Efficient Heating and Cooling for Your Home
Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs) are innovative devices that provide both heating and cooling for your home using the outside air as their main energy source. These systems work by transferring heat from the outdoor air to inside your home during winter, and reversing the process in summer to cool your living spaces.
Air Source Heat Pumps are an excellent choice for homeowners looking to improve their energy efficiency, reduce their carbon footprint, and enjoy year-round comfort. Our expert team is ready to help you explore if an ASHP is the right solution for your home.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do air source heat pumps work?
Air source heat pumps work by extracting heat from the outside air and transferring it inside your home. Even in cold weather, there’s still heat energy in the air. The heat pump uses refrigerant to absorb this heat and compress it, raising its temperature. This heated refrigerant then passes through a heat exchanger, warming air or water for your home’s heating system. In summer, the process reverses, moving heat from inside your home to the outside, effectively cooling your space.
Can air source heat pumps work in cold climates?
Yes, modern air source heat pumps can work efficiently in cold climates. While their efficiency decreases as outdoor temperatures drop, many new models can operate effectively at temperatures as low as -15°F (-26°C) or even lower. In extremely cold regions, a backup heating system might be recommended for the coldest days, but ASHPs can still provide substantial energy savings throughout the year.
How much can I save on energy bills with an air source heat pump?
The amount you can save depends on various factors, including your current heating system, local climate, and energy prices. However, many homeowners report savings of 30-50% on their heating costs after switching to an air source heat pump. The savings are typically highest when replacing electric resistance, oil, or propane heating systems.
What maintenance does an air source heat pump require?
Air source heat pumps generally require minimal maintenance. Here are some key maintenance tasks:
- Clean or replace air filters every 1-3 months
- Keep the outdoor unit clear of debris, leaves, and snow
- Have a professional inspection and tune-up once a year
- Clean the indoor vents and ductwork as needed
Regular maintenance helps ensure optimal performance and longevity of your system.
Are there any government incentives for installing an air source heat pump?
Yes, there are government incentives available in the United Kingdom for installing air source heat pumps:
- Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS): This scheme offers grants of £7,500 towards the cost and installation of air source heat pumps in England and Wales. It’s available for homeowners, small landlords, and private landlords.
- VAT Reduction: From April 2022 to April 2027, VAT has been reduced from 5% to 0% on energy-saving materials, including air source heat pumps.
- Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI): While this scheme closed to new applicants in March 2022, those already enrolled continue to receive payments.
- Energy Company Obligation (ECO): Some households may be eligible for support under this scheme, particularly those in fuel poverty or vulnerable situations.
- Local Council Grants: Some local councils offer additional grants or schemes to support the installation of energy-efficient heating systems.
It’s always best to check the latest information on the government’s official websites as incentives and schemes can change over time.
