Professional Air Source Heat Pump Installation Across East Devon
Intro
SAFEXE LTD HEATING AND PLUMBING provides professional air source heat pump installation for homeowners looking to upgrade to a modern, energy-efficient heating system. Heat pumps are a long-term investment and, when designed and installed correctly, offer reliable heating, lower carbon emissions, and predictable running costs. We specialise in properly designed domestic heat pump systems, focusing on performance, efficiency, and long-term reliability rather than rushed or poorly specified installations.
Heat Pump Installation Done Properly
Installing a heat pump is not a like-for-like boiler replacement. It requires careful system design, correct sizing, and a clear understanding of how your home retains and distributes heat. We take a design-led approach to every heat pump installation, ensuring the system works efficiently with your property, radiators or underfloor heating, and hot water demand.
We are particularly suited to larger, more involved installations where quality, planning, and long-term performance matter.
Our Heat Pump Installation Services
• Air source heat pump installation
• Full system design and heat loss calculations
• Replacement of gas or oil heating systems
• Integration with existing or upgraded radiators
• Underfloor heating integration
• Hot water cylinder installation and upgrades
• Heating system optimisation for low-temperature operation

Designed for Larger Heating Projects
Heat pumps work best when the entire heating system is considered as a whole. Many of our projects involve:
• Full heating system upgrades
• Radiator replacements or resizing
• Property renovations or extensions
• Older or inefficient heating systems
• Long-term plans to reduce reliance on fossil fuels
We work closely with homeowners to design systems that are practical, realistic, and suited to how the property is actually used.
Is a Heat Pump Right for Your Home?
Heat pumps are not suitable for every property. Insulation levels, radiator sizing, hot water demand, and property layout all play a role in determining whether a heat pump will perform efficiently. We provide honest, practical advice based on real-world performance, not assumptions or sales targets. If a heat pump is the right solution, we’ll explain why. If it isn’t, we’ll tell you that too.

Heat Pump Installation – Frequently Asked Questions
Are heat pumps suitable for all homes?
Heat pumps are suitable for many homes, but not all. Factors such as insulation levels, property size, radiator sizing, hot water demand, and overall heat loss all affect suitability. A proper assessment is essential before installation to ensure the system will perform efficiently.
Do heat pumps work with radiators?
Yes, heat pumps can work very well with radiators, but radiators often need to be correctly sized for low-temperature heating. In some cases, existing radiators may need upgrading to ensure efficient performance.
Are heat pumps expensive to run?
When correctly designed and installed, heat pumps can be very efficient and offer predictable running costs. Actual costs depend on insulation, system design, electricity tariffs, and how the system is used day to day.
Can a heat pump replace my existing gas or oil boiler?
Yes, heat pumps are commonly installed as replacements for gas or oil boilers. However, this is not a like-for-like swap and may involve upgrading parts of the existing heating system.
Do heat pumps provide hot water as well as heating?
Yes, air source heat pumps can provide both space heating and domestic hot water, usually via a hot water cylinder designed specifically for heat pump systems.
Are heat pumps noisy?
Modern air source heat pumps are designed to operate quietly. When installed and positioned correctly, noise levels are typically low and suitable for residential areas.
How long does a heat pump installation take?
Installation time varies depending on the size and complexity of the project. Larger installations involving radiator upgrades or full system changes will take longer than simpler installs.
Do heat pumps require regular servicing?
Yes, heat pumps should be serviced periodically to maintain efficiency, reliability, and long-term performance.
Are heat pumps a good long-term investment?
For many homeowners, heat pumps are a long-term investment in energy efficiency and lower-carbon heating. When installed correctly, they can provide reliable heating for many years.
How do I know if a heat pump is right for my home?
The best way to determine suitability is through a proper assessment of your property and heating system. We provide honest advice based on real-world performance rather than assumptions.
