Hybrid, full-electric, monoblock or split? discover the best heat pump for you

25 October 2024 verdasole

You have decided to heat your home more sustainably with a heat pump—a smart choice that can significantly save on energy costs. Now comes the next step: Which heat pump best suits your situation? Do you choose a hybrid system, a monoblock, split system or do you even opt for a full-electric heat pump? Here we explain the different options.

First of all: how does a heat pump work? In the core, a heat pump extracts heat from the outdoor air and converts it into energy for your home. This process is very efficient and can lead to a significant reduction in your heating costs. Below we discuss three options: hybrid, full-electric and the differences between monoblock and split systems.

The hybrid heat pump

A hybrid heat pump works together with your existing central heating boiler. This type of heat pump largely provides the heating, while the central heating boiler stands out on cold days or for hot water. This makes it an easy and cost-effective choice for those who want to save energy without major home adjustments.

Full-electric heat pump

A full-electric heat pump, such as the LG Thermo V, runs completely independently and does not need a central heating boiler. This system can provide both heating and hot water and is a complete solution for those who want to live gasless. Full-electric systems are more efficient and better for the environment, but require good insulation of your home and can have higher installation costs. The transition to a full electric system can in many cases be accompanied by subsidies, which provides a nice incentive.

Monoblock or split heat pump?

Now the choice is between monoblock and split. One monoblock heat pump is an all-in-one unit that is placed outside and leads heat from the air directly to your heating system. This installation is often a little simpler and more robust. The split heat pump, which consists of an indoor and outdoor unit. Here heat is transported through pipes to the inner unit, which then spreads it into your home. This system is useful if you have limited outdoor space, although the installation may be slightly more complex due to the special coolant connection.

Which system suits you?

Hybrid, full-electric, monoblock or split—Every system has unique advantages. Do you want a tailor-made advice or are you wondering what's needed for your situation? The Verdasol experts are ready to help you with a sustainable choice that fits your living situation and energy goals.

Air conditioning: Smart investment, earned back in 6-7 years!

14 August 2024 verdasole

Air conditioning and heat pump: Payback time of 6-7 years makes it a smart investment

With the rise of the summer sun, the interest in air conditioning also increases. Data from Google Trends shows that during warm periods, such as the last week of June, Dutch people often seek information about cooling their homes.

Expert installation by Verdasol

The demand for air conditioning has been rising for some time. A trend that clearly began during the corona period, when many worked at home. "People sought refreshment for their attic rooms, which were hot in summer and freezing in winter. An air conditioner turned out to be the ideal solution," explains a Verdasol specialist. An air conditioning with two internal units, which allows you to heat and cool two rooms, costs on average €2600, including installation by our internal experts.

Air conditioning versus Heat pump

Although an air conditioner is excellent for specifically cooling and heating certain rooms, the heat pump remains a very efficient choice for heating the entire house. However, for those who want to tackle only a few spaces, an air conditioner offers a more cost-efficient solution. With an air conditioner you save significantly on energy compared to traditional central heating boilers.

Investment that recoupes quickly

An average household using an air conditioning instead of a central heating boiler can be used annually. €386 savings, including cooling costs. This leads to a payback period of about 6 to 7 years depending on current gas and electricity prices. For households with solar panels, the advantage is even greater because they can use their own generated power.

When choosing between a heat pump or air conditioning it is essential to consider the specific needs of your home. Both systems have their advantages, but the optimal choice depends on your heating and cooling needs.

Gas prices are unpredictable and often rise due to international events. A heat pump is a significant investment, but in the long term you save significantly on your energy costs. By switching now, you avoid future price fluctuations and ensure more financial stability.

2. Save money with power
Heat pumps consume electricity, but this is cheaper than gas in the long run. Do you have solar panels or are you considering them? Then you'll benefit even more by having your heat pump run mainly on solar energy. This will substantially print your energy bill.

3. Increase the value of your home
Investing in a heat pump increases the market value of your home. Sustainable homes attract buyers faster, sell faster and often get a higher selling price. A future-proof house is attractive to buyers who want to save on later adjustments.

4. Benefit from grants
Until 2026 you can still use attractive subsidies to purchase a heat pump. Don't wait too long, because the arrangements can change. By acting now, you are the crowd ahead and you assure yourself of the best deals.

5. Choose from an adult market
The technology of heat pumps is mature and reliable, and we consciously opt for top quality. That's why we work exclusively with LG heat pumps, a brand that has been leading this technology since 2004. LGs heat pumps are known for their high efficiency, compactness and quiet operation. They also use natural chillers that have minimal impact on global warming. With a wide range of models, we always find a solution that suits your specific needs. LGs reliability and our expertise ensure that your investment in a heat pump is carefree and sustainable.

This highlights not only the quality of the products we work with, but also our commitment to reliability and sustainability in our services.

6. Contribute to a better world
A heat pump uses renewable energy sources such as outdoor air or soil heat, which significantly reduces your CO2 emissions. This is not only good for the environment, but also largely makes you self-sufficient in energy.

Make the wise choice for yourself and the planet. Switch to a heat pump and enjoy the many benefits it offers. Contact our experts for personal advice and find out how to switch easily. Act now and prepare for a more sustainable future!

