Five or six pounds a day to run a 10,000 square foot house, on electricity and heating together. Less than the price cap figure for an average UK home, for a property ten times the size. A ground source heat pump, solar and battery working as one system rather than three separate purchases.

A 1900 property in Surrey. Single glazed in places, not well insulated. The kind of house people are often told to rule out for a heat pump. Ian's has Stiebel Eltron air source units in it, and he talks us through how it has actually been to live with.

There are hours in the year when electricity prices go negative and you are paid to take power off the grid. Most homes cannot use them, because there is nowhere to put the energy. A house with a battery and a heat pump can. It is the sort of detail that never appears on a quote but compounds quietly over twenty years.

Winter is the honest test of a heat pump. This is what changes when there is a battery behind it: the system charges when electricity is cheap and carries the house through the expensive hours. In our 2026 customer survey, customers with a battery alongside their heat pump were far more likely to report significantly lower bills than those with a heat pump alone. Reported as customers told us, not a guarantee of future savings.

Free hot water through the summer, and on some days the grid paying you to charge the car. It sounds like a stretch until you see how the heat pump, solar and battery are sequenced together on a smart tariff. This is the part of a whole-home system most people never budget for, and it is where a lot of the saving actually sits. Happy to talk it through if you are planning something similar.

What does a London home actually cost to run once the heat pump, solar, battery and EV charger are working as one system? Here is the summer figure against the winter figure, with nothing smoothed over. The interesting number is not the summer one. It is how little the winter one moves. If you are weighing up a whole-home system and want the real running-cost picture rather than a brochure figure, we are happy to talk it through.

There is one week every summer when Britain collectively decides it needs air conditioning.

We pulled five years of UK search data to find it. The spike is not gradual. It arrives with the first properly hot day and it is close to vertical.

It is also the worst week of the year to buy. Everyone calls at once, prices are at their peak, and equipment lead times stretch from the usual 2 to 4 weeks out to 8 to 12. The people who end up waiting weeks in a heatwave are almost always the people who started looking during it.

The homes that get cooling quickly and sensibly are the ones that sorted it in the months when nobody was thinking about it.

Full analysis, including the exact week it happens each year:
