As the demand for renewable energy solutions grows, Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHP) have emerged as a popular choice for efficient, eco-friendly heating.

For gas engineers and professionals in heating and plumbing, understanding how to install and maintain ASHP systems is essential in today’s evolving market.

What Are Air Source Heat Pumps?

Air Source Heat Pumps extract heat from the outside air, even in cold weather, to warm homes and water.

Unlike traditional gas or electric heating systems, ASHPs use renewable energy, reducing carbon emissions and helping homeowners save on energy costs.

This technology is particularly appealing as the UK pushes towards its net-zero goals, aiming to minimise reliance on fossil fuels and embrace cleaner, renewable options.
