How Much do Air Source Heat Pumps in Sheffield Cost?

If you're considering upgrading to an air source heat pump in Sheffield, you're likely wondering about the cost. The initial installation cost of an air source heat pump system varies depending on the size of your home, the levels of insulation you have and whether you will need any radiator upgrades.

​

Key Factors Affecting Air Source Heat Pump Costs
​
  • Size of Your Home- The size of your home plays a major role in determining the cost of an air source heat pump system. Larger homes require larger and more powerful heat pumps to efficiently heat the entire property. For smaller homes, a less powerful, smaller unit will suffice, which will reduce the overall cost. Generally, a typical air source heat pump installation can range between £7,000 to £14,000, but this is largely dependent on your specific property.

 

  • Insulation LevelsThe efficiency of an air source heat pump is greatly influenced by how well your home is insulated, but also dictates the size of heat pump required to effectively heat your home. If your home is poorly insulated, you will need a larger heat pump and if your home is well insulated, a smaller heat pump will be sufficient, reducing the initial cost. 

 

  • Radiator UpgradesAir source heat pumps operate at a lower flow temperature than traditional boilers. As a result, homes with older or smaller radiators may require upgrades to ensure that the system can adequately heat the property. Installing larger or additional radiators can add to the cost of the project. The extent of these upgrades will depend on your current heating system and the layout of your home.

 
Typical Price Breakdown
​

To give you a better idea of what to expect, here’s a rough breakdown of costs:

​

  • Heat Pump Unit: £4,000 to £8,000, depending on the size and efficiency.

  • Installation Costs: £3,000 to £6,000, including labor and any necessary modifications.

  • Radiator Upgrades: £100 to £500 per radiator, depending on size and type.

The Benefits of Air Source Heat Pumps
Cost Saving & Effective

Your energy expenditures may be significantly reduced by using an air source heat pump to heat your home. Compared to conventional heating systems like gas, oil or LPG, they produce more energy than they use to operate. Installing an air source heat pump currently attracts a government grant to make it even more affordable.

Environmentally Friendly

Air source heat pumps help create a better environment by utilising renewable energy from the air. They generate fewer carbon emissions than traditional heating systems, allowing you to reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to the fight against climate change. Utilising renewable electricity sources further reduces your carbon footprint.

Heating & Cooling

Air source heat pumps are capable of both heating and cooling. They can reverse their cycle in the summer to give your house effective air conditioning. The need for separate heating and cooling systems is eliminated by this dual capability, which reduces the energy use in your home.

Longevity & Health

These systems are renowned for their longevity and minimal upkeep. Your air source heat pump may typically operate at peak performance for years with just routine inspections and servicing. They have less parts in comparison to gas boilers and so there is a lower chance of something going wrong. An air source heat pump will last around 25 years if looked after properly.

Common Misconceptions

It is sometimes reported that air source heat pumps are ineffective in cold climates, but contrary to this air source heat pumps work well in cold temperatures as long as they are sized and designed correctly. Even in below-freezing temperatures, modern heat pump models are still able to effectively remove heat from the outside air, amplify it and heat your home effectively. And although some previous models could be noisy, the latest models are designed to run softly, so you can enjoy a quiet and comfortable home environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can a Heat Pump Replace My Gas Boiler?
    A heat pump is designed to provide 100% of your home's heating and hot water needs so yes, it will replace your gas boiler. It will work with either radiators or underfloor heating and will use a hot water cylinder to provide your hot water.
  • How Much Space Do I Need to Install an Air Source Heat Pump?
    The heat pump unit itself will be placed outside your home, preferably against a wall. The size of a heat pump varies but as a general guide it will be around 1 metre wide and 1 metre high. You will also need space inside your home or in a garage or outhouse for a hot water cylinder. Your heat pump engineer will discuss with you where the equipment could be sited during an initial consultation.
  • Do Air Source Heat Pumps Protect the Environment?
    Of course! Among the most eco-friendly heating and cooling solutions available are air source heat pumps. They emit less carbon gases and rely on renewable energy.
  • Will My Energy Costs Drop With an Air Source Heat Pump?
    Absolutely, air source heat pumps have a reputation for being energy-efficient. Your heating and cooling expenses might be greatly decreased by them because they transfer heat efficiently.
  • Can an Air Source Heat Pump Cool My Home?
    Air source heat pumps are widely known for heating homes and providing hot water, but they can also be reversed and cool your home too! During the summer months, reversing the heat pump will remove heat from your rooms and expel this through the heat pump fan, leaving cooler air indoors.
  • Do Air Source Heat Pumps Require Servicing?
    We recommend an annual service to ensure your heat pump works efficiently and to increase longevity. This include evaluating the system for problems, cleaning the filters, and monitoring the refrigerant levels.
  • Can an Air Source Heat Pump Work With My Existing Radiators?
    A heat pump engineer will carry out a heat loss survey during your initial consultation which will help to establish if your existing radiators will be a sufficient size to work with a new heat pump. Sometimes, larger radiators will be recommended to ensure optimal efficiency of the heating system.
