JBG HT 10K Heat Pump

The seemingly mysterious refrigerant R290 used in some heat pump models is nothing more than propane, commonly found in refrigerators and freezers. What sets it apart from other refrigerants is its low Global Warming Potential (GWP), which is only GWP=3 (compared to R410, a commonly used refrigerant in heat pumps, which has a GWP of 2088). Heat pumps using R290 are therefore a more environmentally friendly solution. JBG HT heat pumps utilize R290 refrigerant.

The answer is clear — absolutely yes. The key advantages of a heat pump include its energy efficiency, which translates into lower heating costs, as well as its reliability and low maintenance requirements (a heat pump does not require a boiler room). This means not only saving money but also valuable time. Additionally, from an environmental perspective, a heat pump does not produce harmful substances such as ash or smoke, making it an eco-friendly alternative to conventional heating systems.

Although still relatively new, heat pumps are gaining popularity as an effective heating source. User experience shows that even in our climate, a well-selected and properly configured heat pump performs efficiently and provides savings. However, to fully justify a heat pump installation (not just in our climate), the heating system in the building should be designed to operate at relatively low temperatures (27-35°C), and the building itself should have low heat demand.

It is difficult to determine definitively whether monocrystalline panels are better than polycrystalline ones. This depends more on the manufacturer and the quality of the product during production. If roof space is limited, monocrystalline panels might be the better choice. Additionally, even small amounts of shading negatively affect efficiency, making it necessary to position panels strategically. Many users also find black monocrystalline panels more aesthetically pleasing, which is an important factor for homeowners.

A heat pump is an independent device and does not require photovoltaics to function efficiently. While a heat pump is already one of the most cost-effective heating solutions, its benefits increase when integrated with a modern photovoltaic system. Modern heat pumps work seamlessly with photovoltaic and underfloor heating systems.

However, there is no obstacle to installing only a heat pump first and later adding photovoltaic panels.

Yes, but we recommend connecting a heat pump only if the building has good thermal insulation. This ensures the heat pump's efficiency and optimal heating performance.

The most efficient use of a heat pump is with water-based underfloor heating, where the water temperature averages 35°C and is evenly distributed across the entire floor surface, enhancing efficiency and comfort.

While the installation cost of a heat pump and the conversion to underfloor heating can be high, the investment pays off relatively quickly. However, the return on investment also depends on the building’s insulation, meaning whether heat is lost through walls or an unsealed roof.

Yes, the "Moje Ciepło" program offers financial support for purchasing and installing heat pumps in new single-family homes, specifically those where a construction completion notice or an occupancy permit application has not yet been submitted, or was submitted no earlier than January 1, 2021.

The latest information on heat pump subsidies can be found in the Knowledge Base - Grants and Funding section.

Under the "Mój Prąd 5.0" program, removing a coal furnace is not required. However, in the case of funding from the "Czyste Powietrze" program, replacing an old solid-fuel boiler with a new, eco-friendly heating source is mandatory to receive the grant.

For the "Czyste Powietrze" program, it takes approximately 30 days from the submission of a complete and correctly filled payment application with all required documents. The subsidy will be disbursed by the Provincial Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management in full or in up to three installments. The entire process may take around six months.

Renewable energy sources (RES), such as solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal energy, are becoming increasingly competitive with traditional energy sources like fossil fuels. Advances in technology and larger-scale production are reducing the costs of RES systems, making them a more cost-effective solution in the long run.

Investing in RES allows for energy independence from fluctuations in the fossil fuel and electricity markets.
