Air Source Heat Pumps: Smarter & Greener

Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs) offer a highly efficient, low-carbon alternative to traditional heating systems. By extracting heat from the air—even in cold weather—they provide reliable space heating and hot water for residential and commercial properties alike.

An ASHP absorbs thermal energy from the outside air and uses an electric-powered compressor to raise its temperature. This heat is then transferred into your heating system, supplying:

• Warm water for radiators or underfloor heating
• Hot water for taps, showers, and baths
• Stable performance throughout the year

The Benefits of Air Source Heat Pumps

Energy Efficiency

• Converts 1kW of electricity into up to 3kW of heat
• Ideal for homes built to modern insulation standards

Environmentally Friendly

• Significantly reduces carbon emissions
• Helps meet future net-zero and building regulation targets

Financial Savings

• Lower long-term running costs compared to oil or gas
• Eligible for government incentives like the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme
• Heat pumps are VAT-exempt, reducing upfront costs for residential homes

Low Maintenance

• Annual checks and occasional cleaning of filters
• External units need to be kept clear of debris
• Fewer moving parts than a boiler = fewer breakdowns
