	RE: Heat pump branding. Clever, contemporary… or a bit too much? By JamesPa, 2 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	I would go for a bit of harmless fun in an attempt to lighten up a subject that for many is either dull or impenetrable or both. It doesn't particularly do it for me, but I can't see it's particularly...
	RE: Replacing Storage Heaters with a Heat Pump in a Stone Cottage By JamesPa, 2 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	How many rooms does it have and does it have pipework for radiators. Is the use going to continue in the current pattern? As I understand it you currently have storage heaters. Is there a reason to ...
	RE: Replacing Storage Heaters with a Heat Pump in a Stone Cottage By cathodeRay, 2 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	I think @jamespa may be onto something here when he says an a2w heat pump may not be the best choice. Because they run 'low and slow' they take ages to heat up a house from cold, especially buildings ...
	RE: battery storage without solar By JamesPa, 2 weeks ago Forum Energy Storage
	Ok I used the wrong/confusing term. I meant upstream of the load side of the devices protecting the load circuits but (to my mind obviously) downstream of the main breaker. I have seen it described...
	RE: battery storage without solar By bobflux, 2 weeks ago Forum Energy Storage
	There's an interesting gotcha about that. Suppose the supply is rated to 32A and the consumer unit breakers are connected using a 32A rated copper comb. Here's a pic, note FR and UK consumer units are...
	Heat pump branding. Clever, contemporary… or a bit too much? By Mars, 2 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	I came across this page from a Heat Geek heat-loss/design document sent to a homeowner and it got me thinking. Heat Geek have obviously built a very distinctive brand around making heating engineering...
	RE: Replacing Storage Heaters with a Heat Pump in a Stone Cottage By Paul1098, 2 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@jamespa You have to bear in mind that this is a holiday home so is unoccupied for most of the year. We do try and go every month but the number of days vary from 3 to 7days at a time. I find the 163...
	RE: Replacing Storage Heaters with a Heat Pump in a Stone Cottage By Paul1098, 2 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@cathoderay I too remember the Airfix models of my youth but don't think I ever had the patience to do a Lancaster bomber.I also remember the complex physical plastic scaled models of chemical plants ...
	RE: Replacing Storage Heaters with a Heat Pump in a Stone Cottage By JamesPa, 2 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	That's tiny. If it's correct figure for annual use and if you actually heat the house with the storage heaters and assuming you are in the UK it suggests a loss at design outdoor temperature of 2kW m...
	RE: Replacing Storage Heaters with a Heat Pump in a Stone Cottage By Paul1098, 2 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@jamespa E7 energy usage seems to vary a lot from year to year probably based on how cold it is and how often we are there.1638kWh 2024, 5399kWh 2025 & 3343kWh 2026. All taken from energy bill on ...
	RE: battery storage without solar By Transparent, 2 weeks ago Forum Energy Storage
	Nope. Generators, inverters storage-batteries are connected to the Consumer Unit just as any other "load circuit" would be. That means they have a protection device (fuse, circuit breaker) in the CU i...
	RE: Analysis of the economics of switching to an A2W ASHP compared to other heat sources By Mars, 2 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	I had a meeting today with a company based out of Sweden and we spoke about heat pumps (obviously 😆) and it was interesting because the lady on the call said that ground source adoption in Swe...
