How Do Midea Heat Pumps Work?


Midea ASHPs extract free heat energy from the air and convert it into warmth for your home. The process works in four simple steps:

1️⃣ Air Absorption – The heat pump absorbs heat from the outdoor air.
2️⃣ Compression & Heating – A refrigerant compresses the heat, raising the temperature.
3️⃣ Heat Transfer – The heated refrigerant circulates through your home’s radiators, underfloor heating, or hot water system.
4️⃣ Continuous Efficiency – Even in cold weather, the system efficiently maintains warmth.

💡 Did You Know? Midea heat pumps are quieter than a standard gas boiler, making them ideal for residential areas.

 

Why Now is the Best Time to Switch to a Heat Pump


With rising gas prices and UK government targets to phase out gas boilers by 2035, switching to an air source heat pump is a smart, future-proof investment.

✔ £7,500 Government Grant – The Boiler Upgrade Scheme helps homeowners transition to heat pumps with zero VAT on installations.
✔ Reduce Your Carbon Footprint – Heat pumps cut carbon emissions by up to 70% compared to gas heating.
✔ Compatible with Solar PV & Battery Storage – Combine with solar panels and battery storage for even greater savings and energy independence.
