AIR-SOURCE HEAT PUMP

Unlike a gas boiler, an air source heat pump does not produce carbon when operating. While they do use electricity, ASHPs can be combined with solar PV panels for clean electricity. Air source heat pumps have comparatively low running costs, and with gas boilers being phased-out they provide clean energy for the home. Air source heat pumps also work well with the underfloor heating at Stables Yard

SOLAR POWER

Generating electricity from the sun, solar PV (photovoltaic) panels are a great eco-friendly addition to any home. When natural light hits the cells they create an electric current. By stringing lots of cells together the electric current is increased. The houses at Stables Yard use the latest Hi-Power PV Flextron module manufactured by Bipco in Wales that are designed to generate 2.9kWp.
