Air Source Heat Pump Installation in Trinity, Edinburgh
Most recent win:
A 1920s sandstone home in Mount Florida, told by others it was “too old and draughty” for a heat pump. We installed a 7 kW Vaillant aroTHERM plus with high-output radiators, delivering 21°C year-round at over 450% efficiency.
“Sean’s professionalism, technical expertise, and willingness to go the extra mile truly set him apart. He is an absolute superstar, and I can’t recommend Aventus Eco Ltd highly enough for anyone facing similar challenges.”

Heating Victorian Villas and Period Homes in Trinity
Trinity is one of Edinburgh’s outer villa suburbs, developed primarily in the 19th century as a retreat for wealthy New Town families. Large detached and semi-detached Victorian villas line streets like East Trinity Road, Summerside Street, and Lennox Row. Stone-built Georgian tenements sit alongside period terraces closer to Goldenacre and Victoria Park. Many of these properties retain original features: high ceilings, sash-and-case windows, solid stone walls, and generous room proportions.
These are beautiful homes. They also lose heat in ways that modern builds do not. Stone walls conduct cold. Tall rooms need more energy to maintain temperature. Older boilers running at high flow temperatures cycle on and off, leaving rooms unevenly heated.
For many Trinity homeowners, a heat pump is the most effective boiler replacement available. At Aventus Eco, we design air source heat pump systems specifically around how a building actually loses heat. Room-by-room heat loss calculations, radiator output checks at heat pump flow temperatures, and system commissioning tailored to each property. Not a boiler swap. A proper design.
Whether your home overlooks Victoria Park, sits near Wardie Bay, or is tucked into one of the quieter streets between Boswall Road and Trinity Road, a correctly designed heat pump can deliver steady, even warmth at lower running costs than gas.

Turning “Impossible” Into Comfortable: Heat Pump Success in Mount Florida
Penny & Monique’s 1920s sandstone home was dismissed by other companies as “too old and draughty” for a heat pump. The high ceilings, solid stone walls, and original layout were similar to what you find in many Trinity properties.
We installed a 7 kW Vaillant aroTHERM plus system with modern, high-output radiators and housed the entire setup in their low-headroom basement. The result: a steady 21°C year-round, over 450% efficiency, lower running costs, and a home that kept its original character.
For Trinity homeowners already running a heat pump, or considering one alongside solar, Christine’s project shows what happens when the full system is designed and optimised together, not piecemeal.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do air source heat pumps work in Trinity, Edinburgh?

Our systems routinely deliver over 400% efficiency even when temperatures drop well below freezing. Trinity’s solid stone villas retain heat well once a system is correctly sized, making them strong candidates for heat pump performance.
How much does an air source heat pump cost in Trinity, Edinburgh?
Installation costs depend on the size of your property, heat loss, radiator requirements, and system configuration. Typical costs in Trinity, Edinburgh range from £7,000 to £13,000 before grants. With Home Energy Scotland funding of up to £7,500, the net cost drops significantly. We provide a full written quote after surveying your property.

Can an air source heat pump replace my boiler in Trinity, Edinburgh?
Yes. A heat pump fully replaces your gas or oil boiler for both space heating and hot water. If you currently have a combi boiler, a hot water cylinder is added. Existing pipework usually stays in place. Boiler replacement with a heat pump is straightforward when properly surveyed. We confirm what changes are needed and whether your current radiators are sufficient.
Can an air source heat pump work with radiators or underfloor heating in Trinity, Edinburgh?
Yes, both. Many Trinity properties already have large radiators that work well at heat pump flow temperatures. We assess every radiator against each room’s heat loss and only upgrade where output falls short. Heat pumps also pair well with underfloor heating, which operates at low temperatures and provides even warmth across rooms.
How long does an air source heat pump installation take in Trinity, Edinburgh?
Most heat pump installations in Trinity take 2–4 days. This includes fitting the outdoor unit, connecting pipework, installing a hot water cylinder where needed, and upgrading radiators in rooms where heat loss demands it. We provide a clear schedule upfront and keep disruption to a minimum.
Are hybrid heat pumps available in Trinity, Edinburgh?
Yes. A hybrid heat pump combines a heat pump with an existing gas boiler, allowing the system to switch between the two based on efficiency and outdoor temperature. Aventus Eco can assess whether a hybrid setup or a full heat pump system is the better fit for your home during a free survey.
Are heat pumps noisy?
Modern air source heat pumps are quiet. Most outdoor units operate at around 40–50 dB, comparable to a fridge. Our team Modern air source heat pumps are quiet.
