Heat Pumps in Sidmouth
Air Source & Hybrid Heating Systems Installed by Experienced Engineers
If you’re exploring heat pumps in Sidmouth, SAFEXE LTD HEATING AND PLUMBING provides professional installation of air source heat pumps and multi-fuel (hybrid) heating systems for homeowners and landlords.
Heat pumps are an increasingly popular way to heat homes efficiently, reduce carbon emissions and future-proof heating systems. However, they are not one-size-fits-all. Correct assessment, design and installation are critical to performance — especially in existing properties.
We offer honest, practical advice and install systems that are suitable for the property, not just what looks good on paper.
We cover Sidmouth and the wider East Devon area including Exmouth, Exeter, Budleigh Salterton, Ottery St Mary and Honiton.
Air Source Heat Pumps Explained
An air source heat pump (ASHP) extracts low-level heat from the outside air and upgrades it to provide space heating and hot water for your home.
Air source heat pumps:
- Operate efficiently at lower flow temperatures
- Work best with well-designed heating systems
- Can significantly reduce reliance on fossil fuels
- Are suitable for many modern and upgraded properties
When designed and installed correctly, they provide steady, comfortable heating rather than short bursts of high heat.
Hybrid & Multi-Fuel Heat Pump Systems
Not every property is ready for a full heat-pump-only setup. That’s where hybrid or multi-fuel systems come in.
A hybrid system typically combines:
- An air source heat pump for day-to-day efficient heating
- A gas boiler to support peak demand, colder weather or high hot water loads
This approach can:
- Improve efficiency without a full system overhaul
- Reduce running costs while maintaining performance
- Suit older or less well-insulated properties
- Provide flexibility during colder periods
Hybrid systems are often a practical stepping stone toward lower-carbon heating.
Is a Heat Pump Right for Your Property?
Heat pumps work best when the whole system is considered.
We assess:
- Property size and layout
- Insulation levels
- Existing radiators and pipework
- Hot water demand
- Available outdoor space
- Electrical capacity
If a heat pump isn’t suitable — or only suitable as part of a hybrid system — we’ll tell you honestly.
