An air source heat pump transfers the heat drawn by a fan from the outside air to an indoor space. This heat is transferred via an evaporator that is situated within the heat pump. The refrigerant that circulates inside the pump is then further compressed using a compressor to produce more heat. The heat produced in this process is transferred in a heat exchanger to the heating and hot water systems in your home. This system is versatile and can be used for several different water heating purposes, including swimming pool heating.

Independent Newspaper 2017: According to Citizens Advise 2017 - 2.28m British households are now living in fuel poverty. Calculations by Citizens Advice revealed gas prices rose eight times higher than the average income in the UK and this trend is continuing into 2018.
Global unrest, increases in consumption, economic uncertainty and resource availability are all expected to cause fuel bills to continue to rise for the foreseeable future. The UK is fortunate to be spatially located next to a large gas reserve in the North Sea. This resource is obviously finite and there is a real lack of investment in renewable technologies to provide the energy mix needed to reduce our reliance on natural gas and other fossil fuels in the near future.
