Heat Pump Coming! Big News, Very Sad News, a Grumpy Wife, and Coffee (Obviously)

Here's why we chose a Vaillant aroTHERM plus, what it costs, and how the grant works. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📋 In this video Why electric radiators have cost us nearly £4,000 to run (even with solar and a battery) Air-to-air vs air-to-water heat pumps: what we learned from our last house The £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant and the £2,500 grant for air conditioning Our three heat pump quotes and why we chose Heatable (£18,886, or £11,386 after the grant) Inside the heat loss survey: 3.9 kW heat loss, 5 kW Vaillant aroTHERM plus, nine new radiators and a larger hot water cylinder Running a heat pump "low and slow" with a 35–45°C flow temperature Life update: a family wedding in Piemonte, mystery bites in Corfu and some sad family news Our first iced coffee from the Gaggia Magenta bean-to-cup machine ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔗 Links mentioned in this video 👉 Heatable heat pumps (save £150 with code MISTEREV150) https://misterev.co.uk/heatpump 👉 Vaillant aroTHERM plus https://www.vaillant.com/en/products/... 👉 Heatable air conditioning (save £150 with code MISTEREV150) https://misterev.co.uk/aircon ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ☕️ Coffee links 👉 Gaggia Magenta bean-to-cup coffee machine https://misterev.co.uk/gaggia (save 5% with code AT26095) 👉 Waterdrop A2G Reverse Osmosis Water Dispenser https://misterev.co.uk/waterdrop 👉 Exhale Coffee beans https://misterev.co.uk/exhale ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ❤️ Support the Channel If you enjoy my videos and would like to support the channel, here are a few ways you can help. ⭐️ Become a channel member and get access to exclusive perks:    / @mrev   ☕️ Buy me a coffee (or my wife a gin & tonic!): https://ko-fi.com/misterev ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💷 Save Money with My Referral Links Using these links helps support the channel at no extra cost to you.
