Frequently Asked Questions
An Air Source Heat Pump (ASHP) is a type of heating system that works a bit like a fridge in reverse; it extracts useful heat present in the outside air to provide warmth for your home or business. It works by extracting the natural heat energy present in the air, to water which heats your rooms via radiators or underfloor heating. They can also heat water stored in a hot water cylinder for hot water.
All heating products make some level of noise and heat pumps are usually quieter than fuel boilers. The Mitsubishi Ultra Quiet Ecodan heat pump range has a sound level of just 45decibels, making them quieter than some refrigerators.
The cost to install a heat pump will vary depending on the size of the system, the brand you choose and how many you will need. Our highly experienced team can undertake a comprehensive heat loss survey to determine the energy efficiency of you home.
Installing an air source heat pump means making changes to your existing heating system. A detailed heat loss survey is necessary to ensure that we’re designing a system that is as efficient as possible for your property therefore, each quote is bespoke to your property. We realise that many clients are busy and we can offer online surveys or meet you at your property for peace of mind.
It usually doesn’t take longer than 2 hours to survey a building, but this will vary on the size of your property. We can offer an online survey if you are able to provide us with enough information. During a survey we will need:
Detailed measurements of each room: Our surveyors undertake a heat loss assessment in each room. We will measure each room and perform heat loss calculation based on details such as level of insulation, window, radiators, and doors.
Heat Pump Placement: We will determine where you can place your air source heat pump on the outside of your property. It must have some space around it to allow a good flow of air.
Hot Water Cylinder Placement: Our surveyor can assess your existing heating system to ascertain a location for your new cylinder. The new heat pump cylinder will be installed instead of your existing cylinder or combination boiler. We will recommend where the new cylinder will be installed and how much it will cost.
System design – Using the heat loss survey or technical design team will utilise this data to design a bespoke air source heat pump system to ensure it is able to heat your property as efficiently as possible. In some cases, you may to upgrade old radiators to improve efficiency. ASHPs sometimes require larger surface area radiators but this isn’t always the case and it may not be needed in each room. Each property is unique and our technical design will highlight what your property needs.
It is recommended that heat pump isn’t located near a bedroom window, opening doors. It is usually considered permitted development, so it’s not necessary to apply for planning permission. If you live in a listed building or a conservation area, you’ll need to get consent from your local planning authority prior to the installation.
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers £5,000 towards the cost and installation of your new air source heat pump until 2025. Learn more by visiting our Boiler Upgrade Scheme page.
