Case Study

Project overview

Mrs. McLoughlin partnered with us to upgrade her home’s heating and energy system by replacing her outdated boiler with sustainable solutions. This included the installation of an 11.2 kW Mitsubishi Ecodan Air Source Heat Pump, providing efficient and eco-friendly heating. Additionally, the project was supported by the £7500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme voucher, helping to significantly reduce the cost of the installation.

Client Background

Aiming to reduce her carbon footprint and lower energy costs, Mrs Mcloughlin was keen to adopt cutting-edge solutions that would improve energy efficiency and sustainability for her home.

Mrs. McLoughlin

“I’m extremely pleased with my new heat pump system. I’ve noticed a big difference in my energy bills, and my home feels much warmer. The installation process was seamless, and the team was professional from start to finish. I would highly recommend switching to renewable energy.”

Solution Provided

To help Mrs. McLoughlin achieve her goals of reducing energy costs and lowering her carbon footprint, we installed 11.2 kW Mitsubishi Ecodan Air Source Heat Pump. 

This efficient, renewable energy solution replaced her outdated heating system, offering eco-friendly heating and hot water year-round. The heat pump uses energy from the outside air, significantly reducing reliance on the traditional fossil fuels and providing a cost-effective way to hear her home. The installation was further support by the £7500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme voucher, which helped reduce the upfront cost, making the transition more affordable and accessible.

Installation Process

Our team meticulously planned and executed the project, ensuring minimal disruption to Mrs. McLoughlin daily life. Key steps included:

Site Survey & Planning

Our team conducted an initial site survey to assess the homes heating needs and determine the most suitable location for the heat pump. We ensured that the installation would maximize the systems efficiency and effectiveness. We also reviewed the existing heating system to ensure a seamless transition from the outdated boiler to the new heat pump. 

Preparation and Removal of Old System

The outdated boiler was carefully removed and safely disposed of. This step was crucial to ensure the new system would have the space it needed to operate efficiently. We also checked the properties insulation and pipework to confirm it was compatible with the new heat pump system. 

Heat Pump Installation

The Mitsubishi Ecodan Air Source Heat Pump was installed outside the home, positioned to capture maximum heat from the ambient air. They system was then connected to the properties heating and hot water system, ensuring a seamless integration with the existing infrastructure. 

System Calibration and Testing

After installation, our technicians calibrated the heat pump to ensure optimal performance. We carefully tested the system to verify that it was working efficiently and that heating and hot water were operating as expected. We also provided Mrs. McLoughlin with a demonstration of how to use and monitor the system, ensuring she felt confident with the new technology. 

Final Checks and Handover

Once the system was fully operational, we conducted a final inspection to ensure everything was in order. Mrs McLoughlin was provided with all the necessary documentation, including warranty details and maintenance information. We also explained how to access the £7500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme voucher and any further government incentives available. 

Outcome and Benefits

Following installation:

Mrs. McLoughlin experienced significant reductions in her energy bills due to the energy-efficient performance of the Mitsubishi Ecodan Heat Pump, helping to lower household running costs.

By switching to a renewable heating system, Mrs. McLoughlin successfully reduced her carbon footprint, contributing to a more environmentally friendly home.

The heat pump provided consistent and reliable heating and hot water, ensuring year-round comfort without fluctuations in temperature.

With minimal maintenance requirements and a user-friendly system, Mrs. McLoughlin now enjoys a hassle-free, long-term heating solution that fits seamlessly into her daily routine.

Challenges and Solutions

Mrs McLoughlin faced several challenges when it came to her home’s heating system. Her previous boiler was inefficient, increasing energy costs and providing unreliable heating. She wanted to reduce her home’s carbon footprint and transition away from fossil fuels. The cost of replacing the outdated system with a more sustainable solution was a concern, making it harder to invest in long-term energy savings. 

To overcome these challenges, we installed a 11.2kW Mitsubishi Ecodan Air Source Heat Pump to replace the outdated boiler, offering an energy-efficient and eco-friendly heating solution that uses renewable energy from the air. The heat pump delivers a consistent source of heating and hot water year-round, drastically reducing reliance on fossil fuels and carbon emissions.  The £7500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme voucher was applied to reduce the initial cost of the installation, making the transition more affordable and easing financial concerns. 

Conclusion

Mrs. McLoughlin’s heat pump installation has delivered impressive energy savings, improved home comfort, and a positive environmental impact. By switching to renewable energy, she has not only reduced her carbon footprint but also future-proofed her home with a cost-effective, low-maintenance heating solution. This case study highlights how investing in heat pump technology can provide both financial benefits and sustainable living for homeowners.
