Air source heat pump installers covering the Thames Valley & Home Counties

Air source heat pumps with the supply, controls and emitters considered as one system.

Heat Pumps work by Ridgeway Electrical

A heat pump only performs if the flow temperature is low, which means emitters and controls matter as much as the unit. We carry out a room-by-room heat loss calculation and tell you plainly where the building needs work first.

What's included

  • Room-by-room heat loss survey before specification
  • Air source units from 5 kW to 16 kW
  • Supply upgrade and dedicated circuit where required
  • Weather compensation controls set up on handover
  • Boiler Upgrade Scheme paperwork submitted for you

Common questions

Will a heat pump work with my radiators?
Often yes, but some radiators need upsizing. We run a full heat loss calculation room by room rather than guessing.
How efficient are they in winter?
A well-designed system runs at a seasonal efficiency of around 350 to 400 percent, meaning roughly 3.5 to 4 kW of heat per kW of electricity.
Is there a grant available?
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant applies to most homes. We handle the application as an MCS-certified installer.
How much space is needed?
An outdoor unit against an external wall plus room for a hot water cylinder, typically in an airing cupboard or utility.
