AIR SOURCE HEAT PUMPS

WHAT IS A HEAT PUMP?

An air source heat pump is a renewable heating system that uses electricity to extract heat from the outside air and convert it into warmth and hot water for your home.

More energy efficient than traditional heating systems, heat pumps are ideal if you are upgrading your home or building from scratch and want to lower both your carbon footprint and energy bills. They provide a reliable, long-term heating solution with sustainability at their core.

Suitable for a wide range of property types and locations, heat pumps offer a cost-effective and environmentally friendly way to keep your home comfortable all year round.

HEAT PUMPS VS BOILERS

  • Cheaper to run – every 1kWh of electricity can produce 3–4kWh of heat.
  • Lower carbon emissions – far cleaner than traditional fuels.
  • Durable and reliable – long lifespan when maintained.
  • Energy savings – especially in well-insulated homes.
  • Hybrid systems available – combine with a boiler for maximum flexibility.

COMPATIBLE WITH RENEWABLES

  • Solar PV panels – generate your own power for the heat pump.
  • Solar thermal – free hot water direct from the sun.
  • Smart hot water cylinders (e.g. Mixergy) – intelligent energy storage.
  • Underfloor heating – ideal match for air source heat pumps.
  • Home insulation upgrades – maximise efficiency and lower bills.

HEAT PUMPS VS BOILER

HOW DO HEAT PUMPS WORK

Compared to traditional gas or oil boilers, air source heat pumps run at much lower temperatures but for longer periods, delivering steady, consistent warmth rather than short bursts of heat. This makes them particularly well suited to well insulated homes and low temperature heating systems such as underfloor heating or larger radiators.

Boilers burn fuel to create heat, while air source heat pumps move existing heat, making them far more energy efficient in the right conditions. For every unit of electricity used, a heat pump can produce several units of heat, which can reduce running costs and carbon emissions. However, boilers still tend to be cheaper to install and may be better suited to older properties without insulation upgrades.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

WHY MAKE THE SWITCH?

Switching from a gas boiler to a heat pump brings clear environmental and long-term cost benefits for homeowners.

Heat pumps use renewable energy from the air to deliver heating and hot water with high efficiency, helping to cut carbon emissions and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. As energy prices continue to rise, they can also lower running costs, especially in well-insulated homes.

Government incentives, such as the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, can help reduce the upfront cost, making the switch more accessible. Choosing a heat pump means investing in a future-ready, low-carbon heating solution that supports the UK’s move towards greener energy, while improving comfort and efficiency at home.

An air source heat pump extracts heat from the outside air, even at low temperatures, and transfers it into your home to provide heating and hot water. It operates much like a refrigerator in reverse, using a refrigerant cycle to absorb and release heat, making it a highly efficient heating option.

Yes, air source heat pumps are designed to operate effectively even in cold climates, down to -15°C. They are highly efficient in the UK climate, providing a reliable heating solution throughout the year, especially in well-insulated homes.

Benefits include lower carbon emissions, reduced energy bills, and decreased reliance on fossil fuels. Heat pumps are also eligible for government incentives, which can help reduce installation costs, making them an attractive choice for eco-conscious homeowners.

Air source heat pumps can reach efficiency levels of 300-400%, meaning they produce three to four times more energy than they consume. This high efficiency results in lower energy bills and a smaller carbon footprint compared to traditional gas or oil boilers.
