The UK has set a target to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 and the gradual phase-out of gas heating starting in 2025 will include new regulations governing the carbon output of new-build properties.
However, there is no need to worry as by adopting Daikin heat pump technology, you can qualify for government incentives of up to £5,000 in England and Wales, with potentially higher incentives available in Scotland.
Switching to a heat pump not only contributes to a sustainable future but also offers the comforts of a cosy home and cost savings.
By insulating your home and installing a Daikin heat pump, you can reduce your carbon emissions while enjoying the benefits of a comfortable home and financial savings.
How do heat pumps work?
Heat pumps are an effective way to heat homes, even in cold weather. They extract heat from the air, ground, or water using refrigerants.
Countries like Finland and Sweden, where heat pumps are widely used, show that heat pumps can work in colder climates.
And by coupling solar panels and energy storage solar batteries, with a heat pump you could move away from fossil fuels entirely and run your home on electricity from your renewables.
Is it noisy?
Daikin's heat pumps provide a near-silent operation, blending seamlessly with your home's aesthetics.
The Daikin Altherma 3 H HT model specifically addresses the acoustic requirements of urban areas and homeowner preferences, offering reduced noise levels.
With Quiet Mark certification, it ensures a quiet performance, ranging from 35-48 dBA which is quieter than the average dishwasher, offering acoustic comfort for your home.
Will it save me money?
If you're looking to reduce your energy expenses, a heat pump could be the perfect solution.
Consider an average-sized three-bedroom home in the Midlands as an example. By transitioning from a fossil fuel boiler to an air source heat pump, you could save up to £251 annually compared to using gas. The savings increase to £378 when compared to oil, and a significant £915 compared to LPG.

Is it eco-friendly?
When it comes to being environmentally conscious, Daikin's heat pumps are the ideal choice.
The Daikin Altherma 3 H HT model operates on R-32 refrigerant, resulting in a remarkable 70% reduction in the heat pump's environmental impact. This model is suitable for larger and older homes because it produces hot water at a high temperature similar to an old-fashioned gas boiler.
By opting for this solution, you can easily take personal responsibility for reducing your carbon footprint. Embrace the simplicity of making an eco-friendly decision with Daikin's heat pumps.
