A lower-carbon way to heat

Heat pumps

Heat pumps are a practical low-carbon alternative to fossil-fuel boilers. As a registered Mitsubishi Ecodan installer and approved Viessmann and Vaillant installer, Carters can help you understand whether one suits your property.

Designed using Heat Engineer heat loss software

We carry out room-by-room heat loss calculations so the system is sized correctly. Correct sizing and a suitable flow temperature are important for comfortable, efficient heat pump performance.
