Homebuilding & Renovating

In most new builds and renovation­s, heat still represents the biggest energy demand and therefore the area that grabs attention, as it has the greatest potential to reduce bills.

Heat pumps are becoming the go-to option, with air source being the leader. In the right situation, such as relatively low heat loads (i.e. airtight new homes), they are an excellent solution. Biomass (wood pellet or logs) still has a role to play, especially in larger houses with high heat loads.
