Ready to embrace a sustainable future with cleaner, more efficient heating?
Genren are your trusted, MCS-certified installation professionals for designing and installing high-performance air source heat pump (ASHP) systems.
Air-source heat pumps extract heat from the surrounding air and turn that into heat and hot water for your property. They are more efficient than traditional boilers, require little maintenance and can reduce energy bills significantly.
We help homeowners reduce carbon footprints, lower energy bills and provide tailored solutions designed for UK homes.
An air source heat pump is a smart, versatile way to heat your property, harnessing renewable energy directly from the air outside – even on cold days.
Selecting the right installer is vital for ensuring your air source heat pump operates efficiently and reliably for years to come. At Genren we offer more than just installation; we provide peace of mind.
Every installation is different, but it typically takes between 2-5 days to install an air source heat pump. Our team will work with you to determine the complexity of the installation and provide a guide to timescales before the work begins.
Think of an air source heat pump like a fridge working in reverse. An outdoor unit uses a fan to draw in outside air. Even when it’s cold, this air contains latent heat. The unit absorbs this heat into a special refrigerant fluid.
This fluid is then compressed, significantly increasing its temperature. The hot refrigerant transfers its heat to your home’s heating system – warming water for radiators or underfloor heating and providing domestic hot water. The refrigerant then cools and the cycle repeats. It’s highly efficient: for every 1 unit of electricity used to run the pump, it typically generates 3-4 units of heat making the some between 300-400% efficient.
Key Benefits of Installing an ASHP
Installation costs typically range from £8,000 to £18,000 before grants, depending on system size, brand, and installation complexity. Factors like needing larger radiators or insulation upgrades can influence the final price. We provide a transparent, bespoke quote after our survey.

Make your ASHP installation significantly more affordable! Homeowners in England and Wales replacing fossil fuel systems can get a £7,500 government grant.
Key Eligibility:
We handle the application, and the grant is deducted directly from your cost.
We manage your ASHP installation from start to finish, ensuring a smooth transition.
From start to finish Genren exceeded our expectations. They answered all of our questions, designed a system that was ideal for our property, and were very tidy when installing our ‘in roof’ solar panels. They kept us informed throughout the whole process and we highly recommend their services to anyone thinking of installing solar on their roof.
Even after only 8 months we’ve significantly reduced our energy bills and we couldn’t be happier.

Heat pumps transfer heat from the outside air or ground into your home in winter and reverse the process in summer, providing both heating and cooling.
Modern heat pumps, especially cold-climate models, work effectively in temperatures well below freezing, although efficiency may decrease as temperatures drop significantly.
There are air-source heat pumps, ground-source (geothermal) heat pumps, and water-source heat pumps. Each has different installation needs and efficiencies.
Heat pumps can reduce energy costs by up to 50% compared to traditional heating systems, depending on your local climate and energy rates.
Suitability depends on your climate, current heating system, and energy efficiency of your home. Homes in moderate climates tend to benefit the most.
Heat pumps require regular filter changes and annual professional inspections, but maintenance is relatively low compared to traditional HVAC systems.
Costs vary widely depending on the type of heat pump and complexity of installation, ranging from £14,000 to £20,000 or more.
Yes, a heat pump can replace both a heating system and an air conditioner, as it provides both heating and cooling.
Heat pumps generally last between 10 to 15 years, but their lifespan can be longer with proper maintenance.
Yes, heat pumps are more environmentally friendly compared to fossil fuel heating systems, as they use less electricity and emit fewer greenhouse gases.
Modern ASHPs are quiet, comparable to a fridge. MCS regulations limit noise, and we ensure correct siting.
Yes, they efficiently extract heat even in freezing UK temperatures. Systems are sized for winter conditions.
Usually not in England and Wales, as it’s often ‘permitted development’. We ensure compliance with rules on location and noise. Exceptions apply for listed buildings or conservation areas.
Just enough space outside for the unit (wall-mounted or on the ground) with good airflow around it.
