Despite what most people think, the installation of a heat pump isn’t too dissimilar to a gas boiler.
The installation of the equipment is very similar. Here are some elements to note:
The key difference is the temperature of the hot water generated. The majority of heat pumps generate flow temperatures for the heating system at around 40-45°C and hot water at around 50-55°C. Therefore, radiators will need to be larger in size or underfloor heating is used; the hot water tank will require a larger surface area of coil. Some manufacturers offer high temperature heat pumps.
