How Air Source Heat Pumps Can Transform Your Home’s Energy Efficiency

Revolutionise the way you heat your home by installing an air source heat pump. It’s the perfect solution for many homes that are trying to upgrade with efficient and sustainable solutions. It’s also more cost effective in the long run and better for the environment. You’re probably wondering how it works, which is why we’re here to help you to understand if it’s the right solution for your needs.

How Air Source Heat Pumps Work

By harnessing heat from ambient outdoor air, air source heat pumps can effectively convert it into energy that heats your home and water. The method is similar to how fridges work but instead creates a warming effect. It even works in freezing temperatures up to -20, making it a reliable solution during the British winter. Some models can also be used in reverse, where they cool your home in the summer using the opposite method.

Key Benefits of Air Source Heat Pumps

Energy Efficiency

This heating method stands out because of how energy-efficient it is. It can lower your heating bills and reduce your carbon footprint, especially if it’s replacing a traditional electric, LPG or oil system.

Lower Carbon Emissions

Modern solutions are increasingly taking the environment into account, and air source heat pumps are a great example of how technology can increase efficiency and decrease the need to replace oil and fossil fuels. The ASHP model uses heat that’s already obtainable in the atmosphere, so no fuel, oil or gas needed.

Simple control and smooth installation process with Homely

We have tried to keep a simple 1>2>3 design and boiler upgrade grant application process. Discover more about our heating assessments here.

We conduct a full heating demand survey, talk about design and running costs and send a simple quote. We deal with the £7500.00 voucher for you and redeem when necessary.

Making a heat pump user friendly has been the challenge in the past. Customers played with room thermostats and even turned it off at night. This goes against the grain of an efficient installation and comfort levels. We have now made this process smoother and can give you efficient, slow & steady heating, using an open loop design and the Homely controller. At handover the customer is given a simple mobile app. On this you set the room temperature and some timings. That’s it! Leave Homely to control and modulate the heat pump for heating and hot water. Get better efficiency and make use of variable electricity tariffs or other renewable now or later. Meanwhile you just relax knowing the Homely controller and heat pump are working in harmony to maximise efficiency. We can also dial into the node and give advice efficiencies and act swiftly on any problems or fault codes if they arise.
