Air Source Heat Pumps in the City of London
Better Gas Plumbing & Heating supports City of London properties exploring air source heat pumps for refurbishment, plant replacement or lower-temperature heating upgrades. Projects are assessed around building use, available plant and external space, heat demand, operating hours and the relationship between the proposed heat pump and existing distribution systems.

City heat-pump projects often need to fit around commercial use and complex building services
Offices, mixed-use buildings and converted historic properties in the City of London can have heating systems that are divided across floors, tenancies or plant zones. External equipment may also need to coexist with ventilation, cooling and other rooftop or courtyard services.
Better Gas can review the heat-pump proposal within that wider mechanical context. Establishing operating patterns, distribution temperatures and available plant locations helps determine whether the system should serve the whole property, a defined zone or a specific refurbishment area.

Heat-pump feasibility and heating-system integration for City properties
Services can include assessment of heating loads, review of emitters or air-side interfaces where relevant, outdoor-unit siting, hydraulic integration, controls and hot-water requirements. Better Gas can also investigate existing heating performance before conversion where unreliable circulation or zoning could affect the new system.
— How We Work
A Considered Approach to Heat Pump Systems
Heat pumps perform best when the system is assessed as a whole. We consider the unit, heating circuit, controls and property requirements before recommending work.

— Why better gas
Commercial heating experience helps place the heat pump within the wider building strategy
In a City of London property, the heat source may be only one part of a larger network of pumps, valves, controls and tenant interfaces. Better Gas understands conventional commercial heating as well as heat-pump integration, so the team can assess what the new equipment is expected to replace and what must continue around it. That avoids designing the project as though the building starts and ends at the heat pump connection points.

Why operating hours matter when assessing heat-pump performance in commercial spaces
An office that heats from cold each morning behaves differently from a home maintaining a steadier background temperature. Heat pumps generally benefit from considered control strategies, so occupancy schedules and setback assumptions should be included in the design rather than copied from the previous boiler programme.
For City properties, Better Gas can review how the space is currently operated and whether the control philosophy should change with the new heat source. This can influence zoning, preheat periods and the way the system responds to varying weekday demand.
