We are up to temp and lagged.. time to get a whiskey! 🥃

The first Viessmann in Mull as well as the first NewarkCylinders x Heatgeek cylinder.

Maybe my most favourite job I’ve ever done, the place is magnificent!

The build was something else, around 13w/m2 it will end up.

Last week I was at ISH.

My first time going, this year I went with Esbe where I was on a panel having a discussion about the Uk Heatpump market.

I also got too meet the godfather of heatpumps there Thomas Nowak.

One thing for sure was that it was hard to find any gas boilers!!

Heatpump moved this week to
make access for service and maintenance easier and safer.

Loads more faults found as we worked, electrics were terrible.

The company doesn’t exist anymore who fitted it, why they ever put it there I can’t fathom.

@estresidder.bsky.social hi Es!

Vertical water heat recovery, can I run more than one shower into one of them? Or do they need there own.

Well what a week, one I don’t want to relive, but I dug in and got it done in time to enjoy the last 5 hours of my weekend 😂

My latest Heatgeek job with a 5kw Vaillant Arotherm plus.

Running a mixture of rads and ufh at a 45°c flow temp
December 15, 2024 at 4:48 PM
Now I have one with a whole house 60amp limit 😭
December 12, 2024 at 6:26 PM
Even more obstacles now for fitting heatpumps.

The ENA connect was supposed to make life easier, not harder.
December 12, 2024 at 4:47 PM
I’m after measuring u values, anyone know of somebody or a company that does this?

I don’t want to calculate them I actually want to measure them with sensors or equipment,

Out to complete a Heatloss on this cool Building today.. not everyday this comes around.

Another pump on the underfloor heating manifold too.

It’s not all rosy in the renewable sector, many, many failings out there by company’s that have customers with high bills.
December 3, 2024 at 3:04 PM
Completed job.

Unlagged.

A long week up in Middlesbrough.

A Viessmann 4kw 150-a and 300l Oso cylinder.

Stelrad columns and Vita Decos to provide the heating.

1.9kw load at -3°c.

Back up heaters kill performance sooooo much it’s actually scary.
November 28, 2024 at 7:26 AM
We knew it was coming at some point…

Hopefully the storm can be weathered.

Got this from one of my customers.

Solid stone property from the 1800s, running at a cop of 3.67 today.

This is the view from the Heatpump!

My favourite podcast and one of my favourite people in the industry.

Great to see the permitted development and planning rules change regarding heatpumps!

A big change that will affect role out massively, hats off to everyone involved.

Such good fun doing it and having a consistently warm house is wonderful. No more electric blankets, changing the summer duvet to winter, gas standing charge, waiting for hot water, etc. Already looking good on OEM: heatpumpmonitor.org/system/view?...

A Vaillant Arotherm completed today.

Heatpumps always look better in the snow!!

This was for @snecklifter.bsky.social

Coupled with existing a solar and battery set up he now has the holy trinity in low carbon tech!

He also did the internal system work himself.
