Air Source Heat Pumps
These heat pumps extract heat from the outdoor air and transfer it into a building to provide heating. They are efficient and environmentally friendly, making them a popular choice for both residential and commercial applications.
Hybrid Heat Pumps
Hybrid heat pumps combine the technology of an air source heat pump with another heat source, such as a traditional gas boiler or electric heater. This versatility allows the system to adapt to varying conditions and optimise energy usage, making it an excellent option for properties with fluctuating heating needs.
Daikin Heat Pumps
Daikin is a globally recognised brand known for its innovative and reliable heat pump solutions. Daikin heat pumps are designed for efficiency and comfort, offering quiet operation, advanced technology, and exceptional performance in heating and cooling applications.
Vaillant Heat Pumps
Vaillant is another reputable brand with a long history of producing high-quality heating and cooling systems. Vaillant heat pumps are known for their energy efficiency, durability, and smart features, providing reliable and sustainable heating solutions for residential and commercial properties.
Government Funding for Heat Pumps
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme is a government incentive that will assist with the upfront cost of upgrading your heating system with one of our air to water and ground source heat pumps.
In addition, there is now no VAT on heat pumps – reducing the cost even further.
What grants are available?
Your installer will apply for the grant on your behalf. You can receive:
£7,500 towards a ground source heat pump
£7,500 towards a ground source heat pump (including water source heat pumps and those on shared ground loops)
£5,000 towards a biomass boiler

Frequently Asked Questions
What Is A Heat Pump?
A heat pump is a device that moves heat from one location to another using a relatively small amount of energy. It operates by extracting heat from a source, such as air, water, or the ground, and transferring it to another location, typically for the purpose of heating or cooling spaces. Heat pumps can be used for both residential and commercial applications, providing efficient heating in winter and cooling in summer by reversing the direction of the heat transfer process.
How Do Heat Pumps Work?
Heat pumps work by utilising the principles of thermodynamics to transfer heat from a low-temperature source to a higher-temperature sink. They accomplish this through a refrigeration cycle, which involves four main components: an evaporator, a compressor, a condenser, and an expansion valve.
Air Source Heat Pumps:
Air source heat pumps extract heat from the ambient air outside a building and transfer it indoors for heating purposes. The process begins with the evaporator coil, which absorbs heat from the outdoor air and converts the refrigerant inside it into a low-pressure gas. The compressor then compresses this gas, raising its temperature and pressure. Next, the hot, high-pressure gas flows through the condenser coil located indoors, where it releases heat to warm up the indoor space. Finally, the refrigerant returns to its liquid state as it passes through the expansion valve and completes the cycle by returning to the evaporator to absorb more heat from the outdoor air.
Hybrid Heat Pumps:
Hybrid heat pumps combine the technology of an air source heat pump with another heat source, such as a traditional gas boiler or electric heater. This allows the system to switch between different heat sources depending on factors like outdoor temperature and energy prices, optimising efficiency and performance. Hybrid heat pumps typically operate in one of two modes: electric-only mode, where the heat pump operates independently, or hybrid mode, where the system intelligently switches between the heat pump and the auxiliary heat source to achieve the most cost-effective heating solution.
Are Heat Pumps Better Than Gas Boilers?
Heat pumps are generally considered more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly compared to gas boilers. They can provide heating and cooling, are powered by electricity, and have lower carbon emissions. However, their suitability depends on factors like upfront costs, property size, and regional energy prices.
Heat pump benefits vs gas boiler:
- Lower fuel bills
- Long unit life span & warranty
- Lower carbon emissions
- Funding frequently available
