What is the ZUM Heat Pump List?
The choice of heat pumps is really big. There are air heat pumps or ground heat pumps . Each of them can work fully efficiently. However, you have to be aware that using a heat pump, you have to decide on an investment such as photovoltaics.
According to European law, in the future every house will be obliged to replace the old installation. However, buying a heat pump seems very expensive. Fortunately, the National Environmental Protection Fund has prepared a subsidy program. Of course, the financing is not 100% and certain conditions must be met. The ZUM list is a list of green devices and materials.
This is a list of various types of devices that qualify for subsidies under both government and EU initiatives. The Zoom list includes heat pumps, of course. This list is a help for applicants for the Clean Air program. When choosing a heat pump, you should check whether it is on this list, as this is a necessary condition for receiving a specific amount of subsidy.
What tests are required for heat pumps?
A heat pump is a really good solution. Regardless of whether you choose ground heat pumps or air heat pumps Monoblock , you must remember that they should be made of strong and reliable materials. At the same time, the heat pump installation must be performed by a professional company.
The heat produced by the pump can be used not only to heat the house, but also to prepare domestic hot water. However, many people are afraid that the electricity bills will be very high. In such a case, thermal modernization is recommended, which also includes replacing devices with those that consume very small amounts of energy. The use of photovoltaics is also necessary.
Of course, there are subsidies available and you can take advantage of programs that subsidize the purchase of devices. The heat pump market is really big, but you need to choose a model with modern technology. A heat pump should be used to heat your home, but also to heat utility water. It is best to choose accredited heat pumps that comply with the PN-EN 14825 standard.
Such tests allow for determining the energy class of devices. The energy efficiency of heat pumps is defined by the COP coefficient. This is the ratio of obtained thermal energy to the input electrical energy, which occurs under specific operating conditions of the system. The value of this coefficient is determined based on laboratory tests. If you want utility water to be heated, your heat pump must meet the PN-EN 16147 standard.
Which heat pumps can be subsidized in 2024?
If you are considering replacing your heat source, you can take advantage of the subsidy system. Of course, each program has a different amount. You also have to meet certain conditions. A heat pump for buildings or private homes is an excellent safeguard against problems with access to, for example, coal or a rapid increase in gas prices. Heat pumps are available in many variants, but not all of them can be subsidized. It is worth remembering that up to PLN 7,000 can be obtained for an air-to-air heat pump. The same amount can be obtained by investing in an air-to-water heat pump. The subsidy will be higher when investing in a ground heat pump and will then amount to PLN 21,000. Therefore, as you can see, the amount depends on the type of heat pump.
What changes await in the Clean Air 2024 program?
The popularity of the Clean Air program is really big. Depending on the type of pump, you can receive specific subsidies. In practice, this means that the largest subsidies will be given to people investing in ground heat pumps.
Compared to the others, the amount is three times higher. The heat pump installation must be carried out correctly, because only then will the device operate effectively. At the same time, changes have been made to the Clean Air 2024 program, which are strongly related to funding.
First of all, you should choose a heat pump from the list of Green Devices and Materials, i.e. from the ZUM list. It is also necessary to conduct an energy audit. Thanks to the investment in a heat pump and photovoltaics, electricity bills can be significantly reduced and despite the change in regulations, such investments are still very beneficial.
Where and how to apply for Clean Air funding?
Submitting an application is not difficult or time-consuming. All you need to do is log in using login.gov.pl, then create and fill out an application for funding from the Clean Air program. You should check if there are no errors in the application. All that remains is to attach attachments in the form of scans and documents and send them. You can also go to the Provincial Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management, then download the documents, fill them out and submit them.
