Top Benefits of Air Source Heat Pumps for Merseyside Homes

Air source heat pumps (ASHPs) are revolutionising home heating in Merseyside, offering an energy-efficient, eco-friendly alternative to traditional boilers. Through the ECO4 scheme, eligible households can access free or subsidised ASHP installations, saving money and reducing carbon emissions.

At Warmr, we’re committed to helping Merseyside residents benefit from this cutting-edge technology. Here are the top benefits of air source heat pumps and why they’re ideal for your home.

What Are Air Source Heat Pumps?

ASHPs extract heat from the outside air, even in cold weather, to warm your home and provide hot water. They work like a refrigerator in reverse, using electricity to transfer heat efficiently. Compared to gas boilers, ASHPs use less energy, making them a cost-effective and sustainable choice for Merseyside’s cold winters.

Benefits of Air Source Heat Pumps

1. Significant Energy Savings

ASHPs are up to three times more efficient than traditional boilers, producing more heat per unit of energy. This can reduce heating bills by 20–30%, saving a typical Merseyside household £200–£500 annually. ECO4 covers the cost for eligible households, making it a no-cost solution.

2. Reduced Carbon Footprint

ASHPs use renewable energy from the air, significantly lowering your home’s carbon emissions. This aligns with Merseyside’s net-zero goals, helping combat climate change and create a greener future.

3. Improved Home Comfort

ASHPs provide consistent heating and hot water, eliminating cold spots and ensuring year-round comfort. They’re ideal for Merseyside homes with poor insulation or outdated heating systems.

4. Low Maintenance

ASHPs require minimal maintenance compared to gas boilers, with fewer moving parts and longer lifespans. This reduces long-term costs and hassle for homeowners.

5. Increased Property Value

Energy-efficient homes with ASHPs often have higher EPC ratings, making them more attractive to buyers and tenants in Merseyside’s competitive property market.

Who Qualifies for Free ASHPs?

You may be eligible through ECO4 if:

• You receive benefits like Universal Credit, Pension Credit or other means tested benefits.

• Your home has an EPC rating of D, E, F, or G.
