Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHP) – Your Efficient Housemate
Efficient, low-carbon heating that extracts warmth from the air, even in cold Welsh winters.
How it works:
Even on a crisp Welsh day, an ASHP draws heat from the outside air, compresses it, and distributes it to your radiators, underfloor heating, and hot water cylinder. Think of it as a fridge, but in reverse — keeping your home cosy year-round.
Benefits:
- Quiet & unobtrusive - Operates smoothly without disturbing your home.
- Year-round efficiency – Reliable heating even in cold Welsh winters.
- Compatible – Works with existing radiators or underfloor heating systems.
- Eco Friendly – Significantly reduces your carbon footprint when paired with renewable energy sources.
- Grant Eligible – Qualifies for the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme

Ground Source Heat Pumps (GSHP) – The Secret Garden of Heating
Ultra-efficient heating using the steady warmth of the ground, perfect for homes with garden space.
How it works:
A GSHP circulates a fluid through underground pipes to absorb natural heat from the ground, which is then transferred into your home. Because the earth’s temperature remains steady, GSHPs provide consistent, reliable warmth even in freezing weather.
Benefits:
- Extremely low running costs - Efficient heating reduces energy bills.
- Reliable performance in cold climates – Reliable heating even in cold Welsh winters.
- Long lifespan & low maintenance – A long-term investment in comfort.
- Perfect for new builds or homes with land – Ideal where space allows for trenches or boreholes.
- Grant Eligible – Qualifies for the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme
