Homes being built by CG Fry & Son at Welborne Garden Village, north of Fareham, will use NIBE ground source heat pumps connected to the development’s shared ground loop ambient heat network.
The system uses a shared ground loop to distribute low-grade heat around the development, with a NIBE ground source heat pump in each property providing space heating and hot water. The units can also provide cooling during warmer weather.
The arrangement forms part of the infrastructure for the new homes at Welborne, a planned residential community designed around a shared energy network. Rather than each property having its own ground loop, the homes will draw energy from the communal system.
Paul Smith, MD of NIBE, says: “CG Fry & Son has built its reputation on craftsmanship, quality and creating homes that stand the test of time. What makes this partnership so exciting is the opportunity to combine that heritage with heating technology designed for the future, helping homeowners enjoy comfort, efficiency and confidence for years to come.”
The collaboration marks a further step in NIBE’s growing role at Welborne Garden Village, supporting multiple housebuilders in delivering connected, future-ready homes built around long-term sustainability, comfort and performance.
