Air source heat pump outside a modern home

In simple terms

What is a heat pump?

An air source heat pump is a unit that sits outside your home. It takes warmth from the outside air, even on cold days, and uses it to heat your radiators and hot water.

It works a bit like a fridge in reverse. For every unit of electricity it uses, it can produce around three units of heat.