Over 13,000 low-cost loans for solar panels in 2023

20 March 2024 verdasole

In 2023, the National Heat Fund saw a remarkable increase in the financing of solar panel projects, with over 13,000 approved credits, doubling compared to the previous year. This trend is expected to continue in 2024, given growing demand. But what drives this question? And what are alternative financing options for solar panels in the Netherlands?

Why is interest in green financing for solar panels increasing?

It is clear that the number of green loans for solar panels is increasing: from around 7,000 in 2022 to 13,000 in 2023, with an average loan amount of €12,000.
This increase is mainly due to the fact that more people with a smaller budget want to make their homes more sustainable to save energy costs. "30% of homeowners cannot finance the sustainability of their home without a loan. We are increasingly focusing on this group," says Ernst-Jan Boers, chairman of the National Heat Fund.

A short explanation of the green financing

With the green funding of the National Heat Fund you can borrow money at low cost to make your home more sustainable, such as insulation, heat pumps, and mainly solar panels. In 2023, nearly 40% of the loans were for the financing of solar panels. Interested? Here are some important points:

Homeowners can €1,000 and €Twenty-seven thousand.
The interest rate is 0% for income below €60,000.
There is no age limit to close the loan.
You must be the owner-inhabitant of the house you want to sustain.
The installation of the solar panels shall be carried out by a certified installer such as Verdasol

Alternative financing possibilities for solar panels

In addition to green funding, other financial benefits are available for the purchase of solar panels. Some examples:

Settlement scheme: This allows you to return green electricity to the grid at a favorable rate.
VAT zero rate: When purchasing solar panels, you pay 0% VAT, both on labour and material costs. This also applies to VAT on home batteries, which means a 21% discount.
Municipal grants: Several municipalities and provinces also offer financial concessions. Ask your congregation about the possibilities.

For companies and non-profit organisations, specific grants are available, such as the SDE, EIA, VAMIL, and KIA, while the SCE grant focuses on local green energy initiatives.

Ask us as an approved installer for the best grants for your project and receive free advice!

Current prices for solar panels

Financial concessions have made solar panels an attractive investment. Prices have even fallen over the past year, thanks to factors such as:

Larger stocks in Europe since the pandemic, allowing wholesalers to buy cheaper.
Lower prices for raw materials such as polysilicon and wafers, due to increased production.
A less active market in recent years, which has led to lower prices.

For the exact price of your solar panels it is advisable to immediately no-binding offer To ask!

Maintain Settlement Scheme: What it means to you

13 February 2024 verdasole

The First Chamber recently decided to maintain the netting scheme for solar panels. This decision provides clarity and certainty for both current and future solar panel owners.

Impact on current and future solar panel owners

With the netting scheme intact, solar panel owners can continue to benefit from returning excess energy to the grid. This is not only good news for those who already have solar panels, but also for those who are considering investing in solar energy. Maintaining this scheme makes solar panels an attractive choice for a wider audience, including people with lower income and tenants.

Future of Solar Energy in the Netherlands

This decision confirms the commitment of the Netherlands to renewable energy and the energy transition. It stimulates the use of solar energy and supports financial feasibility for a large part of the population. With the scheme continued, the payback time of solar panels remains attractive, contributing to the growth of solar energy in the Netherlands.

Pros and cons of glass-glass solar panels

13 January 2024 verdasole

At Verdasol we offer a varied range of solar energy systems, including our advanced glass-glass solar panels. Each panel in our range meets strict quality standards, as required in the Netherlands, to ensure the highest reliability and efficiency.

Our solar panels always come with an essential quality mark, which ensures the absence of production errors over the years of use. This label also confirms the promised capability of each panel when purchasing.

Unique Features of Verdasol Glass Glass Solar Panels

Reduced Sensitivity for Microfractures: Our glass-glass panels are designed to be less prone to micro-fractures, which often occur with traditional glass-film solar panels. This is due to the double glass layer, which makes the panels up to 15% stronger.
Robust Design: Unlike the usual plastic back, our glass-glass panels have a sturdy glass back, which increases overall durability.
Duration and Reliability: Due to their robust design, our glass-glass solar panels have a longer lifespan, making them a sensible long-term investment.

How Microfractures Can Be

Production and Transport Process: Microfractures can occur during production and transport. Our glass-glass solar panels are designed to be more resistant to these risks.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Glass glass Solar panels

Sustainability vs. Costs: Although glass-glass solar panels are more durable and have a longer lifetime, they are often more expensive than the glass-film variant. This is a trade-off for consumers.
Bifacial Technology: This innovative technology allows the panels to absorb sunlight from both sides, increasing efficiency.
Quality variation: Not all glass-glass panels are superior; some glass-film panels are also excellent. We consistently choose the best quality: single Tier 1 panels

Robustness and Security

Weather resistance: Our glass-glass solar panels are particularly resistant to extreme weather conditions, extending their lifespan.
Fire safety: Compared to glass-foil panels, our glass-glass solar panels offer higher fire safety due to the non-combustible glass rear.

Personal Opinion

We recommend to contact our specialist consultants at Verdasol to gain a deeper insight into the specific benefits of our glass-glass solar panels and how they can optimise your investment.
