An air‑to‑air heat pump is often the fastest way to lower heating costs and improve comfort — especially in a villa, holiday home, garage or as a supplement to direct electric heating. But to deliver as expected, it takes more than “just putting up a pump”. What really determines everyday results is placement, sizing and how the installation is carried out.
We help homeowners and businesses in the Falkenberg municipality with advice and installation of air‑to‑air heat pumps — from model and capacity selection to mounting, pipe runs, condensate handling and commissioning. A good installation should be both efficient and neat: proper distances, good air spread, reduced noise and a solution that’s easy to service.
Many people find some rooms warm while others stay cold. That is rarely a “fault with the pump” — it’s about airflow and the home’s layout. We help you choose the right placement and settings so heat actually reaches where you need it. And if you want cooling in summer, we make sure the installation is suited for that too (including condensate and drainage).
An air‑to‑air heat pump can also improve indoor climate: drier, more even warmth and better circulation. With the right advice you get a solution that fits your home — not a generic setup that “works okay”, but one that feels great every day.

The price is influenced by which pump you choose (brand, capacity, features), how long the pipe run needs to be and site conditions. A simple standard install is usually cheaper than installations requiring long pipe runs, special mounting or more difficult penetrations.
Costs can also differ if you want extra sound damping, discreet cable routing or a special outdoor unit placement to reduce noise and snow/ice issues.
The key is a clear picture of what’s included: mounting, wall penetration, condensate handling, testing and commissioning — and that it looks tidy and is service‑friendly.
We’re happy to propose a setup that fits your home and goals and explain what drives the price.
It depends on the area you want to heat, insulation level, ceiling height, layout and whether the pump is the primary heat source or a supplement.
A common mistake is choosing a pump that’s too small to save money, which often gives poorer comfort and more wear because it has to run harder. Another mistake is oversizing without a plan, which can cause unnecessary start/stop cycles and less stable operation.
We assess your conditions and recommend a level that delivers stable operation and good spread — especially important in homes with many rooms or multiple floors.
The goal is real benefit: even warmth, lower consumption and a system that feels “invisible” in daily life.
The indoor unit should be placed so air can spread freely and reach the areas you want to heat. A central location with a good “air path” is usually key — often a hallway or larger living area, but it depends on the layout.
If the unit is placed too enclosed, it may heat its immediate area well while the rest of the home stays uneven. It can also create drafts if airflow is aimed poorly.
We plan placement for comfort: minimize drafts, maximize spread and avoid noise in bedrooms when possible.
We also think service‑friendly, so filter access won’t be a problem later.
The outdoor unit should be mounted stably with both noise and function in mind. Poor placement can cause wall vibrations, low‑frequency noise or issues with ice/snow and condensate water.
It often comes down to the right height, proper mounting and sometimes vibration dampers. You also need good airflow around the unit so it can work efficiently and defrost properly.
We help you find a placement that works well for you — and is considerate to neighbors — while functioning year‑round.
A “quiet pump” can sound louder than expected if installed poorly, so installation is crucial.
Yes, modern air‑to‑air heat pumps are built to operate in sub‑zero temperatures, but output and efficiency are affected as temperatures drop. That means they often deliver the best savings through much of the year and may need support during the coldest periods depending on the home’s needs.
How well it performs in practice depends on the pump’s capacity, insulation and how well heat can spread. In open‑plan homes it can make a big difference even in winter.
That’s why sizing and placement matter so much — a well‑placed pump can feel much stronger than one that’s “almost right”.
We help you choose a solution that matches your real conditions, not just a brochure spec.
Absolutely. Air‑to‑air heat pumps are often very effective as AC and can deliver a big comfort boost on hot days. Compared with many portable AC solutions, it’s quieter, more efficient and neater — and you avoid hoses through windows.
When cooling, condensate handling becomes important. You need a good drainage solution to avoid dripping, moisture damage or ice forming in the wrong place.
It’s also smart to consider placement from a cooling perspective so air spreads where needed instead of just cooling one corner.
We ensure the installation works just as well for cooling as for heating.
Savings depend on your current heating (direct electric, pellets, oil, another pump), how much area you actually heat with the pump and the home’s layout.
An air‑to‑air heat pump typically gives the best effect when it can run many hours and distribute heat well — then it can cover a large part of the base heating. If it only heats one room with closed doors, savings are lower.
What often decides the result is not only the pump, but how you use it: the right temperature, the right fan setting, and letting it run steadily.
We usually give practical advice on how to maximize savings without sacrificing comfort.
Yes. To maintain good performance and air quality, it needs maintenance. A lot can be done by you: clean filters regularly and keep the area around the unit clear so airflow isn’t restricted.
Over time, professional service may also be needed — e.g., cleaning the indoor heat exchanger, checking operation, reviewing drainage and ensuring everything works correctly.
If the pump starts to smell, gets noisier, delivers less heat/cool or defrosts oddly, it’s often a sign something needs attention.
Regular service can improve comfort and extend lifespan.
Frosting and defrosting are normal in winter — the pump extracts heat from the air and frost forms, which it must melt. During defrosting, water can run off, and sometimes it refreezes if drainage isn’t free.
Problems arise when water ends up in the wrong place: on walkways, in drains that freeze, or when the unit is positioned so ice builds up and affects the fan.
That’s why we plan condensate and drainage at installation — not as an afterthought.
If you already have issues, we can troubleshoot placement, drainage and possible fixes so it works better.
The most common mistake is placement: the indoor unit sits so air doesn’t reach the home, or the outdoor unit is mounted so vibrations and noise transmit into walls. Then a good pump can feel “bad” in daily life.
Another mistake is treating it like a space heater: turning it off and on or using big temperature swings. Heat pumps work best with stable operation and proper settings.
You also see sloppy condensate handling, which can lead to drips, moisture damage or ice problems in cold weather.
We focus on an installation that is neat, efficient and trouble‑free long‑term — so you’re genuinely satisfied, not just “have a pump on the wall”.
