A 7kW Vaillant heat pump in Cockfosters

We replaced an old gas boiler in Cockfosters EN4 with a 7kW Vaillant aroTHERM plus air source heat pump in three days, with the £7,500 grant taken off the price. It now runs the heating and hot water. The unit stands on feet over a gravel bed at the side of the garden, which is a small decision that matters every winter.

A heat pump defrosts itself on cold days and sheds water as it does. On a solid base with nowhere for it to go, that water pools and freezes round the feet. Over gravel it simply drains away.

The old boiler came out, the outdoor unit and cylinder went in, and the system was commissioned and handed over within three days.
