Home heating with a Grant Aerona air source heat pump

Heat pump case study video by Grant UK that may be of interest:-

 

"This semi-detached property that initially had three bedrooms, underwent a large extension and much of the interior was also updated, transforming the house into the four-bedroom home that the homeowners wanted. A core part of the project, included the removal of the old heating system and upgrading it to a greener, more efficient alternative. A Grant Aerona 13kW R32 air source heat pump replaced the gas boiler that was previously heating the property and all the old radiators were also removed, being replaced by a combination of underfloor heating and Afinia aluminium radiators. "

As they have UFH downstairs this will have been a major renovation (as well as the extension) adding a lot of insulation.  Shame there is no mention of this, or what they have (or have not) done to the walls of the original house.

 

It confirms my belief that an ASHP can only be applied to old properties like this as part of a major upgrade.  The major upgrade is the bit being quietly missed out of the "replace your boiler with a heat pump"  mantra.
