All these new heat pumps and tech is great but at the end of the day the price of this stuff is nuts and keep going up in price like alot of people just can't afford these units

[robbiegerard]

Readily available in the US, the heat pump sits atop a storage cylinder made by Rheem and quite cost effective.

Great video. I like the look of intergas heat pump

[reganovich]

Thats great to see..looks like great new tech and good craic as well! Can you do another video about what you've seen and explain the benefits of it but also if you see it as likely to come into the British market and what you think is the most likely to make a breakthrough! Cheers lads!

that Vaillant DHW heat pump is fascinating. I've seen ones with heat pumps but I think they needed air feed? taking heating loop is very smart. How would it work if your heating is off though - guess you'd need your CH pumps working even in warm weather and accepting ambient water temps. Could be super convenient for putting tanks in houses with limited space now so many moved to combi..

Why isn’t the UK developing this tech? We seem well behind the curve

Our house is old enough that it wasn't designed for a hot water cylinder. Other houses have taken them out for a loo and new builds just have combis. Fitting a cylinder is a challenge

[magdalenalenczuk]

Loving the new technology and that you went to Germany and shared your experience... I'd like to know if you could also share your knowledge about Ground Source Heat Pumps? I recognise that the market is a lot more niche due to the cost and availability of specialists regarding GSHPs but would be nice to get some general knowledge/opinion from people in the industry. 😄

Hi. Can I throw a curve ball into the renewable debate please? There are now a lot of high density ceramic storage blocks which store solar electricity or from the mains, releasing the heat to heat CH and HW. There are also chemical storage units. (Caldera are a special case for industrial users) Are they cost effective? Disappointing that they are Still subject to VAT as nor deemed to be “green”.

[Joe-sym]

Which heat pumps do you recon are the best on the market at the moment.

[sniperpd]

Did you see any electric combi boilers that would fit in flats.

Was there anything relating to water-based airconditioning. You touched on in at the Vaillant booth, with the cooling through underfloor heating/cooling. But here in Holland there's a importer of Italian made airconditioning that uses water to cool te condenser. The heat from the building is transferred to the water and stored in a buffer. To keep this water cold one could just dump it or use it in the washing machine or even, through clever piping, route it to the shw line or shw-store. I've been looking for information on this subject. The device used for this is the Innova H2O.

The 3-in-1 in one solution from Valiant is interesting. Hopefully it goes mainstream when we move next in a decade or so.

[grahamastor]

We're building a new home in Spring 2024, what is the latest tech coming to the UK? Any of this "all in one" gear? Many thanks for the great content on this channel.

I've been drunk in Frankfurt before too. Great place.

[TheDickPuller]

The ISH is fantastic!!! It’s over 20 years since I was there in Frankfurt with Dan Holohan, friends & business colleges from across the Pond. The size of venue is breathtaking, we spent 5 days there, so much to see & do.
Germany is a great country, everything just works!! I’m just back from Munich, another amazing city.
Thanks Skater Boy.
Luv Dick Puller.❤️❤️

Am currently building a 6000 sq.ft. House and need to figure out how to heat and cool it… the area will be spread over three floors and there will be UFH on all floors… what sort of size heat pump would be needed and could it do ‘some’ cooling too?

[hutle-]

How about a list of the vendors you visited??

When I lived in the UK over 60 years ago most houses used coal, wood or gas. But no way did we try to heat the whole house. Unless of course you were quite rich. Bedrooms were left unheated. On visiting the UK in 2018, my cousin was a gas engineer every home I visited was heated with gas. The whole houses were nice and warm and heated with Hydronic systems. I then thought how on earth do these people afford to install and heat all of their homes?
Recently I saw a Heat Geek video of large home being heated by underfloor hydronic system using an air to water heat pump. The cost was enormous around 10, 000 pounds. That would translate here in Australia where I live now to about $20, 000 AUS.
My first issue is why try to heat the whole house ? Second why use water as a source of heat? Water has a very high specific heat, you have to pump in enormous amounts of heat to raise its temperature by only a small amount.
OK I can understand having an air to water heat pump for your hot water but having a large house with hydronic system is complicated and expensive.
At my place which is a small home about 100 square meters no insulation. I installed an air to air Mini split in my lounge for about $3000 AUS. By the way I did this myself and that $3000 includes the HVAC tools.
At the moment it is 6 deg C outside and the lounge is 26 deg C the mini split is drawing power at the rate of 1Kw, I am not sure what the COP would be, but I sure am saving quite a bit of money on my power bill.
Why don't more people in the UK use Air to Air mini splits you can get units that will do say two rooms and of course not only do they heat they cool as well. By the way some parts of Australia like the Blue Mountains get down to minus 15 deg C and the air to air still work quite well.

Good to see new tech. Wondering how the efficiency ratings compare to the newer mini split heat pumps that have variable speed dc motors (power w ac through an inverter controller), and can do both heating and cooling 🤔
