FAQs
What is heat pump?
A heat pump is an energy-efficient system that transfers heat from one place to another. It can extract heat from the air or ground to warm your home, even in colder temperatures.
How do heat pumps work?
Heat pumps operate by moving heat rather than generating it. They absorb heat from the outside air or ground and transfer it indoors. This process can also be reversed in summer to provide cooling.
Are heat pumps efficient?
Yes! Heat pumps can be very efficient, converting 1 kilowatt of electricity into up to 3.5 kilowatts of heat, making them up to 350% efficient. This efficiency can help reduce energy bills and lower your carbon footprint.
What are the benefits of installing a heat pump?
• Energy savings: Lower energy bills compared to traditional heating methods.
• Minimal maintenance: Regular servicing keeps them running efficiently.
• Environmentally friendly: They use renewable energy sources, reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Can heat pumps work in winter?
Yes, air source heat pumps can operate effectively in winter, even in temperatures as low as -20°C. They are designed to extract heat from the outside air, ensuring a warm home year-round.
What grants are available for heat pumps?
The Government’s Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) offers a one-off payment of £7500 towards installing low-carbon heating systems, including heat pumps. This can significantly reduce installation costs.
