THE CLIENT

The project's client, a property owner in the Bristol City area, sought to upgrade their heating system to a more sustainable and energy-efficient solution.



They were keen to reduce their reliance on conventional electric radiators and embrace a greener alternative, aligning with the city's commitment to sustainability through the Bristol City Leap initiative. With TF Energy's reputation for delivering top-quality renewable energy solutions, the client chose us to handle the ASHP installation and heating system upgrade for their property.

THE PROBLEM

The property's existing electric radiators and hot water cylinder were energy-intensive and costly to operate, leading to high utility bills and an increased carbon footprint. The client recognized the need for a more environmentally friendly and economical heating solution that would contribute to the city' s net zero carbon building standard goal. Additionally, they aimed to enhance overall comfort and heating efficiency within the property while reducing their environmental impact.

THE SOLUTION

TF Energy proposed the installation of an Air Source Heat Pump (ASHP) coupled with a new wet heating system and radiators to replace the inefficient electric radiators and hot water cylinder. The ASHP, being a renewable energy technology, extracts heat from the external air and transfers it indoors, providing efficient heating for the property. The new wet heating system and radiators would ensure optimal heat distribution and comfort throughout the space.

The installation was executed with precision, complying with MCS and all regional electrical and building regulations, guaranteeing both safety and efficiency. With the ASHP's capability to reduce energy consumption by up to 78% compared to conventional electric radiators, the client was assured of significant energy savings and reduced utility costs. Furthermore, the implementation of the ASHP contributed to lowering the property's carbon emissions, aligning with the city's net zero carbon building standard goal and contributing to a more sustainable future.
