Join us in the GSHPA
The GSHP Association is the focal point for business interests in the ground source heat pump industry.
The purpose of the Association is
- to provide benefits to members
- to share best practice and develop and disseminate industry approved technical standards, training criteria and codes of practice
- to promote the highest standards of integrity, professionalism and technical competence within the ground source energy industry
- to represent the ground source heating & cooling industry, promoting sustainable use of the technology and engaging with government and other bodies to influence relevant policymaking.
All members must sign up to the Code of Ethical Practice which is backed up by a disciplinary procedure. Members must agree to abide by the GSHPA Standards published by the GSHPA.
Members are promoted as the best choice for ground source heat services and it is hoped they will enjoy, not only a financial gain in joining, but a sense of co-operation with others involved in the implementation of solutions to global warming and resource depletion and help to raise installation standards across the ground source industry.
