What are Air Source heat Pumps?
Heat pumps are electrically powered appliances consisting of a compressor and two carefully matched heat exchangers. They are designed to provide space heating through water systems, either radiators or underfloor, by extracting from a free, renewable energy source - the air.

The air will absorb and store heat from the sun, then It is possible to extract considerable heat from ambient temperatures as low as -20°C. Air Source heat pumps have major advantages over its rival the ground source heat pump. Our air system is easily installed to either new build or retro properties as there is no need for any tIme consuming or expensive excavations. All the compressor requires is siting in a sufficient outside air flow.

Heat pumps are a very cost effective means of providing space heating and pre-heating domestic hot water. The high efficiency of the units means that the output heat energy can be up to four times the electrical input power, something not possible with other methods of heating.
