I've had two heat pumps for the last decade and can count the number of times on one hand when I've ever felt the need to use them in cooling mode. My bungalow rarely gets warmer than 23C in summer and in winter I'd kill for 23C so occasionally I'll just switch them on in fan only mode instead.

Ha!  Almost the exact opposite for us, although not had it as long as you.

Our A-A ASHP has been on in the bedroom all night for weeks now to get/keep the temperature down for SWMBO.  (Open windows don't work on some hot nights, and let in all the pollen anyway at this moment in time).

Also on keeping the Lounge at a comfortable 21, currently (very nice after hedge and grass-cutting outside in the humidity and heat).

Wintertime:  21 C is getting rather on the hot side for us, but we have used it occasionally for heat as the UFH by oil takes far too long to get going on a chilly Spring/Autumnal evening.
