Air-to-Water Heat Pumps
Air-to-water heat pumps are the ultimate boiler replacement, integrating seamlessly with your wet central heating system.
The Ultimate Wet Central Heating Solution
Air-to-water heat pumps are designed specifically to integrate with traditional 'wet' central heating systems, making them the direct, modern replacement for gas, oil, or LPG boilers. Instead of blowing hot air into a room, an air-to-water system transfers the captured environmental heat directly into the water that circulates through your radiators, underfloor heating loops, and hot water cylinder. CPSL Kent engineers are experts in hydraulic design, ensuring that your air-to-water system delivers perfectly balanced, consistent radiant heat throughout every corner of your property.
Low Temperature, High Comfort
To achieve their phenomenal efficiency ratings, air-to-water heat pumps are designed to run at lower flow temperatures (typically 35°C to 45°C) than older combustion boilers (which blast water at 70°C+). Instead of your radiators getting dangerously hot for short periods and then going cold, the heat pump provides a constant, gentle, 'low and slow' background warmth. This completely eliminates the uncomfortable temperature spikes and drafts associated with traditional heating. We carefully assess your existing radiators and pipework, upgrading them to high-output K3 models where necessary to ensure the lower water temperature still emits the precise amount of heat required to keep your rooms perfectly warm.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can it run my existing underfloor heating?
Yes, air-to-water heat pumps are the absolute perfect match for wet underfloor heating, as UFH is specifically designed to operate at the ultra-low flow temperatures where heat pumps are most efficient.
Does it require three-phase electricity?
For most standard domestic properties, a standard single-phase electrical supply is perfectly adequate. Only exceptionally large properties requiring very large units may need three-phase power.
