How do air source heat pumps work?
Have you ever wondered how you can keep your house warm in winter and cool in summer without breaking the bank?
Air source heat pumps efficiently harness outdoor air, transforming low-grade heat into a valuable energy resource. Our systems elevate the temperature of the captured heat before utilising it for both space heating and hot water supply. Even when its freezing outside our heat pumps maintain operational efficacy in external temperatures as low as -20°C.
You can discover whether your property is an ideal candidate for air source heat pump installation by undertaking a heat loss assessment. The insulation level of your home and the type of heating system currently in place significantly influence potential annual savings.
Our friendly team offer insights into the operational costs associated with air source heat pumps across various home ages, types, and the dimensions of units needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Air Source Heat Pumps
What are the pros of using an Air Source Heat Pump?
A smaller internal space is needed for an ASHP. While external space remains necessary, opting for this solution could be advantageous if interior space is limited. No groundwork or external collector pipework is needed, making an ASHP potentially more cost-effective than a Ground Source Heat Pump.
It serves as a budget-friendly option for home heating, and with access to government grants, it can become even more economical. Additionally, an ASHP boasts an impressive lifespan and can be utilised for both heating and cooling your home—an efficient use of natural energy to power your living space.
What are the cons of using an Air Source Heat Pump?
To ensure optimal functioning of an ASHP, it’s essential to have a well-insulated home in advance. This includes features such as underfloor heating or adequately insulated loft spaces and walls. It’s worth noting that there may be a slight noise associated with the operation of an ASHP.
How long will it take for my Air Source Heat Pump to be installed?
Installing the ASHP is significantly more straightforward compared to the Ground Source Heat Pump, as it doesn’t necessitate any excavation. This makes the installation process notably simpler and often faster than that of the GSHP.
What are the types of properties an ASHP is and isn't suitable for?
Initially, it’s imperative for your home to possess effective insulation. ASHPs generally provide a lower heat supply compared to boilers, making a well-insulated home particularly conducive to their efficiency.
Smaller properties are well-suited for this pump, though provision for the external unit is necessary. In larger properties, multiple external units can be installed, but this choice will inevitably impact the overall costs involved.
Comparison of traditional heating methods
In contrast to a gas or electric heating system, an ASHP presents a renewable option for warming your home. This not only reduces your carbon footprint but also provides an opportunity to economise on your utility expenses.
What are the estimated costs associated with the installation of air source heat pumps?
The costs associated with installing air source heat pumps (ASHPs) in the UK can vary based on several factors, including the size of the system, the level of insulation in your home, and the specific requirements of the installation.
Installation Cost: The installation cost for an ASHP typically starts at £6,000. This cost includes the price of the heat pump unit. However, labour costs will vary as will the cost of any additional materials needed.
Running Costs: ASHPs are generally considered more energy-efficient than traditional heating systems, which can lead to lower running costs over time. The actual savings will depend on factors such as the efficiency of the system, the size of your home, and local energy prices.
Additional Costs: Depending on your home’s requirements, there may be additional costs for improvements such as insulation upgrades or radiator replacements to optimise the efficiency of the ASHP.
