Installing an air source heat pump is a great way of producing your own heat, reduce your carbon emissions and save money on your heating bills. It doesn’t need to be warm outside to work as they will generate heat even when outside air temperatures are as low as -20°C.

They work in a similar way to a fridge or air conditioning system, the difference being is that they actually produce warm air. Air source heat pumps are an electrically powered unit, but with a high efficiency rating. Compare this to a 90% efficient A-rated gas boiler, or older lower 60% rated boilers and you’ll quickly realise why air source heat pumps are a popular way to heat your home or business.

Overall, insulation is a great way to make your home more energy efficient and comfortable. It’s like adding a layer of protection against the elements, so you can enjoy a comfortable temperature all year round.

All of these factors contribute to making modern boilers much more energy efficient than older models.
