Air Source Heat Pumps

Air Source Heat Pumps are an efficient way of heating your property, especially for systems such as underfloor heating where the heat is on low for a longer duration and for radiator heating.

Not only can you save money on fuel bills, you could also receive money from the Government’s Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI), reduce your use of fossil fuels and cut your household’s CO2 usage.

What are the Benefits of Air Source Heat Pumps?

• Less space is required compared to other renewable products because the main unit is located outside.

• They are generally more cost effective to install than alternative renewable heating systems.

• On a well-designed heating system with under-floor heating and an outside air temperature of 7°C, air source heat pumps can reach efficiencies of up to 5.1kW of heat for every 1kW of electricity used. This is known as the COP (Coefficient of Performance). Electric storage heaters have a COP of 1kW of heat to every 1kW of electricity used.

• Can be used with radiators and under-floor heating systems.

• Only one fuel bill is required for your home as they only require electricity to run.

• Very reliable as there are no hot burners required.

• Applicable for Home Energy Scotland funding

How does it work?

1. Ambient air

Heat is extracted from the ambient air.

2. Refrigerant in tubes

As the ambient air is pulled through the evaporator, refrigerant is circulated through the evaporator.

3. Compressor

This raises the temperature of the refrigerant and turns the liquid refrigerant to gas.

4. Condensed refrigerant

The hot gas is then passed through a condenser where the heat is passed onto water.

5. Expansion Valve

Once the heat has been removed the hot gas turns back into a liquid to start the cycle again.
