About me
We decided to have a heat pump as our gas boiler was failing and we have solar panels which makes us more self sufficient. We also qualified for the £7,500 grant from the government. This allowed us to also have the gas disconnected from the property saving on standing charge.

Installing the system

The whole process took 4 months and there were some up front costs. The installation took 5 days to complete. I decided floorboard the loft before installation.

Living with a heat pump

I've only needed to use the hot water system to date. We are a family of two and we use less than 1 KW of energy per day which I'm very happy with. I heat the water overnight when I'm on a 7p tariff. This results in getting all the hot water we need for less than 50p week.
