Can an older home work with a heat pump?

Measure the demand

A room-by-room heat-loss assessment helps establish what the heating system needs to deliver. We discuss the building fabric, insulation and existing heat emitters rather than choosing equipment by bedroom count.

Look at the whole job

Radiators, pipework, hot-water storage and controls may affect the scope. The outdoor unit also needs a suitable position. We identify the questions that need a site assessment.

Compare running costs carefully

The present fuel, electricity tariff and proposed operating conditions all matter. A single saving quoted for another house is not a forecast for yours.

Ask for a clear plan

Before committing, ask what will change in the house, what the installation involves and how the system will be controlled. We want the practical details understood alongside the equipment specification.
