Join us in the Air Source Heat Pump Association

The HP Federation is the focal point for business interests in the heat pump industry.

The purpose of the Federation is:

to provide benefits to members
to share best practice and develop and disseminate industry approved technical standards, training criteria and codes of practice
to promote the highest standards of integrity, professionalism and technical competence within the heat pump industry
to represent the heating & cooling industry, promoting sustainable use of heat pump technology and engaging with government and other bodies to influence relevant policymaking.

HPF supports Government policy for the Electrification of Heat

The Government has published its Clean Growth Strategy which aims to promote clean growth of the economy while limiting carbon emissions. The only credible way to achieve this is through use of heat pumps instead of combustion to provide heating.

The Government has published its Clean Air Strategy which aims to reduce NO₂ and particulate emissions in urban areas to reduce the risks to health from air pollution. The only credible way to achieve this is through reduction of the use of combustion for transport and heating. This means using heat pumps instead of combustion to provide heating.

HPF Code of Conduct

Promotion and publicity for your industry

HPF has consistently argued the case for the UK to use heat pumps as the most efficient method of controlling carbon emissions.
HPF has consistently put the case for improved RHI conditions and rates for the heat pump sector:

DECC confirmed dramatic increases in the rates of RHI for ground source heat pumps in December 2013
DECC has recognised that its original intention of reducing RHI payments for the efficient use of the ground for seasonal thermal energy storage was damaging DECC's own objectives of controlling carbon emissions
