Living with a heat pump

Our heat pump is a hybrid Daikin Altherma, but we mean to run it in a decarbonized way, with the gas only existing as a 'safety net' option in the event of any problems with the pump itself. Our bills already reflect that our heat pump has drastically cut our gas usage down, and we're working on adjusting and optimising the settings to eventually get it down to zero. 

Our neighbours and factor have not had any problems with the heat pump unit mounted on the outside of the communal building. 

Our flat is a traditional Edwardian tenement, with internal wall insulation, underfloor insulation, and double-glazed wooden sash and casement windows. We're in the process of renovating and retrofitting the whole flat, so some areas are still unpainted or missing architrave/plaster etc. We've been documenting our low-carbon eco-renovation on social media at: https://www.instagram.com/project.greengoth/ - by all means give us a follow to see more details! We keep it at around 20degreesC and have been very cosy this winter!

Accessing the venue

The flat is an elevated ground floor one, so the entrance is up a small flight of steps. There is also no dedicated parking space (we do not drive or own a car), so parking must be found in the nearby streets.
