About me
I think the heat pump which provides several times the heat it consumes is a clear winner. If these visits can increase confidence and acceptance of this new technology then they are well worth it and I am pleased to do them.
The heat pump is a more controllable, quieter and pleasant way of heating the house than the gas boiler it replaced.

Hemel Hempstead, HP3
3 bedrooms
Air source heat pump
Installed by Octopus Energy
EPC rating: C (78 %)
Cost of energy bills per year: £90 / month dual fuel
Installing the system
Changes made to the property:
- Six of the nine radiators were replaced with new ones as part of the installation,
- an ornamental gas fire in the lounge was removed and the chimney blocked up, and it has now been capped.
- the cold water and header tank in the loft were removed and the system now operates at mains pressure. Following this I had extra loft insulation particularly in the areas of the loft where the tanks were.
Living with a heat pump
Heat Pump model EDLA08EV3.
I made a video about the installation which gives alot of detail about how well it works. Its called "Heat without the Guilt - My Heat Pump Story" and you can find it on YouTube at https://youtu.be/7jg6BltGhlU
