Guide to choosing a heat pump for modernised old houses with radiators and mixed systems.
Old houses often have higher heat demand and older radiators. This means planning must be more careful than in new builds, but it is still possible to use heat pumps effectively if the system is designed correctly.
Government incentives, tax credits and rebates can significantly reduce the up-front investment and shorten the payback period of a heat pump.
Installing a heat pump while incentives are generous can therefore noticeably improve the overall economics.
