Air Source Heat Pumps in Bristol
Homes in Bristol
Bristol is a large city in the south-west of England, about 8 miles east of our base in Portishead. Its housing covers a wide range of ages, which is why a look at your own home matters more than a general answer. Insulation and radiator sizing decide much of how a heat pump performs, so a Victorian terrace, a Georgian house and an inter-war semi may each need different attention. The outdoor unit also has to fit within the noise and siting limits that come with permitted development. A recent review picked out the professionalism and diligence shown when issues came up on a complex installation.
“Richard and Reuben have just completed our heat pump installation and we can’t speak highly enough of the job they have done. From the scheme design to completing the job they’ve been reliable, professional, knowledgable and have been diligent in finding fixes for everything that’s cropped up during the complex installation. They take real pride in the work they do and have been an absolute pleasure to have doing the work.”

Questions about air source heat pumps in Bristol
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme apply to homes in Bristol?
Bristol is in England, and the scheme gives a grant towards a heat pump for many homes in England and Wales. Eligibility comes down to your property and the scheme rules, so we check the grant route with you before anything is agreed.
Should I improve insulation before switching to a heat pump?
A well-insulated home gives a heat pump an easier job, alongside radiators or underfloor heating suited to lower flow temperatures. We look at your insulation level as part of the quote, so you know where your home stands before deciding.
