Installation of Kensa heat pumps is a relatively simple process, as Kensa heat pump systems are specifically designed to be installed without specialist training. Any competent contractor and heating engineer should be capable of completing a standard installation.

That said for installers new to heat pumps Kensa's can offer further product training. Held at the Truro manufacturing facility, a 20 acre former Cornish tin mine site.The Kensa training course offers a complete overview of Kensa's heat pump systems, with expert advice for heat pump applications and hands on installation sessions. The day costs only £100.00 per person - fully refundable against your first heat pump order. If you would like to find out more about our Installer Training Workshops, click here. Whilst you may benefit enormously from our training workshops, it is not essential that you take part in a workshop before installing a unit.

With regards to the ground arrays, for every kilowatt of heat pump output approximately 10 metres of slinky is required. The standard Kensa slinky lengths are 30 metre, 40 metre & 50 metre. If supplied with building & site drawings we can advise the number and length of slinkies required and also whether sufficient land is available.

The Slinky Ground arrays are normally buried in trenches 1.2 metres wide and 1.2m deep and need to be spaced 5 metres apart.

I recommend you watch the Kensa movie demonstrating how to install your slinky ground arrays - its only 2 minutes long but explains a lot! Click here to watch it now!

If land is not available then a drilled solution (ie Boreholes) will need to be considered. Kensa can help to put you in touch with specialist drilling contractors if that is a requirement of the project.

The company provides industry-leading and pre-sale and post-sale technical support. Kensa can advise on integration with UFH, radiators, domestic hot water and integration with other renewable technologies. Advice is also given on ground arrays, heating controls, running costs, budget pricing and system performance (COP).

The Technical support team are based in the UK and offer expert advice drawing on a wealth of experience in both domestic and commercial applications. A Kensa engineer will also facilitate the commissioning process, which for domestic applications is an interactive process, conducted over-the-phone with the installer on-site.

In order to meet EU-imposed targets, the Government must encourage a dramatic upturn in the use of renewable technologies. To support this endeavour, the recently launched Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) will offers a substantial and on-going financial reward for those homeowners installing technologies including Kensa ground source heat pumps, manufactured here in Cornwall.
