Competing (?) with Mars as a YouTube star. This vid has been created by my installers, Ecobubl. Please like and promote 

 

You have to stay to near the end, to see the future BAFTA winner 😂

Your installer was a lot better looking than ours!!

Good performance though; I was expecting a cameo but that's definitely a best supporting actor contender 😀

Really good video from Ecobubl. I am interested in the notion of a high temperature heat pump they refer to, I assume that just means lower COP and more expensive to run though.

Morning. The SCOP is targeted at 2.9, assuming the MCS design calculation and an exit temp of 65. I will reduce this temp over time, seeing how my home performs. The MCS design temperature was above what we used to run it on oil. So I’m hoping for a SCOP of 3.3. 
Again the design electric usage was about 7500kWh annually, which I hope to beat.

@julianc

Thanks, so this is your own installation on the video? Looks very nice indeed. Is this high temperate model any differently made or just a regular ASHP with an increased temperature? The COP quoted looks nice too. I would love to learn more about your installation as it looks like it could meet my needs too.

Love that @julianc - you're a natural and that 2022 BAFTA is in arm's reach now.

@phil3822 how else can I help / provide more information?  More than happy to answer any questions or do a video call sometime to discuss further. 
@editor Mars - I think you and Mrs M are far more professional 👍. But they don’t call me “one take Julian” for nothing

@kev-m, I agree. I thought Julian was going to have a "I love my ASHP" type line the way he presented it, but it's a full-blown supporting role. Very nice.

@julianc 🤣 Amazing - told you you were a natural. We certainly aren't one-takers. 🤣

@julianc

Yes that would be great, your system looks good so anyway I can learn more would be good. Essentially like you my wife would be most unhappy at many radiators being changed. I would love to do messages somehow first until after my first quote which is on the 18th then maybe a video call. I feel the high temperature versions will be even more lesser known and Ecobubl do not cover south Lincolnshire. Anyway sorry to spam this chat.

Getting a COP of 4.37 currently. As it’s nice weather 😊
