Air Source Heating Systems

How do air source heat pumps work?

An air heat source pump uses a low pressure refrigeration gas to absorb heat from the air, then compresses the gas to release the heat into water. The gas again goes round the system under low pressure and aborbs heat from the air, then compresses the gas to release the heat into water. This process is ongoing whilst the heat unit is switched on. It works the same as your fridge but in reverse. This unit is just like a replacement boiler but with very little mess.

All air source energy systems and any work carried out is registered and guaranteed by local authorities and governing bodies.

Gas Escape

Turn off the gas emergency control valve  at the meter.

Eliminate all sources of ignition i.e. smoking, blowlamps etc.

Do not turn on electrical lights or switches.

Open all doors and windows to ventilate the area.

Contact the gas supplier if the smell of gas persists, or if the escape is suspected to be upstream of the emergency control valve or the smell of gas is outside or from another property.
