Richard howlin- Ronaldo has 1, go round for a cup of tea/guiness- and take ur hat and gloves!! haha- personally I don't rate them. also they best work with underfloor htg compared to oversized radiators. good luck. as a comparasin I fitted a 30kw combi boiler and my gas bill over 10 months was £130-annual statement based on useage- it would be lower but heating is on from 7am-10.30pm

Hi Niall.199,

There are a lot of mixed opinions regarding Heat pumps being used for domestic heating and a lot of the issues come from design, poor installation and the installers not understanding how to set the systems up. I have installed over 300 heat pumps in the social housing sector and all fairly good results and savings.
It will depend on your lifestyle and what you are trying to achieve.
If you would like to PM me I would be more than happy to discuss things in more detail.
