A clean and sustainable way to heat your home
What are Air Source Heat Pumps?
An air source heat pump will efficiently heat your home and provide you with hot water. If you are keen on saving money on your heating bills and reducing your carbon footprint, look no further. Working similarly to a fridge or air conditioning system, air source heat pumps extract and generate warm air. No matter the temperature outside, an air or ground source heat pump can still produce heat even in winter.
Here at Magna Renewables, we are professional air source heat pump installers and we offer our services to domestic and commercial customers. Finding a solution that works for you is our number one priority, and we are with you throughout the entire installation process.
By choosing our high-quality products combined with an efficient, committed customer service, you can rest assured your money is going towards an investment for your future. Enjoy reduced energy bills and greater savings, safe in the knowledge that you’re contributing to a healthier environment.
How do Air Source Heat Pumps work?
The low heat energy from the cold air is then transformed into a refrigerant gas which boils at a low temperature. After that, a compressor squeezes the molecules, dramatically increasing its temperature. This super-heated gas then goes through another heat exchanger where it is passed onto the water circulating through your central heating, giving you hot water.
In terms of efficiency, air source heat pumps have a greater efficiency rating than your average boiler. They run at a 300% efficiency rating, which far exceeds the 90% rating of a new boiler, or 60% rating of an older model. Although they run off electricity, they produce 3 units of heat for every unit of electricity they require.
To put it simply, they generate more energy than they use. It’s no surprise why they are an increasingly popular way to heat homes and commercial buildings as you can save an impressive £1,000 on your energy bills.
Types of Air Source Heat Pumps
Air-to-water heat pumps are designed to heat water for space heating and domestic hot water. They can be categorized into two main types:
Low-Temperature Air-to-Water Heat Pumps: These operate at lower temperatures (typically around 35-45°C) and are best suited for underfloor heating systems, which require lower water temperatures to operate efficiently.
High-Temperature Air-to-Water Heat Pumps: These can produce water at higher temperatures (up to 80°C) and are suitable for traditional radiator systems, which often require higher temperatures to provide adequate heating.
Split Air Source Heat Pumps: These consist of separate indoor and outdoor units connected by refrigerant pipework. They offer flexible installation options, reduced indoor noise, and can be configured as either air-to-air or air-to-water systems. Split systems often provide more flexibility with installation and easier maintenance compared to monobloc units.
Benefits of Air Source Heat Pumps
Air source heat pumps offer numerous benefits:
- Energy Efficiency: ASHPs are highly efficient, often achieving efficiency rates of 300-400%, meaning they can produce three to four units of heat for every unit of electricity consumed.
- Cost Savings: Over time, the efficiency of ASHPs can lead to significant cost savings on energy bills, especially when replacing older, less efficient heating systems.
- Environmental Impact: ASHPs reduce reliance on fossil fuels, lowering greenhouse gas emissions and contributing to a cleaner environment.
- Versatility: They can provide both heating and cooling, offering year-round climate control.
- Low Maintenance: With fewer moving parts than traditional HVAC systems, ASHPs generally require less maintenance and have longer lifespans.
- Renewable Energy Incentives: In the UK, government incentives such as the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) and the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) can help offset the cost of installation.

Powering your home with renewable energy
Without proper insulation, heat will escape the property meaning that your heat pump will have to work twice as hard to generate the heat needed. We will advise you on any of these recommendations as we want you to feel the full benefits of having an air source heat pump installed on your property.
There will be no need to worry about rising energy bills when an air source heat pump can help you use less electricity. Homeowners can relax, safe in the knowledge that they can enjoy year-round comfort without breaking the bank. Switching to renewable energy sources, such as solar power and the use of heat pumps can soothe your eco-anxiety and contribute to a greener and more sustainable future.
Get £7500 via the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
Installing a heat pump is a great investment if you want to be a more environmentally friendly household and reduce your energy bills.
With the new boiler upgrade scheme, property owners will be eligible to apply for a £7500 up front contribution towards the installation of an air or ground source heat pump.
The BUS grant does not require to be paid back and can help you save up to 50% of your heat pump cost.
