Air Source Heat Pump Installation in Cheadle Hulme, Stockport

The biggest hurdle for most people considering an ASHP installation is the initial cost. That's where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) comes in. Right now, the government is offering a £7,500 grant to help homeowners in Stockport replace their old gas or oil boilers with a heat pump. This isn't a loan you have to pay back; it's a direct discount on your installation. We're here to help you navigate the process, and we'll even handle the application for you. Imagine getting a brand-new, high-efficiency system with a massive chunk of the bill already paid for. It's a fantastic way to upgrade your property's value while doing your bit for the planet.

You might be wondering how a unit outside can keep your house warm during a chilly Stockport winter. It sounds like magic, but it's just smart physics. For every 1kW of electricity the pump uses, it can produce between 3 and 4kW of heat for your home. We call this the Seasonal Coefficient of Performance (SCOP). Unlike a traditional boiler that blasts heat and then turns off, an ASHP runs at a lower 'low-flow temperature.' This means your radiators stay at a gentle, consistent warmth, keeping your rooms comfortable all day long. It's especially effective if you have underfloor heating or larger radiators, ensuring your home stays snug even when the frost hits the windows.

Starting a renewable project can feel a bit daunting, but we make it simple. It all begins with a detailed Heat Loss Survey. We'll check your insulation and measure your rooms to make sure we size your new heat pump perfectly. We also take care of the DNO application, which is just a fancy way of saying we'll notify the local power grid about your new system. If you need an unvented hot water cylinder to ensure you get mains-pressure showers throughout the house, we can install that at the same time. From the first visit to the final commission, we're there to answer your questions and make sure the transition from your old boiler is seamless.
