What can customers do to reduce the cost of an air source heat pump installation?

The cost of installing an air source heat pump can be more expensive than replacing a customer’s boiler like for like. But homeowners can reduce their carbon footprint and increase the efficiency of their property.

They need to consider:

• Insulation and replacement windows and doors
• Resizing of radiators/pipework
• Adding or replacing a cylinder
• Changing the boiler to an air source heat pump

These upgrades do not have to be done at the same time. Customers could do them in order, over a period of years. This would spread the cost and improve the home, energy bills and carbon footprint in the process.
