As specialists in borehole drilling and geothermal technology, Nicholls Boreholes is extremely experienced in drilling boreholes for GSHP (Ground Source Heat Pumps) for businesses and private properties. As approved suppliers for the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) we can also help our clients to access funding and take care of paperwork relating to the RHI (Renewable Heat Incentive).
We are virtually unique among borehole companies in using our own staff to undertake every aspect of the service from site survey to completion. We visit and assess the area for the proposed Ground Source Heat Pump borehole and obtain a geological report to ascertain ground conditions for the heat pump borehole. With our own staff and equipment we then drill the borehole, installing all the necessary components and ground loops ready for the connection and installation of the heat pump and commissioning.
We are happy to drill for other ground source heat pump installers.
They have virtually no environmental impact and reduced CO2 emissions.
Unlike many companies, we provide a complete, end to end service using our own in house staff. We will visit and assess the area for the
proposed borehole and obtain a geological report to ascertain ground conditions for your heat pump borehole. With our own staff and equipment we will drill the borehole, install all the necessary components and ground loops ready for connection and installation of the heat pump and commissioning.
