Air to air heat pump doesn't cool the house as much as an AC unit?
I am about to have an air to air heat pump installed in a room of my house, but the supplier said that in the summer it won't cool the room as much as an air conditioning unit would; in his words, the air to air heat pump will "only take the edge off" an extreme hot day, but not make the room cool. Is that correct? I…

LPG Switch impossible as Avanti Gas derelict in their duty to performing mandatory safety tests.
I am literally being held to ransom by Avanti Gas, who over the past five years failed to perform periodic and mandatory safety checks (so called CP tests and something I pay for in the yearly tank rental fee) on the LPG tank at my house. Because of this, I cannot switch to another supplier (until Avanti produces the test…
