Can I use my existing cylinder when I have an ASHP fitted?
If you’re looking at using your heat pump for heating hot water and your home, depending on your existing system you may need to have a new cylinder installed as well.
This is because current cylinders like the one you might have with your current system aren’t often suitable for the lower flow temperatures that heat pumps work at. Our range of air source heat pump cylinders have a larger coil to maximise heat transfer and heat your hot water quickly and efficiently.
If you have a combi boiler and are looking to switch to a heat pump, you will need a new cylinder as your current heating system does not rely on one.
Alternatively, you may be able to combine this with your new heat pump in a hybrid system, where the boiler heats your water and the heat pump provides warmth for your home. You can also use a pre-plumbed hot water cylinder if you have limited space in your property.
