Heat pump
The biggest saving on heating in the house, and the thing you'll worry about least. Part of the energy subscription, together with solar panels and a battery.
Three units of heat for every unit of power
A heat pump doesn't make heat. It moves it, from the air or the ground outside the house into yours. You get out roughly three times the heat you put in as power, so it heats for a fraction of what direct electric heating costs. Even when it's cold. You don't need to know more than that, that's our job.
A warm house and a bill that doesn't swing
22 degrees in January costs the same as 22 in July. No spot-price roulette, no reason to ration the heat. How much you save depends on your house, and we work that out when we look at the whole.
In real cold it draws more, and anyone who says otherwise is selling something
When it gets properly cold the pump works harder and leans on a backup, so its efficiency dips right when you need it most. That's true of every heat pump, and we won't pretend otherwise. We size for a Swedish winter and your house, not for a sales sheet. You get a warm house at minus fifteen. You just don't get to see it on the bill.
We choose the pump. Your house decides which.
Ground source or air-to-water isn't a matter of taste. The plot, the bedrock, the house's heating system and how much heat it leaks decide what pays off. Our energy analysis runs the numbers on your house and lands on the pump that gives the most heat per krona. You skip the spec sheets, and if the choice turns out wrong, that's on us, not you.
What does a heat pump cost with us?
No price list. The pump has no price of its own here, it's part of the monthly fee for the whole subscription, together with the solar panels, the battery, the installation and the service. The fee comes out of the energy analysis and then stays fixed for 15 years, adjusted once a year with CPI. Buying an equivalent pump yourself is one of the bigger investments a house can ask for, before it has delivered a single degree. With us, the upfront cost is zero.
Ours and yours
The pump, the installation, the service, the monitoring and the power it draws for heating and hot water: ours. The thermostat and 22 degrees indoors: yours. If something breaks, that's our cost, not yours. You own none of the hardware, and that's exactly what lets the price stay fixed.

Common questionsAbout the heat pump
Barely. We place the outdoor unit so neither you nor your neighbour notices it. Most people forget it's there.
Then it's our problem, not yours. We own it, so service, repair and replacement are included for 15 years, at no extra cost.
Yes, all of it. You can't pick a single part with us. It's heat pump, solar panels and battery together that make the economics work and keep your price low.
