This month, together with Mitsubishi Electric, we're focusing on helping Canterbury homeowners upgrade older boiler-powered central heating systems to modern heat pump technology.
Many of the diesel and gas boiler systems installed throughout Christchurch 10+ years ago are now reaching the age where running costs, maintenance requirements, and reliability become increasing concerns.
Modern high-temperature heat pump systems can often be connected to existing radiator and underfloor heating systems, providing a number of benefits, including:
☑ Lower running costs
☑ Improved reliability
☑ Reduced reliance on diesel or gas
☑ Smart control options with WiFi connectivity
☑ Reduced environmental impact
☑ Access to Green Loan finance through some lenders
One of the biggest misconceptions we encounter is that heat pumps can't provide the same level of comfort as a traditional boiler.
Modern high-temperature heat pumps are specifically designed for hydronic heating systems and can deliver the temperatures required for most existing radiator and underfloor heating installations.
If you're wondering whether your existing system is a good candidate for an upgrade, we've put together some information and a simple savings estimator on our website.
