Air source heat pumps (ASHPs) are rapidly becoming one of the UK’s most popular home heating upgrades. But how much could switching really save you?
Running Costs
ASHPs are around 3x more efficient than gas boilers. They deliver more heat per unit of electricity, which can reduce your energy use — especially if you’re switching from older electric systems, oil, or LPG.
Maintenance Costs
Heat pumps are low maintenance. With fewer moving parts than a gas boiler, they typically last longer and require fewer repairs over their lifetime.
Grant Savings
Through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS), you could receive £7,500 toward the cost of a new heat pump. In some cases, this could cover nearly the full cost.
Carbon Savings
An ASHP can cut your home’s carbon emissions by up to 65% compared to a standard gas boiler — making your home greener and future-proof.
Long-Term Value
Properties with high energy performance ratings are becoming more desirable. A heat pump can help improve your EPC rating, boost property value, and make your home more resilient to rising energy prices.
