For those on mains gas, switching to a full electric air source heat pump system may not be financially beneficial. However, if you want to future proof your home and protect yourself from unpredictable energy rises AND do your bit for the environment, a hybrid system could be a perfect option.
A hybrid heating system combines the gas boiler, with an air source heat pump. The technology integrates both heating systems, using smart programming to automatically determine the most energy efficient one to use based on energy prices, temperatures, and indoor heat capacity. By making the most out of both technologies, a Hybrid Air Source Heating system can help save up to 35% more energy than the traditional boiler could alone.
The use of a hybrid heat pump takes advantage of renewable energy extracted from the air and can achieve up to A++ efficiency to heat the home and provide hot water. Using a hybrid air source heat pump system means you will have reliable heat all year round with the boiler taking over in cold temperatures and the heat pump taking over when it is warmer preventing you from using unnecessary gas.
Regular Hybrid Heat Pump System
A regular hybrid heat pump system – with a regular boiler, hot water cylinder and electric heat pump – can optimise for space heating and/or hot water. The single control prioritises the fuel source, operating temperatures and demand priority to the heat emitters and hot water store. Heat pump cylinders are available for demand-side response (with boiler, heat pump, photovoltaic (PV) and battery options). Thermal stores also provide a buffer for heating and/or hot water.
Also a regular central heating infrastructure enables greater scope for integration, with radiant heating from radiators or underfloor heating, also air conditioning for the warner months.
Combi Hybrid Heat Pump System
Combination hybrid heat pumps use the gas combi boiler and heat pump to optimise only the space heating with the control. The boiler then provides all of the instantaneous hot water on demand. This approach avoids the additional expense and space needed to install a new hot water storage tank, especially for those combination boiler installations where there is limited Hybrid systems which combine an air source heat pump and fossil fuel boiler may be suitable for a wide range of homes, although you will need to consider whether your home is insulated enough for the heat pump to run efficiently. This is so that the system can run mostly on low carbon heat, keeping your home warm without much input from the boiler.
