How Do Air Source Heat Pumps Work?

Air source heat pumps draw air from outside and use it to heat a liquid refrigerant.
Next, the pump compresses the liquid using electricity, which increases its temperature. As it cools, the refrigerant condenses back into a liquid, releasing the stored heat.
After that, the heat flows into the radiators, and additional warmth is stored in a hot water cylinder.
Finally, the stored hot water provides heat for your showers and taps.

Installation

We install air source heat pumps for commercial, agricultural, and some domestic properties. These systems transfer heat from the outdoor air into indoor spaces. Similar to a refrigerator, they operate using a reversed process to extract and release heat efficiently. Typically, air source heat pumps are installed outside the property. However, space-saving options are available when required to suit specific site conditions.

Renewable and Quiet

Air source heat pumps provide a low-carbon, renewable heating solution. They are suitable for commercial, agricultural, and some domestic properties. These systems operate very quietly and deliver high efficiency throughout the year. In addition to heating, they can also provide cooling when required, making them a versatile option for any property.

Lower bills

An air source heat pump extracts heat from the air, reducing your reliance on mains electricity or gas. Its low running costs help the initial investment pay back quickly.
