chapter 2: What is a Heat Pump (Really)?

You hear it everywhere: “buy a heat pump”.
But what exactly is that? And how does it work?

A heat pump is a device that moves heat .
Just as a refrigerator pumps heat from inside to outside, a heat pump extracts heat from the air, ground or water and brings it inside – to heat your home or your tap water.

Key difference:

Instead of generating heat through combustion (as with a central heating boiler), a heat pump moves existing energy.
Result: you use less energy and you emit less CO₂.

Types of heat pumps:

Air-to-water heat pump (most popular, outdoor unit that converts air into hot central heating water)
Hybrid heat pump (works with your central heating boiler – useful for older homes)
All-electric heat pump (100% electric, no more gas required)
Ground or water/water heat pump (more complex, often for new construction or utility buildings)

At New-Heating we focus on air-to-water heat pumps and hybrid systems , because of their wide applicability and favorable price/performance ratio.

🏡 Chapter 3: The New Standard for Every Home

A heat pump is not just an alternative – it is the new standard .
Where you used to automatically choose a central heating boiler, the heat pump is now the standard recommendation in:

New-build homes
Renovation projects
Gas-free neighborhoods
Subsidy advice from municipalities

Why?

Because the technology has matured.
The models we supply at New-Heating are:

Extremely quiet (from 32 dB)
Can be intelligently linked to underfloor heating, radiators and hot water
Equipped with inverter technology (efficiency + comfort)
Future-proof with natural refrigerants such as R290

Whether you live in a terraced house or a detached villa, we can configure a suitable solution for every home.

📈 Chapter 4: The 5 Biggest Misconceptions About Heat Pumps

“My home is not suitable.”
Wrong. Almost any home is suitable, provided it's measured correctly and any necessary adjustments are made.
“Heat pumps are noisy.”
Not true. The latest models (such as those from New-Heating) are quieter than a refrigerator.
“I need underfloor heating.”
No, it works just as well with special low-temperature radiators.
“It's super expensive.”
That used to be the case. With subsidies and higher energy prices, it's actually more cost-effective in the long run.
“It doesn't work in winter.”
Nonsense. Modern air-to-water heat pumps operate down to -20°C – without any problems.

Conclusion:

The technology is further along than you think.
Don't let outdated assumptions hold you back.

🔋 Chapter 5: How Much Energy Do You (Really) Save?

At New-Heating we calculate it for you.

Couple:

You now consume 1,800 m³ of gas per year
You pay €1.20 per m³ = €2,160 per year

After installation of an air-to-water heat pump:

Your gas consumption drops to approximately 200 m³ (cooking and backup only)
Your electricity consumption will increase by approximately 2,500 kWh
Electricity price: €0.30 per kWh → €750 per year
Total energy costs: €990

✅ Your savings: over €1,170 per year

📉 You will earn back the system in 6 years – and everything after that is pure profit.
🔋 With solar panels your savings will be even greater.

⚙️ Chapter 6: How Does a Heat Pump Technically Work?

Although the operation of a heat pump is based on a fairly simple principle – moving heat –
behind the scenes there is an ingenious system that is perfectly tuned for efficiency.

Main components of an air-to-water heat pump:

Evaporator: outside air is drawn in here and energy (heat) is extracted
Compressor: compresses the refrigerant, causing it to heat up
Condenser: transfers the heat to the home's heating system (central heating water)
Expansion valve: lowers the pressure of the refrigerant so that it can absorb heat again

Central player: the refrigerant (such as R290), which flows continuously through this circuit.
Modern systems use inverter compressors that do not switch on/off, but provide infinitely variable control .
This means: more comfort, less noise and lower operating costs .

🏘️ Chapter 8: Is Your Home Suitable? – The Heat Pump Checklist

Are you wondering whether your home is suitable for a heat pump?
This checklist from New-Heating will quickly give you clarity:

✅ Does your home have sufficient insulation (roof/walls/floor)?
✅ Is there room for an outdoor unit (garden, flat roof, facade)?
✅ Do you have radiators or underfloor heating that operate at a low temperature?
✅ Do you want to be less dependent on gas?
✅ Do you have solar panels or are you considering them?
✅ Is there room for an indoor unit and/or buffer tank?

If not? No worries: we'll help you find smart solutions.
Consider a silent setup, hybrid design or gradual transition via a heat pump boiler.

🔀 Chapter 9: Hybrid or All-Electric – Which is Right for You?

Hybrid heat pump:

Works with your existing boiler
Suitable for less well insulated homes
Lower investment, faster installation
Smart switching between gas and electricity for maximum savings

All-Electric heat pump:

Completely replaces your central heating boiler
No more gas needed (gas-free living)
Requires good insulation and low-temperature heating
Higher subsidy + lower monthly costs in the long term

New-Heating advice:
We always calculate both options for you, including consumption simulation.
This way you not only choose what is technically possible, but above all: what is smart for you .
