  • I wouldn’t expect much saving on running costs compared to gas if the building itself is leaky and badly insulated. To be honest it’ll probably cost more to heat with a HP than gas…

  • If that's the case there's no way I'm going for it. I'll be interested to see their calculations and what they can guarantee me. Until it ends up making financial sense for the masses, adoption will remain low. I still can't believe that they're putting gas boilers in brand new build homes. Surely those are a no brainer for a mandatory heat pump install.

  • As of next year they are banned in new houses, right now a friend who builds care homes is saying they are costing about 300k extra to install HP in the homes and the running costs are a lot more than the alternatives they were installing previous.
