Home improvements - time the house had some TLC!

[AndyRM]

Had them on my old house, got them going in the new Drago Towers on Friday. Mrs D has MS and can be quite poorly if she overheats. Also they work in reverse as very efficient heaters, so during the winter I can economically heat a single room when Im home on my own during the day.

I'll snap some pics as they go on, although I won't be doing the install. The rhythmist in our band has his own firm installing them so does hem for me at mates rates, bless him,

I did wonder if there may have been a health/efficiency aspect to things, which totally makes sense.

Appreciate the knowledge.

I forget the exact figure, but using them as a hester costs something like fifth of conventional heating. They're air source heat pumps.

Running them overnight to keep Mrs D cool is also inexpensive on our EV tariff.

The typical type doesn't require planning permission either. Provided they're a metre from the boundary and the external unit is 0.6m3 or less then its a permitted development, although different rules ay apply on listed buildings or in conservation areas.
