Air Source Heat Pump Systems
At Blue Leaf Energy, our experienced engineers develop solutions that fit exactly to each home. As MCS-accredited installers, we will help you design, install, commission and maintain your system.
Our expertise includes the installation of Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs), one of the most innovative and efficient methods of heating your property while reducing carbon emissions and energy costs.
Air source heat pumps extract heat from the air outside your property, even on cold days. They then transform this heat into a useful form for warming your home via radiators, generating hot water or powering underfloor heating systems.
How Do Air Source Heat Pumps Work?
Air Source Heat Pumps work by absorbing heat from the outside air, akin to a fridge working in reverse. This heat is concentrated via a compressor and then used to warm your property. Importantly, ASHPs can still extract heat when the outside temperature is as low as -25°C.
ASHPs can be a great solution for a variety of properties and requirements. They can function as a standalone heating solution or be combined with other renewable energy technologies to create a comprehensive clean heating system.
Air Source Heat Pumps Benefits
Investing in an Air Source Heat Pump from Blue Leaf Energy brings a variety of benefits.
Whether you are a homeowner, builder or business, you could save money on your utility bills by switching to a renewable energy system. Air Source Heat Pumps are more cost-effective and cleaner than traditional gas boiler systems. They are perfect for homes with limited outside space and can work with radiators or underfloor heating, drastically reducing your carbon emissions in the process.
Unlike traditional gas boilers, heat pumps generally expect a 20-year lifespan with low maintenance requirements (once a year service). You can also expect a new heat pump system to add value to your property. In properties with good insulation, every kilowatt hour (kWh) of electricity used to power the heat pump can provide around three to four kWh of ‘free’ thermal energy. This means that a heat pump’s efficiency can reach around 400%- significantly more than boilers that tend to run at around 92%. You can find these details by looking at your heat pump’s COP (Coefficient of Performance) or SCOP (Seasonal Coefficient of Performance).

Property Value
Once a new heat pump system is installed, it can often add value to properties.
The Government’s Boiler Upgrade Scheme was upgraded in October 2023, meaning the majority of homes in England can access £7500 of funding towards a Heat Pump System (Air Source or Ground Source). However, there is only a limited amount available. As an MCS-accredited installer, Blue Leaf Energy can also help you access government funding incentives like the Boiler Upgrade Scheme.
As MCS accredited installers, this also means your system will be designed, installed and commissioned to exactly what your home needs and the highest industry requirements. We also provide aftercare support and can help maintain your heat pump.
We are accredited installers of the HIES Consumer Code, meaning your money is protected no matter what- you don’t have to take our word for it. This also means all our workmanship is backed by a minimum two-year guarantee. Heat pumps come with longer manufacturer-backed guarantees which are usually around 5 to 7 years.
All services are managed and delivered by Blue Leaf Energy Engineers. From design to install, electrical works to commissioning then handover. Once our engineers and you are happy, we will hand over the system along with the customer handover pack. This all the information you require for your system including warranties and aftercare support from BLE. We provide maintenance support too.
Choosing Blue Leaf Energy as your ASHP installer has numerous advantages. As MCS accredited installers, we offer a comprehensive service from the initial consultation, free no-obligation quotations and site survey to the final installation and aftercare. This also means we can access BUS scheme funding (£7500). Our team of experts are committed to providing high-quality installations and ensuring that your ASHP is designed exactly to your property and heating requirements.
We’re a trusted, certified provider of sustainable energy solutions and our commitment to quality, reliability, and professionalism makes us a preferred choice for homeowners. We also offer competitive pricing, ensuring that our sustainable solutions are accessible and affordable.
