Synergy Boreholes and Systems Ltd. is a privately owned borehole drilling / GSHP installation company.

Why you should consider using Synergy

  1. If you are installing a small domestic ground source heat pump (up to 10kW) with boreholes, the cost of the outdoor boreholes and pipework will be greater than the cost of your indoor heat pump installation.
  2. If you are installing a larger ground source heat pump (20-40kW) with boreholes, the cost of the boreholes is likely to be several, (2-3) times that of the heat pump.
  3. 99% of heat pump installation companies contract out borehole drilling to companies like ours.
  4. Most heat pump installation companies add their own substantial profit margin on to the drilling cost, this they charge to you. Some heat pump salesmen will also "underestimate" the size of the necessary borehole array in order to make a heat pump sale.
  5. It is becoming increasingly apparent that many heat pump installations are working inefficiently, i.e. not saving money, because they have been wrongly, i.e. inadequately, dimensioned. Synergy now offers a service to audit and check GSHP/Borehole systems which may be underperforming click here. See also News: Energy Saving Trust report
  6. Synergy cooperates with established, MCS accredited GSHP installers across southern England.
  7. Synergy will drill the boreholes, provide all headerworks, sanitise, flush and fill the system ready for simple connection of the heatpump.
  8. We are exact about what we do for you. Our quote will list exactly what our service covers and does not cover.

You can save money, short term and long term, by coming directly to us

We drill and equip geothermal boreholes to a high standard at fixed prices.

Our sole aim is to provide you with a cost effective, quality installation. We will take charge and responsibility for your complete GSHP / Borehole package. You will deal only with us.

  • We will advise you on how to pick the best heat pump for your needs
  • We will enlist the help of a reputable thermo-geologist to conduct a geological survey and dimension the borehole array (larger installations, i.e. >20kW)
  • We will engage the services of one of our trusted installation partners
  • We will drill your boreholes and provide all the groundworks/manifold etc fill the system with thermal fluid, ready to simply connect to the heat pump.

Therefore each of the above critical steps in the installation of your heat pump is executed by the person best qualified for the job.

Synergy offers a range of services relating to GSHP's and geothermal borehole drilling.

  • Commissioning of your geological site survey and, as required, professional borehole array design and modelling, recommendation of the most suitable GSHP for your project. TRT and evaluation.
  • Borehole drilling and insertion/testing/grouting of the geothermal loop
  • As above, but with the groundworks, i.e. electrofusion welded connecting pipework, manifold and manifold chamber, system filling with thermall liquid, ready for connection to the GSHP (Ground Source Heat Pump)
  • The above complete borehole and ground works, together with the supply and installation of the Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) by fully accredited engineers. We offer GSHP packages from a range of quality manufacturers, i.e. complete system installation

We guarantee our installations for longer than any other UK contractor.

Should you wish to find out more about GSHP's, or have any questions, please visit our FAQ's page.

If you wish us to estimate the necessary GSHP size, number of boreholes required and the cost for the installation of the complete system, please use our Estimation Form

We will quote for your heat pump installation together with your specified number and depth of geothermal boreholes usually within 48 hours of enquiry, subject to a geological survey.

Our prices are fixed and inclusive. See what our price includes here

No extra costs, unless agreed beforehand,

i.e. A fixed price per borehole metre, for a defined service.

What we charge depends on the number of borehole metres required. The more borehole metres per site, the cheaper the per metre cost.

Our advanced recycling technology reduces mess and time on site.

We fit piping connections, chambers, manifolds etc. to link the boreholes to the heat pump (GSHP). We use electrofusion welded pipe joints and if desired, high quality pipe insulation. On larger projects we use prefabricated, fully tested modular manifold chambers.

We guarantee our geothermal loop installations with site testing and individual loop pressure/flow test certificates.

We can provide Carbon Footprint Reduction packages in modular form to increase the energy efficiency of planned or existing buildings, either on an individual or multiple basis.

Who we work with

Our GSHP partners.

Manufacturers of high quality ground source heat pumps

Specifications of typical models


VAT

Professionally installed renewable technologies, e.g. geothermal drilling and GSHP with boreholes for residential properties, qualify for a VAT rate of 5%. (Conditions to be observed)


Before you make any decision, please remember,

A GSHP Package is a long term investment. To justify itself, the running / maintenance / repair costs must be minimal.

Choosing the cheapest supplier may reduce initial outlay, but cost a lot more, over the lifetime of your installation.


Larger properties can benefit from an energy saving audit.
