The introduction of the ‘Future Homes Standard’ means that all gas boilers will be banned in all new build and self-build homes from 2025 and all new homes must have low-carbon heating systems such as an air source heat pump.
Why choose an air source heat pump for your next project?
- Energy efficient: Heat pumps work by absorbing energy from the air outside and converting it to heat both your home and hot water making them highly energy efficient.
- Save money: Because they are up to 300% more efficient than traditional heating systems, homeowners can take advantage of lower energy bills and increase the value of their home in the future.
- Renewable energy: Heat pumps are considered a renewable energy source and are a sustainable alternative to fossil fuel-based heating systems.
- Low carbon footprint: Heat pumps produce fewer carbon emissions compared to traditional heating systems reducing the carbon footprint of properties.
Here at CB Heating, we can work entirely from the plans but if you are working on a renovation, we would need to carry out a technical assessment. Talk to us today about your plans.

Air source heat pumps and extensions
If an extension is being added, there may be separate challenges.
We will look at how the heat pump fits in with the existing house design. If the extension has underfloor heating, the remainder of the house may simply need some new, efficient, and appropriately sizes radiators.
It is possible to mix and match between rooms or floors depending on what the most efficient heating arrangement is for your project.
For more information on our air source heat pump solutions for your extension, get in touch today.
