There may never be a better time to make the switch and upgrade to a heat pump - better comfort, lower bills and never having to think about the heating again.

At our Norwood Green Day in June, we heard from Alex Godsell of Ample, a London-based Which-accredited heat pump company. With summer nearing its end, now is the time to think about installing one, before the heating season begins! As a bonus, they can be designed to cool as well as heat your home (ready for that next heat wave).

Alex reassured us in responding to our four big questions:

1. Will it work in my home?
2. Does it make good financial sense?
3. Can I find a reliable installer?
4. Will it add value to my home?

Check out the Ample website to find out more about heat pumps. And if you're in two minds, through the website (https://www.visitaheatpump.com/) you can arrange to visit the home of people who’ve had a heat pump fitted and ask your questions.

Retrofit Works also spoke at our Green Day, a local cooperative which can guide you through every step of a retrofit process, and link you to trusted installers.
