Worry less about keeping warm
Moving away from traditional boilers to modern heat pumps isn’t just about embracing cutting-edge technology—it’s about making a positive impact on the planet while worrying less about staying warm.
Air source heat pumps transfer heat from the outside air and use that heat for your heating and water. Unlike oil or gas, you’re not relying on fossil fuels, meaning you can reduce your carbon footprint and live a more sustainable lifestyle.
With year-round comfort and energy efficiency 300% greater than conventional heating methods, it’s no surprise UK homeowners are switching to an air source heat pump.
Join us this Heat Pump Week, to learn more about air source heat pumps and how they’re changing the future.

Frequently asked questions
How much do air source heat pumps cost to install and operate?
Taking into account the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS grant), a complete heat pump system, matched perfectly to your requirements as part of our bespoke system design service and fully installed, can cost as little as £5,500-£7,000 for the average 3-bed family home.

How efficient are air source heat pumps?
Air source heat pumps are one of the most efficient heating systems for your home. Generating three times the amount of heat for every kw of energy used. Heat pumps are sustainable, low carbon and help you save energy.
Do you need new radiators for air source heat pumps?
The performance of your heat pump system hinges on the compatibility and efficiency of your radiators.
Larger radiators with convectors are generally the best choice.
Careful evaluation and measurement of your existing radiators will ensure that your heating system operates at its best, providing comfort and energy efficiency.
How loud is an air source heat pump?
If you’re concerned about how loud an air source heat pump is, you might be surprised to instead find out how quiet they are. Like any machine in operation, heat pumps do produce noise – but how much noise they produce is remarkably low, especially with newer ASHP models designed with a focus on low-noise operation.
The noise is so low, in fact, that it’s about the same as a whisper, the gentle hush of a library, or the sound of a breeze through leaves.
But if you’re curious to learn how a heat pump produces noise and how much noise it produces, read on.
