About this property

Melton Mowbray, LE14

4 bedrooms

Air source heat pump

Installed by Bright Green Renewables - now Green Building Renewables

Living with a heat pump

I have an air source heat pump with underfloor heating on the ground floor and radiators on the first floor. The house has been super-insulated with 100mm celotex on the internal walls. All this has been retrofitted. I have thermal storage for hot water and heating. I have an 11kW Gaia wind turbine and just over 8kW of sola PV. These will generate about 30kWh per year. I have an electric car and I have diverters to push surplus energy to where it is needed. I am about to add batteries to the system.
