How to use your Vaillant Air Source Heat Pump

Heating your hot water

Air source heat pump systems heat the water contained in the cylinder for your hot water supply. This requires the hot water to be timed as you would do with a conventional boiler and cylinder.

We recommend heating your hot water between midday and 2pm when the outside temperature is at its warmest. At this time, your air source heat pump can extract the most heat from the air. Setting your hot water when your electricity tariff is at its lowest throughout the day or night can also be a good time.

Did you know?

Air source heat pumps capture the heat from the air to heat your home more efficiently than a boiler or other forms of non-renewable heating. Throughout a typical year, air source heat pumps provide you more energy captured from the air than you actually pay for.
