Air Source Heat Pump Installation in Urmston, Trafford

Most homeowners we chat with in Trafford are surprised to learn just how much help is available to make the switch. Right now, the government’s Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) offers a massive £7,500 grant to help cover the cost of an ASHP installation. That’s a huge chunk of the initial investment taken care of, making renewable heating more accessible than ever. We’ll handle the technical bits and guide you through the process, ensuring you get every penny you’re entitled to. Why keep patching up an old, thirsty gas boiler when you could have a brand-new, eco-friendly system installed for a fraction of the usual price? Give us a ring at 01925 597837 and we can chat about whether your property qualifies.

You might be wondering if a heat pump can really handle a damp Tuesday in Greater Manchester. The short answer is yes. We look at something called the Seasonal Coefficient of Performance (SCOP). In plain English, for every 1kW of electricity the pump uses, it can produce 3 to 4kW of heat for your home. Compare that to a brand-new gas boiler, which is never even 100% efficient, and the savings start to make a lot of sense. By running at a lower flow temperature, these systems provide a steady, comfortable warmth rather than the 'on-off' blast of a traditional radiator. It’s a different way of heating, but once you’ve experienced the constant comfort, you won’t want to go back to the old way.

We don't believe in guesswork. Before we even think about bringing a van round to your house in Urmston, we perform a detailed heat loss survey. This isn't just a quick look at your radiators; we calculate exactly how much heat your home loses through its walls, windows, and roof. This ensures we size your ASHP installation perfectly. If the unit is too small, you'll be cold; if it's too big, you're wasting money. We also take care of the DNO application, which is just a fancy way of telling the local power grid that you’re installing a heat pump. It’s all part of the seamless service we provide to make sure your transition to green energy is as stress-free as possible.

One of the best things about switching to an air source heat pump is the boost it can give to your showers. Because ASHPs work best with an unvented hot water cylinder, you’ll often find your hot water pressure improves significantly. Imagine everyone in the house being able to use the hot taps at the same time without the pressure dropping to a trickle. Our team are experts at integrating these cylinders into your existing cupboard space, ensuring you have plenty of hot water ready whenever you need it. We’re Gas Safe registered (967977) and fully insured, so you know the plumbing side of the job is being handled by pros who live and work right here in the North West.
