A deeper look at issues of using heatpumps for heating, the different possible methods of absorbing low grade heat from the environment, different ways of emitting heat into buildings, the effect on coefficient of performance and the potential for carbon emission reduction. 5. A few words about typical running costs for a home heating system (if time allows). 6.Any questions The poster is attached as usuall, hope to see you there! Louise |
