An air-to-air heat pump takes heat from the outside air and releases it indoors as warm air — the same equipment as reverse-cycle air conditioning, sized and set up for heating.

From enquiry to handover in Chelsea
Heat loss survey
We assess fabric, glazing and ventilation to size for winter as well as summer.
Design
Units are chosen for their heating output at low outdoor temperatures, not just their cooling rating.
Install
Outdoor units go where defrost water can drain safely and air flow is not restricted. We keep work areas in Chelsea screened and tidy at the end of each day.
Set controls
Schedules and set-backs are configured so the system heats efficiently.
Local points to consider
Air direction
Warm air rises, so units are set to direct air down when heating.
Working hours
Most Chelsea businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Winter output
Heating output falls as it gets colder outside, so we size against winter design temperatures.
Neighbours and noise
Outdoor units near flats — common above shops — need careful siting so noise at neighbours' windows stays low. We choose positions and quieter units with that in mind.
Premises we work in around Chelsea
- Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.

Two rules matter for most businesses in England: GB F-gas rules (leak checks from 5 tonnes CO2e) and the periodic energy inspection for more than 12 kW of air conditioning.

Can air conditioning really heat a building?
