Expert Domestic Heat Pump Installers for Terraced houses

Air source heat pumps are well-suited to terrace houses, particularly in urban areas. The compact outdoor unit doesn’t require much outdoor space and can even be mounted on flat rooftops, making it a feasible option for many homeowners.

If you are considering installing a heat pump in your terraced property, it’s important to ensure the location of the outdoor unit complies with regulations. It’s also a must to talk to your neighbours, especially if the unit is to be placed on a shared wall. Even if it isn’t, it’s still wise to have an open discussion to ensure the unit is placed somewhere that causes minimum disruption and disturbance. While air source heat pumps emit a noise no louder than the passing traffic, it’s worthwhile offering your reassurance to keep things amiable!

Properly sizing the ASHP system is crucial for terraced houses. While terraces are typically compact, they must be well-insulated to ensure optimum efficiency. Older terraces may need to upgrade their windows or insulation in preparation.

If you are thinking of installing a heat pump in your terraced property, then Cinergi can carry out a thorough on-site survey. We will make accurate heat-loss calculations to determine the size of the heat pump required to ensure optimum efficiency. To arrange a survey and quotation, please get in touch.

Air source heat pumps are most commonly found in 2 forms:

What are the benefits of Air Source Heat Pumps for terraced houses?

1) Reduced Fuel Bills

Depending on your current energy supply, installing an air source heat pump could reduce your heating energy bills. Typically, the largest savings are seen when replacing oil, LPG, electric, or old/inefficient natural gas boilers.

Customer Reviews

After speaking to several heating engineers we decided to go with Cinergi to upgrade our old back boiler for a new Worcester Bosch combi. We are so glad with our choice and would recommend Ian to anyone. We are delighted with the service we have received, we were never without hot water and he worked in a professional and friendly manner. Ian’s quote was clear and itemised so we could see exactly what we were spending our money on and he was able to offer us helpful advice on the best solution for us.

We Chose Cinergi to replace our 17 year old boiler, we contacted Ian at Cinergi through the Bosch Worcester accredited installer website with a few other companies. We had several other companies attend but they wanted to remove some of my decking to install a soakaway buried in the ground with limestone chippings, Ian was the only one who said there was no need for that to be done – he would install a Sentinel condensafe condensate neutraliser. Ian was very professional, friendly and knowledgeable i would not hesitate to recommend him his workmanship was fantastic.

Cinergi were able to fit a new boiler at short notice with a more than reasonable quote. Ian arrived as scheduled, was very friendly and knowledgeable and got straight on with the job. His workmanship is excellent plus he takes away the old boiler/rubbish, making sure the job is left tidy. During the installation I presented Ian with a separate bit of work, moving a problematic pipe for an existing radiator. He solved the issue with some clever pipework which he was able to hide leaving a perfect finish. Overall Ian was brilliant at his job and is obviously very experienced and skilled. I would highly recommend him to anybody and we will definitely be using Cinergi in the future.
