Blog: ‘Visit A Heat Pump’: Learn about heat pumps from real homes

For those interested by the potential of air source heat pumps but wary of the unfamiliar technologies, Nesta have embarked on a groundbreaking pilot service, aptly named Visit A Heat Pump. This innovative scheme offers individuals the unique opportunity to step inside real homes, witness heat pump systems in action, and engage directly with current homeowners to gain a deeper understanding of the technology.  Building upon the success of the pilot, Visit A Heat Pump seeks to facilitate greater accessibility to heat pumps and foster confidence in this eco-friendly heating solution.

Katy King, a director at Nesta, highlighted that the service would make it easier for prospective heat pump owners to see how the devices worked in a real-life setting and ask any questions they may have.

Impact Goal:

Visit A Heat Pump’s overarching goal is to increase confidence in heat pump technology and encourage its widespread adoption. By enabling individuals to experience heat pumps firsthand, the initiative aims to instil confidence in the technology and stimulate interest among homeowners.

Why Visit A Heat Pump?

Despite their environmental benefits, heat pumps remain relatively underutilised in residential properties across the UK. Visit A Heat Pump addresses this gap by offering a firsthand experience to those curious about adopting this sustainable heating solution. By normalising heat pumps and simplifying the decision-making process, the initiative aims to drive broader acceptance and adoption.

How Nesta Can Help?

Visit A Heat Pump has designed a comprehensive service that seamlessly connects individuals with nearby heat pump installations. Through a digital platform and a network of trained hosts, the initiative provides end-to-end support for visitors, empowering them to explore and understand the technology.

Very professional

Warmer energy are a very professional and knowledgeable company. We recently had our property insulated new heat pump radiators and solar panels installed. We are so happy with the results, the time taken and the very professional trades contracted for the job. From first speaking with Tom, Bethany and Laura...they kept me informed and very professionally talked me through the whole process to finishing up with Solomon who sorted few small issues (ie. Cornice, carpets, light sockets etc) who sorted everything. Honestly we are so delighted with the work done and massive thanks to warmer energy and the team.Read More

I can’t recommend Warmer highly enough

Absolutely Outstanding Solar Installation – Highly Recommended!
From start to finish, the service from Warmer Energy has been exceptional. We had a 58-panel Solar PV system installed along with a 20kW battery storage solution, and the whole process was seamless.
The initial survey was carried out by a very experienced and...knowledgeable surveyor who took the time to explain everything clearly and tailored the system to suit our needs. No hard sell – just honest, helpful advice.
The installation team was brilliant – professional, tidy, and knowledgable. They worked efficiently and kept us informed every step of the way.
Customer service has been spot on throughout. From arranging DNO approvals to helping us register for SEG, they handled everything with minimal hassle for us. Any questions we had were answered quickly and clearly.
We’re already seeing fantastic performance from the system and having the 20kW battery has given us huge flexibility and peace of mind around energy usage and costs for our business.
If you’re thinking about going solar, I can’t recommend Warmer highly enough. Great people, great products, and truly excellent service.
Thank you to the whole team!

Brilliant from day one

Improvements carried out to improve the energy rating of the property. Brilliant from day one. Installations completed by three days as they planned. these will make a massive difference over the winter and hopefully keep the many chest infections at bay. Everyone of their team was helpful from day one,...phone calls, visits and during the installation process. To be honest I can't thank them enough as I know this will make a massive difference to my health. Thanks again

Couldn't have wanted a better experience.

From start to finish, I have had many chances to see a professional company at work. Communication was spot on, calls and emails to update me at every step of the way. The attention to detail in the survey was pretty eye opening and took the lad a...long time to get all the information they needed. They arranged the power supply upgrade with the the power company and the day it was commissioned, they had dates in place to do the air source heat pump, panels and insulation's. The installers were knowledgeable , professional and nice. Felt at ease and safe knowing they were on top of it all, Brian and Chris were exemplary. (Maybe not the best singers, but at least their radio station choice was good). Every thought, adaption and problem solving moment was fully discussed, explained and implemented by these guys. Couldn't have wanted a better experience. Good on them, you won't go wrong using these guys.Read More

Highly Recommended

We had an air source heat pump system installed. The fitters worked in freezing weather to get our system up and running as soon as possible. They were polite and friendly. I would without a doubt recommend this company to anyone.
