Air Source Heat Pump Installation in Runcorn, Halton

It's not often the government hands out cash to help with home improvements, but that’s exactly what's happening right now with the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS). You could be eligible for a £7,500 grant to help cover the cost of your new air source heat pump installation. It’s designed to make renewable heating accessible for everyone, not just those with deep pockets. We’ve seen this grant take a huge chunk out of the initial investment for families across Halton, making the move to green energy a complete no-brainer. Worried about the paperwork? Don't be. We handle the heavy lifting and guide you through the process to ensure you get the funding you're entitled to. It's a fantastic way to swap out that old, rattling gas boiler for a high-spec heating system that adds real value to your property. Give us a call on 01925 597837 and let’s see if we can get that grant secured for your Runcorn home.

A common question we get while out on jobs in Runcorn is, "Does a heat pump actually work when it's freezing outside?" It’s a fair point, but the answer is a resounding yes. Think of an ASHP like a fridge running in reverse. Even when the air feels cold to us, there’s still plenty of ambient heat for the pump to extract and compress. In technical terms, we look at the Seasonal Coefficient of Performance (SCOP). To put it simply: for every 1kW of electricity the pump uses, you can get 3 to 4kW of heat back into your home. Compare that to a traditional gas boiler, which is never even 100% efficient, and you can see why the savings start to add up. These systems run at a low-flow temperature, providing a steady, consistent warmth rather than the 'on-off' blasts of heat you get from radiators. It creates a much more comfortable environment, especially when paired with modern controls or an unvented hot water cylinder for incredible shower pressure.

We don't just turn up and bolt a unit to your wall. A successful air source heat pump installation starts long before the tools come out. First, we carry out a detailed Heat Loss Survey of your Runcorn property. We look at everything from your insulation levels to the size of your windows to ensure the system is perfectly sized for your needs. Once the design is set, we manage the DNO application, which is just a fancy way of telling the local power grid about your new equipment. As Gas Safe registered engineers (967977), safety and precision are in our DNA. We'll handle the plumbing, the electrics, and the setup of your new system with the kind of care we'd use in our own homes. We pride ourselves on a tidy workspace and a seamless transition, so you aren't left without heating or hot water for a moment longer than necessary.
