Heat Pump Technology

How Air Source Heat Pumps Work in Surrey's Climate

Air source heat pumps are highly efficient heating systems that extract energy from outside air, even in cold weather. Perfect for Guildford's climate, they provide consistent heating whilst significantly reducing energy consumption compared to traditional gas boilers.

How It Works

1

Energy Extraction

Advanced refrigeration technology extracts heat from outside air, even when temperatures drop to -15°C

2

Heat Amplification

The system amplifies this energy using a compressor, delivering 3-4 units of heat for every unit of electricity consumed

3

Heat Distribution

Warm air or water is distributed throughout your Guildford home via radiators, underfloor heating, or air handling units

Our systems maintain high efficiency throughout the year and are specifically selected for optimal performance in Surrey conditions.

Guildford homeowners typically save 30-50% on heating costs compared to oil or LPG systems, and 20-40% compared to electric heating. The exact savings depend on your current system, property insulation, and usage patterns. With current energy prices and government grants covering up to £7,500 of installation costs, most Surrey customers see a payback period of 7-10 years.

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme provides £7,500 towards air source heat pump installation costs for eligible Guildford properties. This grant is available for homes replacing fossil fuel heating systems and doesn't require repayment. Additional support may be available through Surrey County Council initiatives. Our MCS certification ensures your installation qualifies for all available funding.

Most air source heat pump installations in Guildford are completed within 1-2 days, depending on system complexity and existing heating infrastructure. The process includes outdoor unit installation, internal modifications, system commissioning, and full testing.
