In this episode of Homeowners’ Q&A, we dive into the exciting world of smart technology and its transformative impact on heat pump efficiency. Joined by Emma Bohan from IMS Heat Pumps, Henri Castelyn from Havenwise, Luke Hodgkinson from Adia and David Strahan, a passionate homeowner and heat pump champion, we explore how cutting-edge innovations are making heat pumps more efficient, user-friendly and cost-effective than ever before.
We kick off the discussion with Luke Hodgkinson, who introduces Adia’s smart control system. Adia simplifies heat pump installations by reducing the need for extensive pipework and radiator upgrades, allowing homeowners to transition to renewable heating with minimal disruption. Luke explains how Adia’s technology optimises performance by balancing heat distribution and identifying bottlenecks in the system, ensuring maximum efficiency and comfort.
Next, Henri Castelyn shares how Havenwise’s AI-driven optimisation is revolutionising heat pump performance. By leveraging real-time data, weather forecasts and electricity tariffs, Havenwise ensures that heat pumps run at peak efficiency while keeping running costs low. Henri also highlights how their system requires no additional hardware, making it an accessible solution for homeowners looking to upgrade their existing setups.
David Strahan provides real-world insights from his experience with Havenwise, sharing how the technology transformed his heat pump’s efficiency and reduced his energy bills. His story underscores the importance of smart optimisation in bridging the gap between heat pump performance and homeowner expectations.
Finally, Emma Bohan discusses the broader implications of smart technology for the heat pump industry. From reducing installation costs to making heat pumps more accessible for homeowners with older properties, Emma highlights how innovations like Adia and Havenwise are paving the way for widespread adoption of renewable heating solutions.
And a big thank you to IMS Heat Pumps for sponsoring this episode.
