With no mains gas in the village near Settle Mr and Mrs Curry sought a renewable energy solution for the project rather than incur high energy bills for providing heat from a carbon-based fuel such as LPG or oil.
With underfloor heating throughout the home and insulation levels exceeding those required by current building regulation requirements, the NIBE air source heat pump provided the perfect solution.
Fervo Renewable Energy completed an installation of a 12kW NIBE F2040 air source heat pump for this domestic barn conversion on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales.
Delivering low-grade heat to the underfloor heating and higher temperatures for domestic hot water the NIBE heat pump operates efficiently and exceptionally quietly. Complementing the heat pump is a NIBE 300 litre Megacoil hot water tank maximising heat transfer from the heat pump to the potable water and a 100 litre NIBE UKV buffer tank which improves the efficiency of the heat pump in operation.
