Basically not worth your while unless you are not on the gas grid.
You'd be lucky to get a cop of 4 to1
In very simple terms they work in an opposite way to a fridge.
I'm not on the pc so typing is a pain on the iPod.
Will give you the info soon!

the guy i have to liaise with is a dick head and i cant make sense of what he says

he thinks if he gets technical i will understand i dont know half the terms he uses

basically i have to get some points together for a ad and marketing campaign for an air source heat pump

Actually they work better in colder climates.
Ok for swimming pools ... Or if you have oversized rads pipe work or under-floor heating

My advice is to read your competitions blurb.
Long winded posts on an iPod aren't easy.
In a nutshell they utilise the latent heat in air.
Basically even air at 0c has useable energy.
Hence why a homes pipe work and rad sizes have to be increased to utilise the lower flow temperatures.

Yes they do, but if i can get away with it thats the only scenario i advise them for..........of gas i would go biomass first, cheaper to run and pelletts available from all national merchants........well GSHP really if they have the space......as they will get a constant for a pool............However Hugh CHP is perfect for those scenarios even better if you have a pool ha.....constant temperature means constant kw.....

Can't argue with much of that...but bio mass is a bloody joke and is far from green.just consider how a tree gets felled... Chopped.. Dried.. Transported... Etc. as you know I'm a massive fan of chp ... Hydraulic interfaces etc. heat pumps have a place but much prefer ground or water source over air.

I have repaired a few of the pellet machines,and one think i did
notice due to the sap/resin in the pellets if they are not stored properly they can self combust, a bit like haystacks.

we lost the contract


in other words

we were more expensive
