A 10.5 kW air source heat pump provides heating and hot water to the property. This means that the house has substantially reduced running costs compared to oil or LPG.
An in-roof solar thermal was integrated to the pitched green roof of the garage and contributes to the hot water.
The fact that this property was a new-build meant that installing an in-roof system could be integrated during the build. As the property is well-insulated, a small air source unit was sufficient.
