	RE: Renewables & Heat Pumps in the News By JamesPa, 1 day ago Forum Well & Truly Off The Grid
	@lucia Again I agree with much of what you say and in particular your last sentence. Furthermore I also think that there is a very strong economic argument for decarbonisation. If you are dependent...
	RE: Heat Pumps Without Grants: Would You Have Installed One & Will You Now? By Judith, 1 day ago Forum Government Schemes, Regulations, Planning & Organisations
	Quite honestly I don’t know. We’re very pleased with our system, and are gas free, so we save money each year. But the payback time (at current prices) is about 10years. Without the grant the payback ...
	RE: Heat Pumps Without Grants: Would You Have Installed One & Will You Now? By davidnolan22, 1 day ago Forum Government Schemes, Regulations, Planning & Organisations
	There is no way I would have installed heat pump without BUS. Even with BUS I wish I’d kept a gas boiler. When I put in my heat pump, boilers were being phased out. That changed 1/2 way through our b...
	RE: Heat Pumps Without Grants: Would You Have Installed One & Will You Now? By Morgan, 1 day ago Forum Government Schemes, Regulations, Planning & Organisations
	I moved to a house in a rural location in February 2021 without any CH or access to gas. Heating was basically supplied via an oil-fired AGA, a log burner in the lounge, and some scattered, VERY unde...
	RE: Renewables & Heat Pumps in the News By Lucia, 2 days ago Forum Well & Truly Off The Grid
	@jamespa The point I am trying to make is that Government is about difficult, sometimes impossible, choices and joining the chorus of 'they are stupid' (which seems to be the only response we now have...
	RE: Installer Fitted 9kW Instead of 11kW Heat Pump and Changed MCS Paperwork - What do I do? By JamesPa, 2 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Honestly, unless you enjoy this sort of thing (some people do which is fair enough), I really wouldn't bother at this stage, it will achieve nothing except further to exhaust you. I would instead con...
	RE: Installer Fitted 9kW Instead of 11kW Heat Pump and Changed MCS Paperwork - What do I do? By MairiA, 2 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	My MP is Dr Zubir Ahmed, Labour, Glasgow South West. And this is the reply from MCS to my follow up query about the original heat loss calculation and the production of a new MCS Certificate. "We do n...
	RE: Heat Pumps Without Grants: Would You Have Installed One & Will You Now? By JamesPa, 2 days ago Forum Government Schemes, Regulations, Planning & Organisations
	Slightly difficult question because, if funding is removed, prices will fall, albeit not by £7500. In addition some artificial constraints and the levy imposed by MCS will disappear. However For me...
	RE: Heat Pumps Without Grants: Would You Have Installed One & Will You Now? By Bash, 2 days ago Forum Government Schemes, Regulations, Planning & Organisations
	We are due an install, hopefully in the next 6-8 weeks. Our install will be about £11,000, so £3500 after the grant. For me and I can imagine countless others, ripping out the gas heating system and r...
	RE: Renewables & Heat Pumps in the News By JamesPa, 2 days ago Forum Well & Truly Off The Grid
	@lucia There are many elements of your post above that I would definitely agree with! What I would not agree with is describing the government as 'stupid'. For the avoidance of doubt and to avoid p...

	The CEO of MCS has appeared before the Select Committee on several occasions already.
	RE: New Fogstar 15.5kWh upright solution By Bash, 2 days ago Forum Energy Storage
	@batpred Well you must be one of the very few dissatisfied Fogstar customers. I had plenty of contact with their customer support having ordered 3 packs from them. One case had a...
