Air source heat pump installers Bolton

Why make the switch to an air source heat pump?

Moving over to renewable energy solutions isn’t just about ticking a green box—it is about upgrading to a smarter, more efficient way of living. If you are tired of watching your meter spin out of control every time the "Big Light" isn't even on, this might be the solution.

  • Slash your energy bills Air source heat pumps (ASHPs) are incredibly energy-efficient machines. In many cases, they produce three to four times more heat energy than the electrical energy they consume. In plain English? You get more warmth for your money. This efficiency often leads to significant savings compared to running a traditional fossil fuel boiler, which can never be more than 100% efficient.

  • Lower your carbon footprint By ditching the gas or oil burner, you are directly contributing to a cleaner, greener future for Bolton. You will be significantly reducing your household carbon emissions, helping the town move towards its net-zero targets.

  • £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) The government is keen for you to swap out your old gas boiler, and they are putting serious money on the table to help you do it. You could be eligible for a heat pump grant of £7,500 to cover a massive chunk of the heat pump installation cost. We handle the paperwork, making it a smooth process for you.

  • Reliable in cold weather Worried about those frosty walks up Winter Hill? Don't be. Modern ASHPs are engineered to extract existing heat from the air even when the mercury plummets to -20°C. Your home stays toasty, no matter what the Bolton weather throws at it.

  • Quiet & unobtrusive Forget the clunky, rattling machinery of the past. Our systems are whisper-quiet as they generate heat, ensuring you (and your neighbours) enjoy peace and quiet alongside your warmth.

The "Heat Geek" difference

We aren't just standard heat pump installers; we are certified "Heat Geeks." But what does that badge actually mean for you and your home?

In the heating industry, being a "Heat Geek" is the gold standard. It means we have undergone rigorous, specialised training in advanced heating system design. While many standard installers might simply swap a boiler for a heat pump and hope for the best, we meticulously design your system from the ground up.

We master the complex science of hydronics, pipe sizing, and flow rates to ensure your system runs at peak efficiency. A heat pump is only as good as its installation; with a Heat Geek assured installation, you’re getting a system that is bespoke to your property. This guarantees maximum comfort and the lowest possible running costs. We don't guess; we calculate.

Frequently Asked Questions

I live in a terrace house near the town centre; do I have space for a heat pump?

Absolutely. You don't need a sprawling estate to fit an air source heat pump. The outdoor units are surprisingly compact—about the size of a large suitcase. As long as you have a small amount of outdoor wall space or a backyard, we can usually find a solution that works perfectly without cramping your style.

Will my radiators need replacing during the heat pump installation?

Sometimes, but not always. Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures than gas boilers (which makes them efficient), so they need enough surface area to release that heat. We might need to swap a single-panel radiator for a double-panel one, but we calculate this room-by-room to ensure you get the warmth you need without unnecessary upgrades.

Is the £7,500 grant difficult to apply for?

Not when you work with us. As approved air source heat pump installers Bolton, we manage the application for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme on your behalf. We check your eligibility (essentially, you need to own the home and have a valid EPC) and handle the admin, so the grant is deducted from your final quote.

Is there more maintenance with a heat pump compared to a boiler?

Generally, no. In fact, they can often be lower maintenance. A yearly service is recommended to keep the warranty valid and ensure efficiency—just like a traditional gas boiler—but because there is no fuel burning inside the unit, there are fewer moving parts to go wrong.

How long is the air source heat pump installation process?

The installation process for an air source heat pump typically takes 2 to 5 days, depending on the complexity of the project and the size of your property. This includes setting up the outdoor unit, connecting it to your heating system, and ensuring everything is running efficiently. Before installation, a site survey is usually conducted to assess your home’s requirements, which helps streamline the process.

Can an air source heat pump also be used as air conditioning?

Yes, many air source heat pumps can function as both a heating and cooling system. These are known as reversible heat pumps. In the summer, they can reverse their operation to extract heat from your home and release it outside, effectively cooling your indoor space. This makes them a versatile solution for year-round comfort.

Can I use an air source heat pump to power underfloor heating?

Absolutely! Air source heat pumps are an excellent match for underfloor heating systems. Both work efficiently at lower temperatures compared to traditional radiators, making them a perfect pair. Underfloor heating provides a consistent, even warmth throughout your home, and when combined with an air source heat pump, it maximises energy efficiency and comfort. You can even use them in conjunction with solar panels for a complete sustainable heating solution in your home.

If you're considering upgrading to underfloor heating or integrating it with a heat pump, Lloyd's Gas can design a bespoke system tailored to your home’s needs. Let us help you create a cozy, energy-efficient living space!
