Air Source Heat Pumps
ASHPs are highly energy-efficient systems that can provide heating and cooling to your home using electricity. They can extract heat from the outside air, even in cold temperatures, and transfer it indoors. ASHPs can significantly reduce energy consumption and utility bills.
Due to their high efficiency, ASHPs typically result in lower operating costs compared to other heating and cooling options. With proper installation and maintenance, homeowners can save a considerable amount on their energy bills over the lifespan of the system.
ASHPs provide consistent heating and cooling throughout your home, avoiding the hot and cold spots that can occur with some traditional heating and cooling systems. They distribute air evenly, ensuring a comfortable indoor environment.
With the correct size ASHP and a calculated system design, a unit can run at up to 500% efficiency which makes it cheaper than gas. The efficiency (or CoP) is all down to design and the type of ASHP installed.
Pipe sizing is very important. Our system design and pipe sizing are customised to suit your specific needs. Buffers or heat exchangers can be fitted to help ensure maximum performance throughout the year. Plus, because they are eco-friendly, you can enjoy cost savings while making a positive impact on the environment.
Homeowners can also get help with the cost of a ASHP installation through the BUS grant. To find out more, click here

Heat Loss
Getting a heat loss survey on your home is essential for optimising energy efficiency, reducing utility bills, improving comfort, increasing home value, promoting environmental sustainability, and accessing potential financial incentives. It provides valuable insights into the energy performance of your home and guides you in making informed decisions about energy-saving upgrades and renovations.
The report will also tell you what size radiators are needed for each room, and as the majority of radiator systems installed are oversized, this could mean that your radiators may already be big enough. Your heat loss determines how much energy is required to keep a room at the determined temperature. The draughtier your house, the greater the energy consumption.
Once your heat loss calculation has been carried out, this determines what size heat pump or gas boiler is needed to heat your property. If the boiler you have is greater in energy output than the maximum heat loss for your property, it will not work efficiently.
Alton and Jones will always carry out a heat loss calculation as standard, and we also offer this as a separate service. To understand more about heat loss, click here
Heating Installation & Design
When it comes to installing energy-efficient systems, the key to long-term success lies in proper system design. At Alton and Jones, we understand that no two homes are the same, which is why we take a tailored approach to every installation.
A well-designed system ensures that each component, whether it’s a heat pump, solar panel array, or battery storage unit works harmoniously to provide maximum efficiency and performance. Poorly designed systems can result in suboptimal performance, higher energy costs, and the potential for frequent maintenance issues.
The right design maximises energy output, reduces waste, and enhances the lifespan of your system.
Benefits of Expert System Design
Enhanced Efficiency: Proper design ensures that every component works optimally, reducing waste and lowering energy costs.
Future-Proofing: A well-designed system can be easily upgraded or expanded as your needs evolve, ensuring that your investment is protected for the long term.
Reliability: Expert system design minimises the risk of malfunctions and maintenance issues, giving you peace of mind for years to come.
Maximised Savings: By ensuring the right capacity and placement, a correctly designed system helps you generate more energy from renewable sources and store it efficiently, reducing your reliance on the grid.
At Alton and Jones, we are committed to designing systems that provide the perfect balance of performance, efficiency, and sustainability.
Our team works closely with you to understand your needs, ensuring that your installation is designed to the highest standards and delivers lasting value.
Underfloor Heating
Underfloor heating is an efficient, comfortable and modern way to heat your home.
By gently warming the room from the floor upwards, it provides an even heat distribution without the need for bulky radiators, helping to create a cleaner and more comfortable living space.
At Alton & Jones, we design and install high-quality underfloor heating systems tailored to your property. Whether you are renovating a single room, building an extension or planning a full new-build project, we can provide a solution that works seamlessly with your heating system.
Underfloor heating works particularly well alongside renewable technologies such as air source heat pumps, operating efficiently at lower temperatures to help reduce energy usage and running costs.
Our experienced team will guide you through the entire process, from system design and heat loss calculations through to installation and commissioning, ensuring your system delivers reliable and efficient performance for years to come.
Battery Storage
EcoFlow IQ 7 Battery Storage Systems are a reliable, sustainable power for your home.
At Alton & Jones Heating Solutions Ltd, we specialise in the installation of EcoFlow IQ 7 battery storage systems, providing you with the perfect solution
for energy independence, cost savings, and reliable power backup.

when the grid goes down. Take advantage of lower electricity rates by storing power during off-peak hours and using it during high-demand periods when
rates are more expensive. By integrating solar panels with the IQ 7, you can also maximize your savings and reduce reliance on the grid.
With long-lasting lithium-ion batteries, the EcoFlow IQ 7 offers superior performance and reliability compared to traditional energy storage options.
You can count on your battery to deliver efficient power for years to come.
Whether you’re looking to reduce your electricity bills, prepare for power outages, or embrace renewable energy, the EcoFlow IQ 7 is the smart choice for homeowners.
MVHR Systems
Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) is an energy-efficient ventilation system designed to improve indoor air quality while reducing heat loss within your home.
By continuously extracting stale air and supplying filtered fresh air, MVHR systems help create a healthier, more comfortable living environment all year round.
Our systems are carefully designed to provide balanced ventilation throughout the property while recovering heat that would otherwise be lost, helping to improve efficiency and reduce energy costs.
MVHR systems are particularly beneficial in well-insulated and airtight homes where natural ventilation is limited. By reducing condensation, moisture and airborne pollutants, they can help improve comfort levels and support a healthier indoor environment.
Our experienced team will manage the entire process, from system design and ductwork planning through to installation, commissioning and handover, ensuring your MVHR system operates quietly, efficiently and effectively.
