Efficient, Low-Carbon Heating for Scottish Homes

Replace your gas or oil boiler with a modern Air Source Heat Pump — and access government grants of up to £7,500 to cover most of the cost.

What Is an ASHP?

Heat Your Home from the Air Outside

An Air Source Heat Pump (ASHP) works by extracting heat from the outside air and transferring it into your home via a refrigerant cycle — similar to how a fridge works, but in reverse. Even in temperatures as low as -20°C, a modern heat pump can deliver 3–4 units of heat for every unit of electricity it consumes, making it far more efficient than any gas or oil boiler.

Greenskye Energy is MCS-accredited, meaning our installations meet the quality standards required to access government funding schemes including the Boiler Upgrade Scheme and Home Energy Scotland grants.

Key Benefits

Why Choose an Air Source Heat Pump?

Up to 400% Efficient

Heat pumps deliver 3–4 kWh of heat for every 1 kWh of electricity used — far outperforming gas boilers.

Government Grants Available

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers £7,500 towards installation. Home Energy Scotland grants can add a further £7,500–£9,000.

Works in Scottish Winters

Modern inverter-driven heat pumps operate efficiently down to -20°C — no problem for even the coldest Scottish winters.

Heating & Hot Water

A single system provides both space heating and domestic hot water, fully replacing your existing boiler.

Lower Carbon Emissions

Zero direct emissions at point of use. Pair with Solar PV for a near-zero carbon heating system.

Increase EPC Rating

Installing a heat pump typically improves your home's Energy Performance Certificate rating, boosting property value.
