Use an air source heat pump to convert air into hot water and central heating for your home

Air source heat pumps

How an Air source heat pump works…

An air source heat pump is an environmentally-friendly alternative to central heating. An outdoor unit harvests heat from the air outside and transfers it to an indoor unit, where it’s used to generate hot water. This can then be used to heat the house, domestic hot water, radiators or under-floor heating. Your indoor unit will much work the same way as your conventional central heating boiler, however it uses heat from the air outside, rather than gas.

The benefits of an Air source heat pump…

Heats your home and your water
Reduces energy costs
Minimal maintenance
Lower carbon emissions
Less disruptive to install than ground source heat pumps
Heat and cool your conservatory – meaning you can use it 365 days a year

An air source heat pump works a bit like your fridge, only in reverse. The process absorbs heat from the outside air and the heat pump compressor then increases the temperature to create useful heat. This solution pays for itself after the first few years and is a great investment in your home.
