Heat pump, solar and a battery in Finsbury Park
We installed a Vaillant air source heat pump, solar panels and a battery at a house in Finsbury Park N4. The panels power the heat pump through the day, the battery keeps the surplus for the evening, and the house buys far less electricity from the grid. A heat pump runs on electricity, so it pairs naturally with solar. The battery is what makes the pairing work after the sun goes down.
The heat pump heats the house and the hot water, the panels generate through the day, and the battery stores what the house is not using at the time. Designed together, they are sized to each other.
The heat pump sits on raised feet against the rear wall, clear of the ground so defrost water drains and leaves cannot build up under the coil.

Thinking about a heat pump in Finsbury Park?
We measure every room, calculate the heat loss, check the radiators and the space for a cylinder, and send a written price with the grant already taken off. No cost and no obligation.
