Services
Air Source Heat Pumps
Air source heat pumps extract ambient heat to provide 100% of a home's heating and hot water needs, operating efficiently even at -15C. These systems reduce reliance on fossil fuels, offering low-maintenance, energy-efficient solutions with a lifespan exceeding 20 years. Our installations include annual maintenance plans and two-year workmanship warranties.
Ground Source Heat Pumps
Ground source heat pumps utilise underground pipes to transfer heat, delivering sustainable heating and hot water with government incentives up to 7,500. Designed for long-term reliability, these systems integrate seamlessly with underfloor heating and require minimal annual maintenance. We ensure compliance with SAP calculations and building regulations.
Solar PV Installation
Solar PV systems generate electricity to power homes and charge electric vehicles, reducing energy bills and carbon footprints. Our installations include energy performance assessments and tailored designs to maximise efficiency. Systems are compatible with heat pumps and other renewable technologies for holistic energy solutions.
Underfloor Heating Systems
Underfloor heating provides even, energy-efficient warmth through low-profile systems suitable for new builds and retrofits. Compatible with various floor types, these systems eliminate radiators, save space, and improve indoor air quality. We partner with WarmUp for smart, Wi-Fi-controlled solutions with lifetime pipe warranties.
MVHR Installation
Mechanical Ventilation Heat Recovery (MVHR) systems replace stale air with filtered fresh air, reducing condensation and heating costs. Ideal for insulated modern homes, these systems recover heat from extracted air, maintaining comfort without window-opening heat loss. We offer expert sourcing and installation services.
Questions
How often should I service my heat pump?
Annual servicing by a professional installer is recommended for optimal performance and longevity.
Do your installations include warranties?
Yes, we provide a two-year workmanship warranty and minimum five-year parts warranty on heat pumps.
Can I keep my existing radiators?
In many cases, existing radiators can be retained, depending on their size and efficiency.
Is an EPC required for an estimate?
Yes, an up-to-date Energy Performance Certificate is needed to calculate installation and running costs.
Do you support Boiler Upgrade Scheme applications?
Yes, we assist customers with funding applications for eligible heat pump installations.
