Clearly highlights the challenges facing the country in achieving net zero. This is a great insight into the availability of systems to meet different and more difficult situations. The intergation of solar pv is also a major factor going forward as you have so brilliantly demonstrated in your own home! Well done to you for your ongoing commitment.

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank You.

Didn't know there was a hybrid option, looks good 👌🏼

[@AllenHart999]

Thank you for watching.

Allen, major question i think needs answering (do a video). Is comparison between efficient boiler vs Hybrid Boiler. Cheapest way to heat a house surely will always ve gas due to the price. Need a video explaining for us less well informed

[@ZippedAuto]

The problem with fitting the lesser known boilers i.e. Alpha's, navien, etc is servicing. Usually the seals cost more than your Worcester, baxi, vaillants and us servicing engineers are less likely to have the parts on the van. The outcome of this situation is the engineer always replacing every seal because they've bought them for the service just so will need to use them otherwise the seals won't get used for months otherwise. This means the servicing cost will be higher than servicing a more common boiler

Could this heat pump be fitted to a 4 year old Viessmann vitodens 200 combi boiler and can it operate with out the need for a water cylinder. I’m guessing the combi will always do DHW but when cheapest the heat pump would run the central heating ?

[@jamesmurphy9195]

Hi Allen, I have a 9kW swimming pool heat pump. Could this be adapted & used as a hybrid heat pump to assist with my existing boiler to heat my house?

[@timjay69]

How many bathrooms, would a Combi be enough for hot water or would you add a cylinder.

[@AllenHart999]

Normally one or maybe two taps but it depends on many things. Thanks.

[@Ajtreversh]

Can this system (combi) run a minimum of two showers at the same time?

[@ultrasteve9031]

what are the hybrid boilers and heat pumps for oil installations? also, a 4 kw heat pump doesn't sound very big for that property, how much will it actually stop the gas boiler coming on?

[@AllenHart999]

Not sure about oil. Sorry.

[@ACFPlumbingHeatingAndCooling]

Grant heat pumps have the oil hybrid heat pump

[@cryptostu4406]

Hi,Allan doing a selfbuild with a alpha boiler ASHP fancy doing a video

[@mgbroadsterJ]

How does the gas boiler know when to help the heat pump ?

[@ZippedAuto]

I'm guessing the sytem will measure all the temperatures such as the flow and return and the outside temperature then send a signal to the boiler if those temperatures reach certain parameters

[@mgbroadsterJ]

is the boiler and heat pump working on weathe comp ?

[@AllenHart999]

Yes.

[@peterreid4567]

How can I contact you to ask a question on a different subject. Thanks Pete

[@AllenHart999]

Just ask questions here, i will try and answer as many as possible, Others can also see the questions. Thanks.

[@dbat3291]

Allen, does it work just with combi?

[@AllenHart999]

Yes, It works with the Alpha combi boiler.

[@adejohnston6831]

The question is did they bother lagging the pipes under the floor ?

[@AllenHart999]

Yes

[@elringoRS6]

Can it support a daily gas tracker tariff?

[@AllenHart999]

I don't expect it would. I am not sure though. Thanks.

[@Robbiewa-bg4lu]

Hybrid sounds like it could be feasible for many people. So long as the Government doesn’t ban gas.

[@anthonygreenwood4486]

Alpha wow What’s next you fitting a raven heat, 450ppm on them alpha’s ooooffff no Ta

[@AllenHart999]

I have installed most brands over the years.

[@KavanOBrien]

Can’t find any information in regards to how much it cost to run comparison = heat pump - gas boiler , hear lots with its 160% or 400% more efficient lots of that stuff , heating one house last years bills October to March, month by month = heat pump bills, gas bills. No good buying a heat pump if bills are twice three or four times higher, if it’s cheaper, I will order mine tomorrow if more expensive buy a wood burner.

[@AllenHart999]

The control works out which is cheapest to run based on customer fuel prices.

[@KavanOBrien]

@@AllenHart999 Wow that answer is borderline still in the dark then, need 50p for the meter.

[@patg4362]

Sorry but the guy saying if electricity becomes cheap because of renewable energy is living in cloud cuckoo land

[@AllenHart999]

My Electricity is cheaper than my gas

[@ne21]

⁠@@AllenHart999 My electricity is 4.5 times more expensive than my gas. Just got a new Worcester Greenstar combi boiler.🙂
