A system which transfers 2.25 times as much heat as the electricity consumed is said to have an SPF of 2.25. A well designed ground source heat pump installation should achieve an SPF of 3.5, or over 5 if linked to a solar-assisted thermal bank. [6] Example: For a heat pump delivering 120,000,000 BTU during the season, when consuming 15,000 kWh ...
For example, consider a 5000 BTU/h (1465-watt cooling capacity) air-conditioning unit, with a SEER of 10 BTU/(W·h), operating for a total of 1000 hours during an annual cooling season (e.g., 8 hours per day for 125 days). The annual total cooling output would be: 5000 BTU/h × 8 h/day × 125 days/year = 5,000,000 BTU/year
With an area of 100 m 2, the heat energy being lost is 0.25 W/(K⋅m 2) × 18 °C × 100 m 2 = 450 W. There will be other losses through the floor, windows, ventilation slots, etc. But for that material alone, 450 W is going out, and can be replaced with a 450 W heater inside, to maintain the inside temperature.
Well-insulated floors: 0.2 W/(m 2 ⋅K) Poorly insulated floors: 1.0 W/(m 2 ⋅K) In practice the thermal transmittance is strongly affected by the quality of workmanship and if insulation is fitted poorly, the thermal transmittance can be considerably higher than if insulation is fitted well [ 3 ]
