About me
I want to reduce my carbon footprint. And give less money to the oil and gas industry, which is a dirty business in more ways than one.

Visiting my heat pump
We've got an old house with solid walls in a very strict conservation area.

Installing the system

Selecting the installer was the hardest part. The big energy companies like Octopus and Scottish Power really don't want to install in older houses. So I went with an excellent local firm.

Installation was a bit tricky as power needed bringing from the fuse box. The rest was straightforward. The external unit is hidden away, not even visible from the kitchen.

Living with a heat pump

Fine - but we haven't had it for a winter yet. Water pressure is higher than a combi - very popular among teenagers who like showers.
