Air Source Heat Pumps
Air Source Heat Pumps represent a sustainable heating option, suitable for almost all households. It utilizes the outside air to generate heat for the heating system inside the in a much more efficient way as compared to traditional heating systems.
What are Air Source Heat Pumps?
Air source heat pumps are innovative and eco-friendly solutions that heat your home and hot water. A heat pump captures heat from outside and moves it into your home. It uses electricity to do this, but the heat energy delivered to your home is much more than the electrical energy used to power the system. This not only translates to significant cost savings on heating bills, but they’re also a nod to a greener planet with minimal carbon emissions.
How do Air Source Heat Pumps work?
An air source heat pump, also known as an air-to-water source heat pump, moves heat from the outdoor air to water, which is then used to warm your rooms through radiators or underfloor heating. Additionally, it can heat the water stored in a hot water cylinder for your household needs like hot taps, showers, and baths.
Air source heat pumps are typically installed on the exterior of buildings, commonly found at the side or back. They draw in heat from the surrounding air and use a compressor to amplify it before releasing the heat into your home.
Air source heat pumps can generate heat even when outside air temperatures are as low as -20°C. Despite the air being cool, there is still a significant amount of energy (heat) generated because of the substantial volume of air flowing over the heat exchanger.
NOTE –
Prior to the installation of air source heat pumps, it is essential to insulate your property to minimize heat loss through walls, floors, and the roof. If heat easily escapes from the property, the air source heat pump will need almost double the amount of electricity to produce and maintain the required warmth.

The inside unit for a split system only contains valves and pumps and makes very little noise at all.
In terms of the outside unit, Noise is created by large fans moving air across the heat exchanger. Unless the heat pump is working very hard (i.e., in cold weather or producing high temperature water), you can expect the noise to be a similar volume to a fridge, if you were standing within a couple of metres. As it gets colder outside, this noise will increase while it’s operating.
