Heat Pumps
For sustainable, cosy homes
Heat pumps are a great home heating solution for homes in the UK. More and more people are enjoying the benefits of them and there was a 50% increase in homes using heat pumps from 2022 to 2023.
The government is now offering £7,500 to help pay for heat pump installation. You may be able to get this grant now.
Heat pumps are very efficient. They will keep you warm, save you money, all while supporting the environment.
A charity called Nesta found that 80% of families who switched from gas boilers to heat pumps are happy with their new system.
Most homes, new or old, will work well with heat pumps. This makes heat pumps a smart choice if you want to save money on bills, replace a broken boiler, or try an energy-efficient heating option.
Our advisers can help you find the right heat pump for your home and explain how to get it installed.
What do air source heat pumps look like and where will they fit in your house?
Part of the heat pump will live outside of your house. This part often looks like a slightly larger air conditioning unit that you might see on buildings when you go abroad. They typically sit on the ground and will often be attached to one of your exterior walls.
Switching to an Air Source Heat Pump from a traditional gas boiler offers a range of powerful benefits for your home and finances.
Lower Energy Bills: Heat pumps can be 300–400% efficient, producing 3–4 times more heat than the electricity they use.
Government Grants Available: You may be eligible for a government grant of £7,500 to help with the installation costs.
Reduced Carbon Emissions: Heat pumps can cut home CO₂ emissions by up to 2,000 kg per year compared with a gas boiler.
Year-Round Comfort: Provides consistent, reliable heating and hot water, ensuring your home is comfortable in all seasons.
High Satisfaction Rates: A study by Nesta found that 80% of families who switched from gas boilers to heat pumps were happy with their new system.

Air Source Heat Pump explained
These pumps take heat from the air and transfer it to your water and radiators.
The hot water then goes around the house to heat taps and radiators.

What do air source heat pumps look like and where will they fit in your house?

How It Fits in Your Home
Air source heat pumps are a great fit for most homes, new or old. The system consists of two main parts:
The Outdoor Unit: A compact unit, slightly larger than an air conditioning unit. It typically sits on the ground or is attached to an exterior wall.
The Indoor Unit: The indoor components and pipes can fit into a space about 1m x 1m x 2m—roughly the size of an under-stairs cupboard. They can be fitted in a garage, loft, or an existing cupboard.
Our experts can help you determine the best placement for an air source heat pump in your specific property.
