We wanted to get away from fossil fuels - we’re in the process of a battery/solar project too. Happy to alleviate fears anyone has.

About this property

Melrose, TD6

3 bedrooms

Air source heat pump

Installed by Aira

Installing the system

We have an old house with mixed insulation. Our installers from Aira were fantastic - polite, clean, accommodating. The result is beautiful, particularly compared with what some installations can be.

Living with a heat pump

It’s pretty great. Obviously when it’s cold the cost goes up, but we were previously on an oil boiler and I don’t think it’s *more* expensive. Compared to oil the cost is more visible, where we’d previously stick £500-1000 of oil in the tank 2-3 times a year.
