How does an air-to-water heat pump work?

A heat pump takes energy from the outside air, even at very low temperatures, and transfers it into heat that is then circulated around a heating and hot water circuit. A heat pump uses electricity to power a compressor that boosts the temperature of the water so that is hot enough to warm your home through under-floor heating or radiators as well as fulfill your hot water needs.

Main benefits of heating with heat pumps

• High Efficiency: Extract up to 70% of energy freely from the air, using only a fraction of electricity.
• Energy Savings: Up to 500% efficient compared to traditional boilers (92%), significantly reducing energy bills.
• Renewable Energy: A great option for households looking to reduce their carbon footprint.
• Off-gas Solution: Ideal for areas without gas lines, offering savings over oil boilers.
• Eco-Friendly: No fossil fuels used and no local fumes generated, maintaining local air quality.
• Low Maintenance: Simple and cost-effective maintenance requirements.
