What are Air Source Heat Pumps?

Magna Renewables are Cheshire’s leading Air Source Heat Pump installers. 

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 energy from ambient air and generate heat. 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. 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?

Air source heat pumps work by taking in cold air from outside and passing it through a heat exchanger. The outside air temperature can be as low as -25°C and you will still benefit from renewable electricity from your heat pump.

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 400% 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 4 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Environmental Impact: ASHPs reduce reliance on fossil fuels, lowering greenhouse gas emissions and contributing to a cleaner environment.
  4. Versatility: They can provide both heating and cooling, offering year-round climate control.
  5. Low Maintenance: With fewer moving parts than traditional HVAC systems, ASHPs generally require less maintenance and have longer lifespans.
  6. 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.

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme

With the UK Boiler Upgrade Scheme, you can switch to an energy-efficient, eco-friendly air source heat pump. Government support makes this process more affordable, helping you reduce your carbon footprint and lower energy bills. Enjoy a modern, sustainable heating solution with less up front cost. 

How the Boiler Upgrade Scheme Works

The BUS scheme provides a grant of up to £7,500 for installing a low-carbon heating system. This grant helps offset the cost of replacing your old, fossil-fuel boiler. Homeowners in England and Wales are eligible for this support, which makes it easier to choose sustainable heating.

Powering your home with renewable energy

At Magna Renewables, we treat every customer as an individual. We carefully assess your energy needs to ensure you get the most from your air source heat pump. Before beginning any project, our team conducts a full property survey to create a tailored plan.

Steps to Maximize Efficiency

To optimize your system’s performance, we may suggest upgrades, such as replacing older radiators for better heat distribution. Additionally, basic property improvements—like cavity wall insulation, loft insulation, and double glazing—are highly recommended before installing a heat pump. Proper insulation reduces heat loss, helping your heat pump work efficiently without overexerting itself. As a result, you’ll experience consistent comfort at lower energy costs.

Year-Round Comfort with Lower Bills

With an air source heat pump, you’ll enjoy reduced energy consumption and a more sustainable heating solution. Rising energy bills become less of a worry, as heat pumps allow you to use electricity more efficiently. You can relax, knowing that your home is comfortable, eco-friendly, and economical.

Switching to renewable energy sources like heat pumps and solar power not only lowers your costs but also eases eco-anxiety. Embrace a greener future with confidence and contribute to a more sustainable world.
