Air Source Heat Pumps
Thinking about moving off gas? We install air source heat pumps across Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent, efficient low-carbon heating with a free survey and honest advice on whether it suits your home.
An air source heat pump pulls warmth out of the outside air and uses it to heat your home and hot water, even in cold weather. Because it moves heat rather than burning fuel, a well-installed system runs at several times the efficiency of a gas boiler, which can mean lower running costs and a big cut in your carbon footprint. It is the direction home heating is heading, and there is a government grant to help with the upfront cost.
The catch is that heat pumps only perform if they are sized and installed properly. We start with a full heat-loss survey of your property, check your radiators and insulation, and tell you honestly whether your home is a good fit as it stands or what would need changing first. We would rather turn a job down than fit a system that never quite keeps you warm.
Where a heat pump makes sense we handle the whole install, the unit, the pipework, the cylinder and the controls, and talk you through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant that can take a chunk off the price. If a heat pump is not right for your home yet, we will tell you that too and sort your gas heating instead.

Most homes can take one, but performance depends on insulation and radiator sizing. We carry out a full heat-loss survey first and give you a straight answer on whether your home is ready or what would need upgrading. No survey, no promises.
Yes. The government's Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers a grant towards the cost of replacing a fossil-fuel boiler with an air source heat pump. We will explain how it works and factor it into your quote.
A correctly sized and installed heat pump will keep your home warm through a British winter, they are standard across much of colder Europe. The key words are correctly sized, which is exactly why we survey first.
They can be, because they deliver several units of heat for each unit of electricity. Running cost depends on your home, your tariff and how the system is set up. We will give you a realistic picture rather than a sales pitch.
