HOW IT WORKS

How an air source heat pump heats your home

The outdoor unit draws heat out of the air, even on cold days.


Raises the temperature
A compressor boosts that heat to a useful temperature.


Heats your home and water
Warmth flows to your radiators or underfloor heating and your hot water cylinder.

Types of Heat Pumps

Air Source vs. Ground Source

Heat pumps come in two main types: Air Source and Ground Source. Both heat your home efficiently but work in different ways.

Heat Pump Installation

Air source heat pumps

These extract energy from the air outside your home. They are easy to install and suitable for most properties, offering efficient heating even in colder climates.

Ground source heat pumps

These extract energy from the ground through a series of pipes buried in your garden. These systems are highly efficient and can provide consistent heating year-round but require more space and a more complex installation process.

Generally, planning permission is not required for air source heat pump installations as they are considered permitted developments. However, check with your local planning authority for any specific restrictions.

A heat pump improves home efficiency by extracting energy from the outside air and converting it into heating and hot water. This reduces reliance on traditional heating systems, lowering energy bills and carbon footprint.

An air-source heat pump is suitable for most homes, especially those with sufficient outdoor space for the unit. It works best in well-insulated homes to maximise efficiency.

Installation typically takes 3 to 5 days, depending on the complexity of the system and any additional work required, such as upgrading radiators or insulation.

Signs that your heat pump system may need repair or upgrading include reduced efficiency, unusual noises, increased energy bills, or frequent system errors. Regular maintenance checks can help identify and address these issues promptly.
