Should you decide to move home, the heat pump will typically stay with the property, as it will have been carefully sized and configured for that specific building. The good news is that a heat pump can, in some cases, add value to your property, due to its improved efficiency rating.
If you’re looking at renovating your home, the heat pump would ideally stay where it is. This highlights the importance of planning ahead and where possible, renovating the property before an ASHP is installed.
Not only does this avoid further disruption, but it also ensures the ASHP is sized correctly for the property needs.
Obviously this is not always possible, so if you have an ASHP already installed, then make modifications such as an extension or make fabric improvements. We strongly recommend that the system design is reviewed by a competent engineer to maximise its efficiency.
