Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about air source heat pumps in Devon properties

Yes, heat pumps can be installed in conservation areas, though permitted development rights may be restricted. We handle all planning considerations and can advise on the best approach for your specific location within Devon's conservation areas.

Devon's mild maritime climate is ideal for heat pumps. With average winter temperatures of 6-8°C, systems typically achieve 250-300% efficiency in winter and 400%+ in milder months, significantly outperforming national averages.

Most existing radiator systems can work with heat pumps, though some may need upgrading to larger sizes. We conduct a thorough assessment and can advise on any necessary modifications during our survey.

Standard installations typically take 1-2 days. Heritage properties may require additional time for careful integration. We'll provide a detailed timeline during your consultation, including any planning approval periods.

Modern heat pumps are very quiet, typically producing 35-42 dB at 1 metre - quieter than a typical conversation. We carefully position units to minimise any impact on neighbours and comply with all noise regulations.

Heat pumps require minimal maintenance - typically an annual service check. We provide comprehensive maintenance packages including performance monitoring, system optimisation, and priority support throughout the warranty period.
