Future-proof home heating for properties in Portsmouth

Welcome to AES - Expert Heat Pump installers in Portsmouth

Your Local Hampshire Specialists for over 35 Years

Are you a property owner in Portsmouth looking to upgrade your home heating system? With the rising costs of energy and a growing need for sustainable solutions, many Portsmouth residents are turning to a modern, efficient, and eco-friendly alternative: the air source heat pump.

At AES Limited, a family-run business with over 35 years of expertise in renewable energy based near Romsey, we are dedicated to helping our neighbours in Portsmouthand the wider Hampshire region make the switch to a cleaner, more cost-effective way to heat their homes.

Portsmouth’s coastal climate is perfectly suited for air source heat pump technology. The typically mild winters here mean these systems operate at peak efficiency year-round. 

Whilst Hampshire County Council has its own action plan to go carbon neutral by 2050, Portsmouth City Council doesn’t operate any local incentives or schemes to support private installations. However the Government has extended the popular Boiler Upgrade Scheme until the end of 2027. The BUS scheme offers grants of up to £7500 towards the costs of replacing fossil fuel boilers by replacing them with an air source heat pump system.

We are committed to helping homeowners and local businesses in Portsmouth and the surrounding areas move towards a less-impactful and more sustainable future in a cost effective way.

Talk to us today to learn more about the benefits of air source heat pumps.
