Installation
Can a heat pump be retrofitted?
Yes, heat pumps can also be integrated into existing buildings retrospectively.
This requires professional planning that takes into account the existing heating technology.
Do I need a permit for the installation?
Air source heat pumps usually do not require a permit.
Ground source heat pumps generally require official permission for drilling.
WATERKOTTE will assist you with all the formalities together with specialist partners and installers.
How is a WATERKOTTE heat pump installed?
Installation takes place in several steps: planning, preparation, assembly and commissioning.
WATERKOTTE specialist partners and the WATERKOTTE factory customer service team take care of all the work and ensure that the system is optimally configured.
How long does it take to install a heat pump?
Depending on the system, installation takes between a few days and several weeks, especially for geothermal heat pumps with boreholes.
The actual installation inside the house is usually completed in a short time.
What earthworks are necessary for a geothermal heat pump?
Geothermal heat pumps draw environmental energy from geothermal probes or surface collectors.
This requires drilling or earthworks, which must be professionally planned and carried out.
The right system for you depends, among other things, on the space available and geological conditions.
The WATERKOTTE team, together with specialist tradesmen, will support you in all the necessary steps with decades of experience and expertise.
Who will take care of planning and installation?
A regional WATERKOTTE employee will be happy to assist you with the decision-making process and the start of planning. The final planning and installation will be carried out in collaboration with the installation company, which will ultimately implement the heat pump, including all necessary environmental measures.
We will accompany the project from consultation to commissioning and will be available to you at any time as your personal contact.
