Air source heat pump installation.
If you’re curious about air source heat pump installation, you’re in the right place. We’re here to share everything you need to know about this amazing technology, from the benefits to the process. Let's break it down.
ASHPs are like the cool kids of home heating. They take warmth from the outside air (yes, even when it's chilly) and use it to keep your house toasty. Think of it like a refrigerator in reverse – super efficient and way greener than your old gas boiler. Let’s dive in!
Our air source heat pump installation process.
We like to keep things simple, so here's how it works:
Get an indicative price online: Start by getting a heat pump quote on our website to get a rough idea of the costs involved. It’s quick, easy, and helps you see if it’s within your budget.
Book a call with a heating expert: If you’re still interested, book a call with one of our friendly heating experts. They’ll chat with you about your home’s suitability for an air source heat pump. They’ll ask you questions like ‘Do you have enough space outside for the unit’? And ‘Is there room for a hot water cylinder?’
Onsite survey: If your home looks like a good fit and you’re keen to move forward, we’ll arrange an onsite survey. Our expert will gather all the necessary details to prepare an accurate quote.
Receive your quote: After the survey, our heating expert will head back to the office and prepare your quote. We’ll send it over to you, so you can review it at your leisure.
Installation and demonstration: Once you’re happy with the quote and ready to go, we’ll schedule the heat pump installation. Our professional team will install the system and give you a full demonstration on how it works.

Is a heat pump right for me?
Heat pumps are compatible with most homes and heating systems, but there are a few things to consider. We'll assess your specific needs during the consultation to ensure a heat pump is the best fit.
What is MCS?
MCS stands for Microgeneration Certification Scheme. It's a quality assurance scheme that ensures heat pump installations meet high standards of performance and safety.

In some cases, you might need a new hot water cylinder. And while most radiators work fine with heat pumps, some older models might need upgrading as the pipework needed tends to be wider than what we used years ago. We'll advise you on the best options for your home during the consultation.
