Bodge Buster
Before taking the ASHP plunge please consider checking out "Bodge Buster", a book designed to guide homeowners through the complexities of air source heat pump installations. It addresses the increasing issue of inadequate installations in the UK's air source heat pump sector. This concern is significant in the field of renewable heating, where a rise in poor installations has led to discontent and skepticism about the reliability of this technology.
