Air Sourced Heat Pump.

A person today that I was talking to, that has had a new build home which was required by building regs. to have an air sourced heat pump for heating and hot water, complained that the system was slow to heat or cool as required. He said that he had to have underfloor heating installed. It was slow to warm the rooms on cold days. He recently had the system set to cool the rooms on the very hot recent days. But this morning was cooler and he required heating. Is this normal?

  • A wet air source system in a new build? The biggest bit of bad design possible, because the COP is so poor. Full air con is the only way, and hot water from the heat pump a waste of time, immersion really the only useful option. Operating and installation cost undoubtedly more than Gas, but that seems to be the new normal!
