Detached property, hosted by Steph

Our system was commissioned in October 2024 by Elite Renewables, a specialist installer based in Croydon. The installation took about two weeks, and included upgrading 3 radiators (all our space heating is via conventional radiators).

We also modernised our heating and hot water system as part of the works, moving to a 300L unvented cylinder in place of old water tanks in the loft and a vented cylinder with an extra pump. Got lots of lovely space back, and things run more quietly now! We're fully removing gas from the property (just waiting for the meter to be removed now), switching to electricity for cooking too.

Previously, we spent time improving our insulation in the cavity walls, loft, windows and switching to a solid roof on our former conservatory.

So far so good. It’s been early days but the house is reliably warm! We’re learning how to run the system most efficiently, and tune it so the house is the right temperature at the right times.
