Samsung air source heat pump in a 1983 - 2002 property

Matthew

We are keen to live more sustainably, and realised a heat pump would drastically reduce the carbon footprint of our heating and hot water. In any case our gas boiler was old and in need of replacement. We'd like others to more easily find out what having a heat pump is like.

About this property

Winchester, SO22

4 bedrooms

Air source heat pump

Installed by Infinity Energy Services

Installing the system

The installation included replacing the gravity-fed water tank with a pressurised cylinder, replacing a few radiators and the shower. The work was done with a lot of attention to detail and mostly completed in 4 days Tues-Fri so everything was running by the end of the week. Then some adjustments and pipe insulation the following Monday.

Living with a heat pump

The house has been heated adequately, and I haven't needed to run it at full capacity. One time I allowed the house temperature to drop (while away) to 13 degrees, and it took a whole day to get back to a comfortable temperature (though it would probably have been a bit quicker at full capacity). The programming unit is very useful, but not quite as flexible as I would like.
