Air Source Heat Pumps

For sustainable, cosy homes

Is your home struggling to stay warm? Are you worried about rising energy bills and your carbon footprint? An Air Source Heat Pump is an innovative heating solution that takes heat from the outside air and transfers it into your home, providing warmth and hot water.

It’s a highly efficient, future-proof alternative to traditional gas boilers, designed to keep your home comfortable while significantly reducing your environmental impact.

The Benefits

Switching to an Air Source Heat Pump from a traditional gas boiler offers a range of powerful benefits for your home and finances.


  • Lower Energy Bills: Heat pumps can be 300–400% efficient, producing 3–4 times more heat than the electricity they use.


  • Government Grants Available: You may be eligible for a government grant of £7,500 to help with the installation costs.


  • Reduced Carbon Emissions: Heat pumps can cut home CO₂ emissions by up to 2,000 kg per year compared with a gas boiler.


  • Year-Round Comfort: Provides consistent, reliable heating and hot water, ensuring your home is comfortable in all seasons.


  • High Satisfaction Rates: A study by Nesta found that 80% of families who switched from gas boilers to heat pumps were happy with their new system.

Air Source Heat Pump explained

These pumps take heat from the air and transfer it to your water and radiators.

The hot water then goes around the house to heat taps and radiators.

Air source heat pumps are great for most homes

What will the kit look like in your home?

The pipes and other equipment for your heat pump will live inside your house. A typical internal heat pump set up can fit into a space that is 1m wide x 1m long x 2m high.This is about the size of an under stairs cupboard or small cupboard. Some people put it in their garages or loft spaces and some people create a small cupboard in an existing room for it.
 
The size of the internal set up can vary depending on the size and configuration of your house and the manufacturer of the heat pump.

How It Fits in Your Home

Air source heat pumps are a great fit for most homes, new or old. The system consists of two main parts:

  • The Outdoor Unit: A compact unit, slightly larger than an air conditioning unit. It typically sits on the ground or is attached to an exterior wall.

  • The Indoor Unit: The indoor components and pipes can fit into a space about 1m x 1m x 2m—roughly the size of an under-stairs cupboard. They can be fitted in a garage, loft, or an existing cupboard.

Our experts can help you determine the best placement for an air source heat pump in your specific property.
