The Future of Central Heating

Depending on your property, A M Bull Associates will consult you on highly effective, energy efficient and value for money heating system that will suit your needs.

Heat pumps take heat from one location, upgrade the heat and then use this to heat water. This can then provide a total heating solution throughout the year for you home.

In the UK average winter temperatures are around 5°C. In an air source heat pump system there are three independent circuits: the outside air, the refrigerant circuit and the building's water based heat distribution system. They are connected via heat exchangers within the heat pump which transfers the low grade heat from the air into usable heat to heat the building. Some models of air source heat pump can also operate in reverse mode to provide cooling.

Air source heat pumps can provide heat for the following:-

• Under floor heating
• Standard Radiators
• Domestic Hot Water
• Fan Coils
• Skirting board radiators

They can operate at more than 3 times the efficiency of conventional heating systems and as a result help to minimise Co2 emissions and reduce the heating costs of your property.

This type of heat pump works all year round even when the temperature outside is below freezing.

Air source heat pumps offer the following benefits:-

• High efficiencies, greater than 250%
• Low running costs
• No ground work required
• 30-50% reduction in Co2 emissions
• No gas supply or oil supply required
• Low starting currents ( inverter controlled)
• Low maintenance
• Reduced VAT from 15% to 5% for domestic applications
• Low noise
• Reliable, proven technology
