Wood-burning stove and heat pump - a clever heating combination

If you opt for a heat pump for your heating system, you are relying on renewable energies and using free ambient heat from the air, water and earth.

The electricity-powered air heat pump draws heat from the outside air and converts it into heating energy. If the temperature difference between the outside air and the desired heating temperature is too great, the heat pump requires more electricity and is less efficient. The air heat pump reaches its limits, especially in severe frost, when the temperature difference and heating requirement are at their greatest. In such cases, an electric heating element is switched on as additional heating, but this also causes electricity costs to rise in height.

However, if the heat pump is combined with a modern stove, the high electricity costs can be greatly reduced in such situations. In the warm months of the year, the heat pump takes over the supply, while in the cold months the wood-burning stove relieves the heating system and thus increases efficiency.

Weather conditions will change in the future and become more extreme. Hot summers, cold winters with sub-zero temperatures and severe weather. A modern heating combination, such as the heat pump with stove, gives you independence for the future - especially in the event of power cuts.

And not to forget: A beautiful blazing fire in a fireplace adds cosiness and comfort to any home!
