Air to Air Vs Air to Water Heatpumps. Now closing the gap.

[Dec27]

The only reason why a gas boiler is cheaper to heat your home at the moment is from elictricity prices being 4 times higher. By utilising a solar battery system those costs go way down. If electricity prices were down everyone would jump on heatpumps. The way to get even better value and lower upfront costs is to fit air conditioning heat pumps and you get the benefits of heating and cooling as well as air purification. Utilise your existing combi purely for hot water . Win Win.

As long as it can produce enough kWh mate.

That’s my main objection with heat pumps.

And like I said, training is free and they are pushing it hard at the min.

Ivor thinks wheels are held on with friction and wheel nuts serve no purpose….

This is probably a bit of a diversion. But the issue today isn't whether heat pumps can produce enough kWs on freezing days. It's how well they control that power when it's mild outside. Poor low-load control ruins the system's efficiency.

Heat pumps main down fall is when poorly spec’d and the temp drops below the point they become useless.

Heat pumps are best suited to a low load, so today they would be happy doing next to fek all. Much like central heating l
