Frequently Asked Questions:

There are two primary categories of air source heat pumps: monobloc and split systems.

In a monobloc system, all components are housed within a single outdoor unit. Pipes convey water to the central heating system, and a hot water cylinder is situated inside your home.

Conversely, a split system separates the components between indoor and outdoor units.

The choice between a monobloc and split system hinges on factors such as your budget and available space. Monobloc systems are generally more cost-effective and have a quicker installation process. They occupy less space indoors, albeit being marginally less efficient than split systems. Split systems, on the other hand, can boast enhanced efficiency as some heat transfer occurs indoors, where the ambient temperature is higher, resulting in reduced heat loss.

 

Ultimately, the decision depends on your specific needs and considerations.

A suitable external location is necessary for installing a unit either on a wall or on the ground outside your home. Sufficient space around the unit is essential to facilitate optimal air circulation.

​If space constraints within your home are not an issue, investing in a split system, despite the additional cost, might be worthwhile. Your installer will guide you through the available options, assisting you in selecting the design that aligns best with your preferences and requirements.

Designed with precision for heating small, well-insulated modern flats and homes, compact heat pumps are tailored to efficiently operate within limited spaces. These units require only a cupboard with approximately 80cm x 80cm of floor space within the flat, ideally positioned near an exterior wall.

​Alternatively, for smaller properties like park homes or flats, an air-to-air heat pump presents itself as a viable option. In cases where heating is provided communally for each flat in shared-service flats, other solutions may be more suitable.

A conventional heat pump doesn’t supply hot water instantly like a combi boiler. Therefore, a means of storing hot water, such as a hot water cylinder, is essential for meeting your hot water needs.

​Hot Water Cylinders: The size of the hot water cylinder should align with your household’s typical hot water consumption. These cylinders are typically accommodated in cupboards measuring at least 80x80cm.

​Alternative Solutions: If space constraints hinder the installation of a hot water cylinder, alternative options are available. Some hybrid systems are configured to have the heat pump handle heating, while a boiler caters to hot water demand.

​Another consideration is the installation of a heat battery, which occupies less space than a traditional hot water cylinder.

​For a more compact solution, instantaneous hot water heaters are also viable. These can be installed under your kitchen sink, providing a smaller, immediate supply of hot water.
