Air Source Heat Pump Installers Edinburgh

Renewable energy for churches and community buildings

Churches are increasingly exploring renewable energy to reduce both their long-term heating bills and environmental impact.  Older stone buildings often rely on inefficient oil or gas systems, but modern heat pumps can provide steady, low-carbon heat that’s ideal for large open spaces.

We’ve worked with a number of projects across Edinburgh to design and install air source heat pumps that integrate with underfloor or radiator systems.

When combined with solar panels, churches can reduce running costs further, and battery storage can capture surplus energy for evening or weekend use.

Do churches pay VAT on solar and heat pumps?

In most cases, approved charitable buildings benefit from reduced or zero VAT rates on energy-saving materials, but this depends on the nature of the installation and ownership status. We can help clarify your eligibility and guide you through the process.

Regular servicing is the key to keeping your heat pump running efficiently and reliably all year round.  Just like a gas boiler, a heat pump contains components that need to be checked, cleaned, and tested to ensure they’re performing safely and at their best.

Our fully qualified engineers carry out thorough inspections and servicing for all types of air source heat pumps across Edinburgh and the surrounding areas.  We work with both domestic and commercial systems, including new builds, offices, and larger multi-unit sites.

During a service, we check refrigerant levels, electrical connections, sensors, filters, and system controls.  We also review performance data to make sure your system is delivering the efficiency it was designed for. Small issues can often be identified and corrected before they develop into costly repairs or cause your system to underperform.

Most manufacturers recommend a professional service every 12 months, which helps maintain warranty cover and ensures your installation remains compliant with MCS and warranty requirements.  Our engineers can also advise on smart controls, tariff optimisation, and any available software updates to help you get the most from your system.

Whether your heat pump is newly installed or several years old, our servicing plans keep it operating efficiently, extending its lifespan and protecting your investment in low-carbon heating.
