Air source heat pumps are similar in operation to ground source heat pumps, except that heat is extracted from the air rather than the ground. Air source heat pumps are classified as either air to air or air to water depending on whether the heat distribution system in the building uses air to water.
The main advantage of air source heat pumps over ground source heat pumps is their lower installation cost. A ground source heat pump requires a network of underground coils that is used to extract heat from the ground. By comparison, air source heat pumps extract the heat directly from outside air and so avoid these potential problems.
Other benefits of air source heat pumps over conventional boilers include no combustion or explosive gases withing the building, no need for flues or ventilation, no local pollution, long life expectancy with minimal / no annual maintenance, simple engineering/fitting and much lower costs of running.
Stylishly designed domestic units can also be widely used in commercial buildings.
With the pump, plate heat exchanger, water storage and flow switch fitted inside as standard, the units are smaller than many on the market.
The units are reatively light, making transportation to and around the installation site much eaiser. This, in turn, makes installation easier.
Smart controller
LCD, LED or Carol Controllers are for option.

We have units available in stock. The units comply with all relevant European standards, including EN14511- both in terms of operating efficiency and manufacturing process as our manufacturing facilities are ISO 9001 accredited. The units have a COP of 3.24 based upon testing against the criteria set out in EN14511 - based upon an ambient temperature of 1/2°C (rather than 6/7—meaning that the units are extremely efficient) and use R407c/R410a refrigerant. Full specifications can be seen above.
Please also note: Our heat pumps are tested and certified by independent bodies approved and accredited by UKAS (the United Kingdom Accreditation Service) to carry the following quality marks covering safety, efficiency and/or Standard compliance in the UK, Mainland Europe, Asia, North America and Canada - CE mark, CB, CCC, GS, UL and EMC marks and our manufacturing facilities are certified to ISO 9001. All of our products are proven by independent bodies to be of the highest quality and efficiency and carry the above quality marks when sold anywhere across the globe.
 The units are extremely quiet when running less than 50db.
The savings that can be made on fuel costs is up to 75% and the units are designed to have a life span of 20 years with no substantial annual maintenance required or recommended.
All component parts of the units are from household name manufacturers such as the Danfoss heat exchanger, Wilo water pump, Copland or Hitachi scroll compressor and chiller 300 micro controller, so reliability and longevity is guaranteed.
The units deliver market leading performance at very low prices.
Our units are available for you to see in a fully working environment so that you can get a feel for the units and hear for yourself the low noise level generated by the units when running under full operational loads.
Note: Should be installed by a qualified fitter.
