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?

  • 3 kW x 24 hours = 72 kWH


    200% efficiency equates to 144 kWH.


    500% efficiency equates to 360 kWH.


    So with adequate insulation and correct design they will do the job, but they cannot just be retro fitted to existing heating systems in cold and draughty homes.
