Read moreWhich heating suits your home?
A first pointer, without jargon. During a visit we look at your situation in detail.
- Outside air: even in cold weather it still holds usable heat.
- Outdoor unit: a fan and compressor capture that heat and raise it to a higher temperature.
- Indoor unit with cylinder: passes the heat to the heating water and the hot tap water.
- Underfloor heating: runs on lukewarm water, which makes it the best match for a heat pump.
- Radiators also work if they are large enough for a lower water temperature.
