The Benefits of Heat Pumps: Lower Costs, Increased Efficiency, and Reduced Emissions

⚡️The efficiency of our heat pump has increased from a COP of 2.96 to a COP of 3.15, meaning we get more heat from less electricity.

💰Despite the high energy costs, running a heat pump is more cost-effective than a gas boiler. It saved us £194 in the last 12 months.

🌍Our heat pump has reduced our heating emissions by 66% and saved over 1.5 tons of CO2, contributing to a greener future.

🔋With the addition of solar panels and a battery, the cost of running our heat pump could be further reduced, and our system could become even more environmentally friendly.

🏠Installing a heat pump in a Victorian Terrace home has been a successful and cost-effective solution for reducing emissions and saving money.

Is running a heat pump more expensive than a gas boiler?

—No, running a heat pump is more cost-effective than a gas boiler, especially considering the current high energy prices. In the last 12 months, we saved £194 compared to a gas boiler.

How much has the efficiency of your heat pump improved?

—The efficiency of our heat pump has increased from a COP of 2.96 to a COP of 3.15. This means that for every unit of electricity we've used, we've got three units of heat out.

How much have your heating emissions reduced?

—Over the last two years, our heat pump has reduced our heating emissions by 66%. In total, it has saved over 1.5 tons of CO2.

Can solar panels and a battery further reduce the cost of running your heat pump?

—Yes, with the addition of solar panels and a battery, the cost of running our heat pump could be further reduced, and our system could become even more environmentally friendly.

Is a heat pump suitable for all types of homes?

—While individual circumstances may vary, a heat pump can be a cost-effective and eco-friendly solution for heating in various types of homes, including Victorian Terrace homes like ours.
