The Heat Pump Association of Ireland
The Heat Pump Association Ireland was formed in 2011 as the representative body of manufacturers and distributors of heat pumps in the Republic of Ireland.
​
Our members are committed to quality and the promotion of a high standard of professionalism in the Irish heat pump industry.

Membership is open to all importers and distributors of heat pumps, and offers the chance to join a single representative voice for heat pumps within the construction industry, to advocate, inform, educate and affect policy.

Correctly designed and installed heat pumps are an essential tool for tackling climate change, as evidenced by the Irish government's target to install heat pumps in 600,000 homes by 2030.
