Only 9 years since Ol predicted Ed Miliband would be prime minister, he is sort of a bit right. He may not be fast but he gets some of the way there in the end.
@scottishphil83 @thomasforth Broadly agree with you (I have one - small terraced house; borrowed ££ to fund the install) but prices are falling v fast. Now some energy companies (octopus, BG) are offering installs at v low costs once the BUS grant (£7.5k) taken into account. Some as little as £1k.
@rickymidlands @scottishphil83 @thomasforth Surprisingly hard to get answers to some of these fairly basic questions. @_heatgeek have excellent written and youtube explainers of most of it, worth checking them out.
@rickymidlands @scottishphil83 @thomasforth They don't produce instant hot water in the same way a combi boiler does, correct. That's why heat pump installs include a hot water cylinder if you don't have one already. The effect is the same though - hot water comes out of the taps / showers when you turn them on.
@per_hansen@ACJSissons Hi! I have installed a heat pump in my traditional 1900s house and the house is toastier than it was with gas and I have plenty of really hot water.
@paullewismoney Hi Paul, I have a heat pump and have had my gas meter removed and the supply capped. Octopus removed the meter for free after I transferred to them from Bulb, who wanted to charge me £350 for the privilege.

Can one ROFL about climate change?
Should one?
And if we laugh… then what?

First, this form of climate denial is nothing new. Any @thebabblewagon listeners out there will instantly recognise the name James Inhofe, US senator famous for “proving” climate change isn’t real by presenting a snowball to the senate in 2015 🙄https://t.co/CK3uGB9kb1
Gawd bless yer sainted majesty, @CarolineLucas, and thanks for being so mega. Here’s a reminder of our chat from a few years ago. https://t.co/oBD1OcC6rU
