Vaillant air source heat pump in a pre 1920 property

About me
I had the ASHP installed as my old oil boiler was needing changed and my calculations on a heat pump showed it should work out cheaper. I also was keen to move away from oil. I already had PV so it made complete sense. The install was cheaper than a boiler due to the grant and running costs are much lower. My PV and new battery make the payback even quicker.

Visiting my heat pump
Had a heat pump installed summer 2024 so have now seen a full Winter. Happy to answer questions by email, chat or a visit if needed.

Installing the system

Installed a 7kW Vaillant in summer 2024.

Living with a heat pump

House is always warm, which was not the case before. Different experience (constant rather than on/off) from my old boiler, but once set up it just runs without too much tinkering.
