Because heat energy is being extracted from the air, there are considerable running cost savings over fossil fuelled heating systems and, arguably more importantly, you are future proofed against energy price increases.
But fuel costs are only part of the story.
Unlike gas and oil based systems, heat pumps require no costly regular maintenance or annual safety inspections. And because a heat pump has a reasonable life expectancy of 20 – 25 years (typically twice that of a boiler), the investment costs over the working life of the system are demonstrably lower.
