Alternate to ASHP

[mikeh]

Hello,

I was thinking about installing an ASHP for Under floor heating and DHW and came across the following device as a possible alternative;

w w w dot energie dot pt slash english

This is sold in the UK by ;

w w w dot thermalreflections dot co dot uk

(sorry about the links but I cannot post URLs !!!)

and they quoted approx 3000 pounds installed for system and HW tank.

I´m wondering if anyone has had any experience with these devices, or any comments on their feasability ?

Many thanks
Mike Harwood

Its a solar assisted air source heat pump.
When the sun is belting down, better than a standard heat pump, but when the sun is not it is worse. a function of surface area. Mr Carnot has a lot to answer for!
