Meet new energy efficiency standards with a heat pump system
New homes built from 2025 will need to meet new energy efficiency standards designed to reduce carbon emissions by 75-80%, as part of the government’s Future Homes and Buildings Standard.
An interim uplift to the Part L of the Building Regulations (energy efficiency) will be introduced on 15 June 2022 requiring a 30% reduction.
Low-temperature heating systems will be key for homes built to the new standard, with air source heat pumps (ASHPs) working alongside high performance insulation to create warm, eco-friendly homes that cost less to heat and run.

Heat pumps for new builds
ASHP systems achieve some of the highest efficiencies of any heating system. Most heating systems, including gas, oil and electric, lose energy when they generate heat, but ASHPs deliver up to 4 times more heat than the energy they use.
The actual financial savings you will make depends on several factors, such as the size of your home, the type of heat emitters used, the fabric of your home and your existing heating system.
