Building heat pump. This pump is part of a building shared ownership scheme. Heat pumps take heat from the ground, air or water and use it to heat the inside of the building, or to heat water supplies. They act like a fridge in reverse. This is an air source heat pump from the ThermoSEME company. Photographed in 2012, in France.
