A heat pump for underfloor heating in Hackney
We replaced an outdated gas boiler in Hackney E9 with a Vaillant aroTHERM plus air source heat pump as part of a home upgrade. It runs the underfloor heating and the hot water, and was fitted in three days with the £7,500 grant taken off the price. Doing it during a renovation means the heating is designed with the house rather than squeezed in afterwards.
The unit stands on blocks in the side return, the narrow strip beside the back addition that many London terraces have. It keeps the garden clear and the pipe run to the house short.
Because the house was being upgraded anyway, the underfloor heating and the heat pump were planned together, which is the combination a heat pump runs best on.

Thinking about a heat pump in Hackney?
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.
