Heat Pump Efficiency: What Homeowners Keep Getting Wrong

We tackle what homeowners often get wrong about heat pump efficiency. Joined by James Clark (Elite Services Group), Chris Watling (OVO), and Rob Berridge (Rob Berridge Heating Design Consultants) where we explore: How to measure and improve heat pump efficiency. The importance of weather compensation and controls. Common mistakes that lead to high running costs. A huge thank you to our sponsor, Logicool, for making this episode possible.
