🌡️ Heat pump insights: Tackling misconceptions & design challenges A survey by Heatly highlights key barriers to heat pump adoption: ✅ 72% of installers report customers think heat pumps only work in new builds. ✅ 65% cite running cost fears, while 60% mention cold-weather concerns. ✅ Oversizing remains the top design issue, reported by over 50%. Paul Spence, Heatly’s Technical Manager, sees promise in digital tools and training to address these challenges. With innovative solutions on the horizon, 2025 could be a game-changer for the industry. Read more: https://lnkd.in/gEAhgffH

Today heat pumps are the most efficient temperature control technology in history - benefiting from centuries of innovation to cool indoor spaces in the blazing summers and heat homes and businesses in the icy winters. Heat pumps are hot right now, but do you know how they got so cool? CLASP’s Vivian Cox shows how heat pump technology has evolved to meet the energy efficiency needs of today in this short history published by Regulatory Assistance Project (RAP) : https://lnkd.in/ecYHM2Sw

The survey revealed there is still a firmly held view that heat pumps only work in new builds – 72% of respondents stated this was the most common customer barrier. When it comes to installation issues, over-sizing was the lead complaint, with over 50% of recipients reporting this as the biggest problem with heat pump specification.

Heat networks – also referred to as district / communal heating – are a flexible, tried and tested technology that has been safely and effectively heating homes and buildings and generating instantaneous hot water around the world for more than a century. In the UK, heat networks never really took hold as they have in other parts of Northern Europe as we discovered gas in the North Sea and instead placed reliance on natural gas delivered direct to individual homes from the 1960s onwards. But that’s all set to change. A transformation of heat generation technology and products in the UK is necessary if we are to reach Net Zero in 2050, and no single type of technology will provide the solution. Heat pumps are seen as one of the major technology types to realise our Net Zero ambitions, along with heat networks that are expected to provide up to 20% of heat in buildings by 2050. And, of course, discussions continue around Hydrogen fuelled appliances.

A survey conducted by Atomik Research shows a considerable awareness gap in heat pump technology among homeowners and contractors. However, the survey also reflects a growing readiness among homeowners and contractors to embrace heat pump technology as the HVAC product of the future. More than a quarter (28%) of millennial homeowners say they would be willing to invest more than $15,000 if it meant saving money on future energy bills. After learning about performance and cost-saving benefits of today’s advanced heat pumps, 82% of millennial homeowners indicate they would be more likely to consider getting one. 76% of homeowners agree that they are more focused on energy efficiency now than they were five years ago, and 62% are looking into energy-saving solutions around the house. Although 84% of contractors report experience installing/working on heat pumps, 81% express the need for better training to install next-generation heat pumps. 92% of contractors are open to learning more about today’s more efficient heat pump systems to improve installation time and customer satisfaction. “The survey results tell an exciting story: homeowners are not just ready, but eager to invest in energy saving technologies, especially the younger demographic,” continued Rames. “As education regarding this technology continues, both homeowners and contractors will drive further adoption.” https://lnkd.in/gPg2UiN3
