Customer Testimonials

Success stories: hear from our satisfied customers

I employed these guys to do the annual service of my ASHP. Excellent service and kept me in the picture throughout. Found faults that were as a result of the install by others so this can be followed up. Very knowledgeable company.
Thank You

Richard

Expert installation engineers advised where necessary via smartphone by even more expert staff. Very good liaison with The Green Partnership customer manager.
The Heat Pump plus new radiators deliver the heat planned and is a radical improvement on our previous combi-boiler system.

Philip Rees

We had some uncertainties about installing an air source heat pump and radiators in our new house, but John and his team did a great job and we felt reassured by their expertise and their understanding of the technology.A year on and following our first annual service we would highly recommend the Green Partnership.

Frequently asked questions about Air Source Heat Pumps

Common questions about air source heat pumps answered

The average cost for a complete air source heat pump installation is between £8,000-£14,000 depending on property size and system specifications. However, with the government's Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS), you can receive a grant of up to £7,500, significantly reducing the upfront cost to as little as £500-£6,500.

Yes! Modern air source heat pumps are designed to work efficiently even in temperatures as low as -20°C. While efficiency does decrease slightly in very cold weather, they continue to provide heating throughout the year. In fact, heat pumps are widely used in Scandinavian countries with much colder climates than the UK.

Savings vary depending on your current heating system. If replacing oil or LPG, you could save £400-£1,400 per year. Replacing older electric heating systems can save £300-£900 annually. Even replacing gas boilers can result in savings of £200-£600 per year, especially with rising gas prices. Heat pumps are 300-400% efficient, meaning they generate 3-4 units of heat for every unit of electricity consumed.

Modern heat pumps are very quiet. Most operate at 40-60 decibels, similar to a modern refrigerator or quiet conversation. We ensure proper installation positioning to minimise any noise impact on you and your neighbours. The units are typically quieter than older gas boilers.

Yes, in most cases. Heat pumps work best with larger radiators or underfloor heating as they operate at lower temperatures (45-55°C vs 65-75°C for boilers). During our survey, we assess your existing radiators. In some cases, we may recommend upgrading 1-2 radiators to larger models to ensure optimal performance, but complete replacement is rarely necessary.

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) provides grants of £7,500 for air source heat pump installations in England and Wales. The grant is applied directly to your installation cost, reducing the upfront investment significantly. We handle all the paperwork and application process on your behalf at no extra cost.

To qualify: your property must be in England or Wales; you must be replacing an existing fossil fuel heating system; your property needs an EPC rating of D or above (or willingness to make recommended improvements); and the installation must be done by an MCS-certified installer (like us). We check eligibility during your free survey.

Yes, we work with leading finance providers to offer flexible payment plans. Options include 0% APR for 12-24 months (subject to status) or longer-term finance with competitive rates. Typical payments for a heat pump start from £75/month over 10 years. We'll discuss finance options during your quote presentation.

Heat pump installations typically take 2-3 days. Most of the work is external, minimizing disruption to your daily routine. We'll provide a detailed timeline during your survey. We complete installations to the highest standards and leave your property clean and tidy.

Most installations don't require planning permission under permitted development rights. However, there are exceptions for listed buildings, conservation areas, and properties with specific restrictions. We check this during your survey and handle any necessary applications if required.

Heat pumps need annual servicing (similar to a boiler) costing £100-£150. This includes checking refrigerant levels, cleaning filters, and performance testing. Air Source Heat Pumps are designed for long-term, low-maintenance operation.

Heat pumps: 5-7 year manufacturer warranty on the unit, 10 years on our installation workmanship. All warranties are transferable if you sell your property.

Heat pumps typically last 15-20 years with proper maintenance, similar to a quality boiler. They are long-term investments that will serve you for decades.
