AIR SOURCE HEAT PUMPS
Rather than burning fuels like traditional heating systems, Heat Pumps transfer thermal energy from the air outside into your home, to provide hot water and heating via your radiators.
They are powered by electricity and transfer heat using refrigerant to provide comfort all year round, efficient in temperatures as low as -20°C.
Heat pumps do not actually generate heat – instead they move heat from one place to another. As heat pumps do not burn fossil fuels like furnaces do, they are a greener choice for those looking to be more environmentally friendly.
ASHPs require very little maintenance, with the average heat pump having a life span of over 25 years. You can expect all-year-round operation from this technology due to the internal defrost cycle inside the system.

- Up to 400% efficient
- Provides heating and hot water for the whole property
