Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)
The key benefits include reduced energy bills, decreased carbon footprint, increased property value, and improved energy independence. Our solutions not only lower your reliance on traditional energy sources but also offer a cleaner, more sustainable way of living.
The short answer is no. ASHP's are actually very quiet. They do make some level of noise due to their working components, but all our installations are MCS Certified which means your heat pump is guaranteed to have a decibel noise rating of 45 or less at a 1-metre distance. That's less noise than the average home fridge makes and a little more than leaves rustling.
Yes, heat pumps are able to extract heat from the air even when temperatures are as low as -10, so you will still have a nice toasty house and hot water in even the coldest depths of winter.
All Air Source Heat Pumps can be installed to integrate with your existing radiators and are a great match for underfloor heating systems. Floors obviously cover a much bigger area than radiators so they don’t need to get as hot but will provide the same amount of heat. You can also combine your heat pump with solar photovoltaic (PV) panels which would make your carbon footprint even smaller!
The heat pump itself will be installed outside your house, ideally on the side or rear to minimise the external appearance of your property. It will need to be on a solid, flat surface such as a concrete base so it is stable and also be subject to good airflow to ensure maximum efficiency. It must also be situated a minimum of 1-metre away from any boundary lines to neighbours.
Providing you don't have a wind turbine on your property then you will not require planning permission as in most cases, the installation of an Air Source Heat Pump is classed as permitted development. Do always check with your local authority to err on the side of caution.
