How it works
A ducted system is a type of heat pump unit that supplies heat to the whole home from one outdoor unit, using ducts.
A heat pump is the most efficient form of heating, moving heat through a refrigerant cycle rather than creating it. By using ducts to distribute this heat, central heating provides a discreet, efficient solution for every room.
Our service
As experienced central heating installers, we take care of the full ducted heat pump installation, from helping you choose the right system from a variety of brands to getting everything installed and running smoothly.
A heat pump with ductwork means no bulky wall units in every room—just consistent warmth from the lounge to the bedrooms (and no more arguments over who gets to sit under the heat pump or in front of the heater).
Smart system add-ons also mean that you can choose which rooms you want to heat or cool, so you save money by only paying for the rooms you’re using.

-
Ducted heat pumps use the same inverter technology as single-split heat pumps, meaning considerably lower running costs for energy input.
Heat pumps extract heat from the air outside your home, using a refrigerant. A compressor then heats the refrigerant, after which it’s pumped indoors to heat the air. The warm air is dispersed throughout your home via ducts. This cycle continues, with cold refrigerant pumped back out.
-
The cost of a central heating system depends on multiple factors, such as the size of your house, number of rooms, accessibility, and features required.
