Air source heat pumps
The standard choice for most homes in Tunbridge Wells. An outdoor unit takes heat from the air and feeds your radiators, underfloor heating and hot water.
Air sourceOffices, retail, hospitality, care homes, schools and light industrial premises across Kent and East Sussex, designed around actual building loads, occupancy and run hours.

Domestic heat pump design is mostly about fabric heat loss. Commercial design has to deal with occupancy gains, equipment loads, ventilation, wildly variable run hours and often a requirement to heat one zone while cooling another. Get it wrong and you either fail to hold temperature or run an enormous electricity bill.
We model the building properly, including how it is actually used rather than how the drawings say it is used, and we will show you the projected running cost alongside the capital cost so the business case is visible rather than assumed.
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme covers small non-domestic buildings as well as homes, and plenty of businesses do not realise it. Larger schemes generally look instead at capital allowances, the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme where applicable, and the straightforward operational case against rising gas costs and carbon reporting obligations. We will lay out which route fits your project.
Most commercial buildings cannot shut down for a heat pump installation. We phase the work by zone, install out of hours where needed, and keep the existing system live until the new one is commissioned. For care homes and schools that sequencing is not a nicety, it is the whole job.
Commercial systems need planned maintenance to hold their efficiency and to satisfy warranty terms and F-Gas record keeping. We offer contracts with scheduled visits, performance logging and priority response.
Small non-domestic properties in England and Wales can claim the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, worth £7,500 towards an air source or ground source heat pump, on the same basis as homes. Larger schemes usually look at capital allowances and sector-specific decarbonisation funding instead. We will tell you which applies to your building.
From a full building load model covering fabric, occupancy, equipment gains, ventilation and actual operating hours, not a floor-area rule of thumb. We also check the incoming electrical supply early, because that is the constraint that most often changes a commercial design.
Yes. We phase commercial installations by zone, work out of hours where the building demands it, and keep existing heating live until the new system is commissioned and proven.

Air sourceBuried ground loops or boreholes give the highest efficiency and the lowest running costs, where you have the land for it.
Ground sourceWarm air straight into the room, and cooling in summer. No hot water, but the cheapest way in and now grant eligible.
