What is the difference between monobloc and split system air source heat pumps?
4 Sep 2023
The main difference between a monobloc air source heat pump and a split system air source heat pump is that the monobloc heat pump has all the necessary components for an air source heat pump contained within one single unit. The split system, as the name suggests, splits the components between two units. This leads to differences in size, flexibility, noise emitted and installation requirements.

What is a split system air source heat pump?
27 Aug 2023
A split system air source heat pump has two parts to the unit with the outdoor unit placed outside to capture energy from the air and the indoor unit inside the building to use that energy to heat water for the dwelling. They are linked together by two pipes carrying the refrigerant – one in liquid and one in gaseous/vapour form.

Which technologies are the most viable to deliver the decarbonisation of heating?
9 Jun 2022
To deliver the decarbonisation of heating, we should deploy a wide range of technologies that can help to eliminate the use of high carbon fossil fuels. Electric solutions, especially those that utilise renewable energy, offer a viable route to ensuring our homes are heated in a low carbon way. To successfully transfer to electrical infrastructures and make the necessary adjustments that bring us closer to achieving the UK’s 2050 net zero target, the industry will need a clear plan with achievable interim targets.
