Air Source Heat Pumps

Looking for an efficient and eco-friendly way to heat your home?

Why Choose Us for Your Air Source Heat Pump Installation?

• MCS Compliant Installations: Our installations are fully compliant with the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS), making them eligible for the current Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS). This government-backed initiative provides £7,500 towards the cost of replacing your existing fossil fuel system, making your switch to greener energy more affordable.

What Does It Cost?

Switching from a fossil fuel heating system to an air source heat pump typically costs between £10,000 and £15,000, depending on the extent of upgrades needed for your existing system. With the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant of £7,500, your total investment could be as low as £2,500 to £7,500.

Understanding Running Costs

Air source heat pumps are incredibly efficient, operating at around 300-500% efficiency. This means that for every kilowatt of electricity used, you can get 3-5 kW of heat energy in return. Despite electricity being more expensive than gas, heat pumps can still offer lower running costs than traditional gas boilers, especially when replacing older gas, LPG, or oil systems. Even if you’re upgrading from a modern mains gas system, you can expect similar running costs with the added benefit of reducing your carbon footprint.
