Heat Pumps
Heat pumps extract heat from air, ground or water sources to reduce your heating costs and potentially generate extra income for your property. Pure Renewables are leaders in the industry and with over 15 years experience you can trust them to provide your with the best solution for residential heat pumps for your home.
An Insight Into Residential Heat Pumps
Residential heat pumps reduce carbon emissions whilst providing permanent heat that can be used for radiators, underfloor heating or warm air heating systems and hot water. They are ideal for well insulated properties, regardless of the age of your home and our engineers will design a solution specifically to maximise the efficiencies for your particular property. Through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, you could also be entitled to a grant to cover part of the costs of replacing your existing fossil fuel heating system with a residential heat pump system.
Our team are dedicated to adding value to every project and our expert team take care of every aspect of your residential heat pump installation to give you peace of mind. We are passionate about combining our knowledge and experience with high quality products and excellent customer service to deliver specialist renewable energy solutions.
OurResidential Heat Pumps
Air Source Heat Pumps
Air source heat pumps absorb heat from the outside air, similar to how a fridge extracts heat from its inside. There are two main types of ASHP: an air-to-water system distributes heat via your wet central heating system, while an air-to-air system produces warm air which is circulated by fans to heat your home.
Ground Source Heat Pumps
Ground source heat pumps extract heat from the ground by circulating a mixture of water and antifreeze around a ground loop. Heat from the ground is absorbed into the fluid and then passes through a heat exchanger into the heat pump which then converts it into high-temperature heat.
Water Source Heat Pumps
Water source heat pumps are available in closed-loop and open-source variants. Closed-loop systems: pipes or coils filled with glycol are laid on the river/lake bed to absorb energy from the water. Open-source systems: water is pumped to a heat pump and the heat pump absorbs the energy directly from the water.

Residential air source heat pumps (ASHPs) absorb heat from the outside air, in the same way that a fridge extracts heat from its inside. There are two main types of air source heat pump: an air-to-water system distributes heat via your wet central heating system, while an air-to-air system produces warm air which is circulated by fans to heat your premises.
Residential air source heat pumps are ideal for new build premises, or well-insulated existing properties. You need space outside for a unit to be fitted, either on a wall or on the ground, where there is a good flow of air. The building should be well insulated and draught-proofed for best results and you will see better savings if replacing an electricity or oil heating system
The pump can get heat from the air even when the temperature is as low as -20° C. If temperatures plummet even further, the heat pump’s internal auxiliary unit will add the additional heat requirement. ASHPs come fitted with an auto-defrost function, so they can continue to produce hot water and heating in all weathers.
ASHP technology has an energy efficiency rating of A***, which is the highest level for heating and water production.
How much you can save will depend on what system you use now, as well as what you are replacing it with. ASHPs work best with underfloor heating or large radiators and are cheaper to run than oil-powered systems and older inefficient systems. Our experts will explain how to control the system so you can use it most effectively.

They may be considered as Permitted Development, in which case you will not need planning permission, but it is always a good idea to check with your local planning office and to obtain written confirmation regardless of whether it is permitted.
ASHPs have reduced in noise levels significantly over the last few years. Carefully sited pumps should present no disturbance to you or your neighbours and we follow strict MCS noise emission standards, which require careful emission calculations
RHI cash payments are made quarterly over the applicable term of the scheme. The amount you receive will depend on a number of factors – including the technology you install and the latest tariffs available for each technology.
