Golf Club GSHP Install

Whittington Heath Golf Club have developed a new purpose built club house and function facility built by J Tomlinson of Nottingham and mechanical contractor ARC M & E from Derby. The ground array is a horizontal system which was positioned underneath the new golf driving range area using a full cut and cover approach with a flow and return from the loop to the building plant room on the first floor plant area. The ground array consists of 15 loops 100 m in length.

The system was running during COVID to maintain the building internal environment and has performed exactly as design expectations and in fact with a higher ground array temperature than design increasing the heating efficiency of the system. The heat pump consists of a Mastertherm heat pump that provides heating and cooling a slave unit to provide heating only using a sliding header arrangement and a chilled water and low temperature hot water buffer.
