An air source heat pump (ASHP) is one of the most efficient ways to heat your home — but like any mechanical system, it needs regular maintenance to perform at its best. An annual air source heat pump service ensures your system stays efficient, reliable, and protected against costly breakdowns. At Reliable Renewables, we specialise in ASHP servicing across Nottingham and the wider East Midlands region.

What Is an Air Source Heat Pump Service?

An air source heat pump service is a comprehensive inspection and maintenance visit carried out by a qualified engineer. It covers all the key components of your ASHP to ensure everything is working correctly and efficiently.

What Does an Air Source Heat Pump Service Include?

Cleaning and inspecting the outdoor unit and fan
Checking refrigerant levels and system pressure
Inspecting electrical connections and controls
Testing the defrost cycle and thermostat accuracy
Checking pipework and insulation for wear or damage
Assessing overall system efficiency and performance
Providing a written service report with any recommendations

How Often Should You Service an Air Source Heat Pump?

We recommend an annual air source heat pump service as a minimum. Systems that run year-round or in high-demand properties may benefit from a check every six months. Regular servicing also helps maintain your manufacturer warranty and ensures your system qualifies for any applicable government incentives.

The Benefits of Regular ASHP Servicing

Lower energy bills through maintained efficiency
Fewer unexpected breakdowns and repair costs
Extended system lifespan
Peace of mind throughout the heating season
Maintained manufacturer warranty
