How much does an air-to-air heat pump cost in Glasgow?

In Glasgow, guide prices run from about £1,595 to £3,795 per zone, plus VAT. A typical job (shop or office heated and cooled by 2–4 units) usually comes to £4,250–£12,950 plus VAT. The fixed price follows a free survey.

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.

Working in Glasgow

We cover all of Glasgow, from the centre to the business parks and industrial estates on its edges. Each town below has its own page with local guide prices.

Postcode districts we cover include G1, G11, G14, G20, G32, G43, G51 and G76. Buildings across Glasgow range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.

Included as standard

  • Heat loss and heat gain assessment
  • Outdoor units positioned for air flow and defrost drainage
  • Controls with schedules and set-back temperatures
  • Commissioning and handover
  • Running-cost guidance against your current heating

From enquiry to handover in Glasgow

  1. Heat loss survey

    We assess fabric, glazing and ventilation to size for winter as well as summer.

  2. Design

    Units are chosen for their heating output at low outdoor temperatures, not just their cooling rating.

  3. Install

    Outdoor units go where defrost water can drain safely and air flow is not restricted. We keep work areas in Glasgow screened and tidy at the end of each day.

  4. Set controls

    Schedules and set-backs are configured so the system heats efficiently.

Points to plan for in Glasgow

Winter output

Heating output falls as it gets colder outside, so we size against winter design temperatures.

Shared buildings

In multi-let buildings, roof space, risers and plant areas are often controlled by a managing agent. We work to their permits and method-statement requirements.

Air direction

Warm air rises, so units are set to direct air down when heating.

Leased premises

If your Glasgow premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.

Who we work with in Glasgow

  • Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.
  • Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.

Compliance in Scotland: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and systems with an effective output of 12 kW or more need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).

Your questions answered

How much does an air-to-air heat pump cost in Glasgow?

Guide prices in Glasgow run from about £1,595 to £3,795 per zone, plus VAT. A typical job (shop or office heated and cooled by 2–4 units) costs £4,250–£12,950 plus VAT. We fix the price in writing after a free survey.

Does it work in freezing weather?

Modern units are designed to heat well below freezing, though output reduces as it gets colder. We size for that.

Do outdoor units ice up?

They frost in cold, damp weather and run short defrost cycles automatically. Drainage is planned so the water does not freeze on a path.
