Design and manufacture of heat pumps for easy installation

Copper piping in the Kensa workshop, used in the manufacturing of ground source heat pumps. Truro, Cornwall
Richard Freeborn
Kensa Engineering, designs, manufactures, and tests heat pump systems for installation throughout the UK. Most are small-scale ground-source heat pumps (up to 32 kW), which are supplied in kit form so that they can be installed by non-specialist plumbers and builders. Larger and specialist systems are also supplied. To date over 1,000 systems with a total capacity of over 16 MW have been sold, providing about 26 GWh/year of heat and saving 3,600 tonnes/year CO2.
