#UnpopularOpinion: #Europe should deploy air-con en masse, through reversible Air-to-Air #HeatPumps.

The increase in Energy use for cooling in the Summer will be largely compensated by the reduction in Energy use for #heating in the winter.

@BryanGreyson UK houses are built to retain heat not for cooling air flow :/ We need to start painting our roofs white and also more trees on the street will provide shade. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dfCG2jAr50

Also heat pumps are an energy efficient way to do air conditioning, TechnologyConnections on youtube has a good video about those

It's all done. Benefits include much improved water pressure and hugely more efficient radiators. We have a bit of painting to do and the equipment needs boxing in but that's all just cosmetic.

Ironic to have it ready to go just in time for the heatwave 🌞

Octopus were great to deal with and the whole thing took just three days. Look out for a proper report on our website in coming weeks.

Ah, not all these Japanese fridge/freezer sized external domestic #HotWater units are #Heatpump #ASHP based - the “Ene Farm” with two massive units is #FuelCell based! See eg https://www.daigasgroup.com/en/rd/topic/1768549_56103.html

#Air-conditioning is always a #heatpump.
Usually they can run in heating mode.
So very efficient each way.

That one room refuge or citadel is an idea I applied a while back, but it is also the #refuge against unusually cold days, losses of the usual heating mode, and failure of grid supplies. Doing that for the whole house is excessive, but one room is manageable.

Spotted a few upright fridge/feeezer size units outside houses in Japan but plumbed in, often next to the outdoor heatpump fan unit. They’re for hot water as I suspected, using CO2 as the refrigerant for high temps - the Eco Cute CO2 heatpumps (from multiple manufacturers) has sold over 10 million units in its first 24 years on sale!

Just to get to this point we had a suitability assessment for #CavityWallInsulation last autumn followed by the filling (see the blog post https://www.thepetflap.com/2025/12/16/cavity-wall-insulation/). Then we had the level of insulation assessed again and found suitable for a #HeatPump. We're lucky to be having it fitted so soon. All in it will have taken about six months to get it all done.

Our air source heat pump is being installed this coming week! At the moment our garage looks like this, as the kit is delivered a few days ahead of work starting.

As part of the installation we're having 10 radiators replaced as ours are very elderly and inefficient. This was identified during the survey.

So far we've cleared the area around our gas boiler to allow access. I'm fascinated to see what Day 1 brings.
