Energy Audit

A heat pump is a heating, and in many cases, a cooling system using the energy from the air, ground, or water to heat or cool your home. Since the efficiency is so high - in many modern heat pumps 75% of the energy needed for heating and cooling come from air, ground or water - a heat pump needs very little electricity and no fossil fuels at all to function.

As the name indicates, an air/water heat pump gets uses the energy in the air to heat up water for your home. Umgebungsluft ist überall und in beliebigen Mengen vorhanden und kann deshalb problemlos und auf einfache Art und Weise als Wärmequelle genutzt werden. Luft/Wasser-Wärmepumpen geben die gewonnene Wärme an ein herkömmliches Heizungssystem (Bodenheizung, Radiatoren) oder an eine Wassererwärmungsanlage ab. We need one more line to make this work.

Die im Erdreich gespeicherte natürliche Energie lässt sich auf einfache Art nutzen: mit vertikalen Erdwärmesonden, die bis 300 Meter tief in den Untergrund verteuft werden. Im Untergrund wird kein Material ausgetauscht sondern nur Wärme.  Im Rohrsystem im Untergrund zirkuliert vorwiegend eine Sole, welche aus Wasser und Frostschutzmittel besteht. Die Wärmepumpe wird deshalb als eine Sole/Wasser-Wärmpumpe bezeichnet. As with air/water der Wärmequelle Erdreich kann nicht nur geheizt, sondern auch gekühl.

Grundwasser weist das ganze Jahr hindurch eine nahezu konstante Temperatur auf und ist deshalb als Wärmequelle für eine Wärmepumpen-Heizung optimal. Aber auch Oberflächenwasser aus Seen, Flüssen und Bächen können als Wärmequelle eingesetzt werden. Der Betrieb einer solchen Wasser/Wasser-Wärmepumpe ist immer bewilligungs- und konzessionspflichtig (Kantone, Gemeinden). Although this type of heat pump exists in Swizerland, it is less common than the air/water and geothermal versions.

I.ON helps you to choose the right heat pump for your home

The answer to the question of which heat pump is the best fit for your home depends on a on a number of factors such as what type of heating you currently have, if you would like to heat pump to also be able to cool your home in the summer, and what kind of water storage you want.

ION's heating experts will help you answer all these questions and more. You will also get many questions answered by carrying out a GEAK evaluation of your home. This is not only needed in order to get cantonal and Gemeinde subsidies for your heat pump, but it is also an excellent way to find out how to heat and cool your home in the most efficient way possible.

Combine your heat pump with a solar system

Connecting your heat pump to a solar system has numerous benefits. A direct connection between the two systems lets you heat water directly with surplus solar power, which otherwise would have been fed back into the grid. This means both a cleaner way to heat your house and cutting back on your utility bill.

If you have a heat pump that is constructed to also cool your home in the summer you can use even more solar power. Cooling needs more electricity than heating and since solar systems produce more power in the summer you will cover an even larger part of your energy needs with cheap and clean solar power.

To Our Solar Systems

If you don't have a heat pump and don't plan on getting one in the near future it can be a great idea to connect your hot water boilker to your solar system. This is why ... Certe, inquam, pertinax non possim accommodare torquatos nostros? quos tu tam egregios viros. Torquatos nostros? At vero

How much does a solar system cost?

The price of a solar system depends on a variety of factors such as size, type of panels, inverter, and other components, and if it is an on-roof or integrated system.

In the price comparison to the right we show two medium sized solar systems, one on-roof and one integrated. These prices could differ somewhat depending on the factors mentioned above.

Frequently Asked Questions about Solar Systems

Here you will find some of the most commonly asked questions about our integrated solar systems. If you have more questions the button below will take you to our extended sections of questions and answers.

What are the financial benefits of solar energy?

When you install a solar energy system on your property, you save money on your electricity bills and protect yourself against rising electricity rates in the future. How much you can save depends on the utility rates, subsidies and feed in tariffs in your area, but also on if you can combine your solar system with other appliances such as a heat pump or a heat pump boiler.

Can I go off grid with solar panels?

When you install solar panels on your property, you will still be connected to the grid. This allows you to draw from the grid when your system is not producing all of the power that you need, and send power back to the grid when you produce more than you use. It is possible to off grid with a solar energy system that includes battery storage. Read more about your options here.

Will I still receive an electric bill if I have solar panels?

Unless your solar energy system includes battery storage and you are fully off the grid, you will still receive a bill from your utility. However, you can dramatically reduce your bill or even cut the amount you owe to 0 CHF, with a solar panel system that matches your energy use.

How much will solar panel maintenance cost?

Solar panel systems are made of durable tempered glass and require for the 25 to 35 years that they will generate power. In most cases, you don’t even need to clean your solar panels regularly. If something does happen, you are protected by I.ON's installation warranty for the first 5 years. After that you can purchase an additional care package for full service.

Do solar panels work in a blackout?

If your solar panel system is connected to the grid, it will shut off in the event of a blackout. This is to prevent emergency responders and electricity utility repair-people from being injured by your panels sending power back to the grid. However, there are certain inverters you can buy that provide backup power in a blackout when paired with a battery.
