The best thing about heat pumps is that you don’t need a lot of electricity to run them. That means your monthly bills are lower, and your carbon footprint is greatly reduced. These appliances can have a 200 to 600% efficiency rate because the heat produced is more than the energy used. Advances in recent years have transformed the market and air source heat pumps are now a viable alternative to fossil fuels.

What is an Air Source Heat Pump?

Air source heat pumps work by absorbing natural warmth from the outside air via liquid refrigerant. The refrigerant gas is compressed and  transferred to be used to heat your home and water – it’s a great low-carbon way of heating your home.

Even in the UK,  heat can still be extracted when air temperatures are low. An air-source pump is highly efficient even though it needs electricity to run.  It typically uses less electrical energy than the heat it produces, making it a greener equivalent to traditional boiler heating systems.

These are the key things to consider:

  • Your property must be well insulated to help the efficiency of your air source heat pump.
  •  Some outside space is required for the air source heat pump unit to be fitted to an exterior wall. There must be enough space around the air source heat pump to allow a good flow of air.
  •  In most cases, an air source heat pump won’t require planning permission, however, it is best to check with your local planning authority first.
