AIR SOURCE HEAT PUMPS

Air source heat pumps convert the energy created by the outside air into heat, giving a comfortable temperature inside the home and reducing heating costs by on average 50% compared to traditional systems.

Exhaust air heat pumps provide hygienic air inside the home, whilst capturing heat energy from lighting, people and domestic appliances, and recycling it.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF AIR SOURCE HEAT PUMPS
  • Air to air systems provide warm air such as exhaust heat pumps
  • Air to water systems heat water to provide heating to a building through radiators or an underfloor system

WHERE CAN THEY BE USED

Air source heat pumps are ideal for use where it is not possible to drill a borehole or lay surface absorbers for a ground source heat pump. They are generally used to complement more traditional heating systems, and typically deliver up to 80% of the space heating and hot water requirements for a building, while the traditional system delivers the balance on the coldest days or during peak demand. They can be used with underfloor heating systems and radiators. An additional back-up heating system will be required.

INSTALLING AIR SOURCE HEAT PUMPS
  • Air Source Heat Pumps are suitable for installation either in a new build or integrated into an existing building with a traditional heating system.
  • The only consideration for the positioning of the pump outside is proximity to the building.
  • It should be as close as possible to the building to prevent heat loss
