Hi
I get occasional promo emails from Alto Energy. The latest one is about the RHI and seven months left before it stops.
I remember them years ago under a different name and have always considered them for ASHP installation.
My all electric property (3 bed semi detached) is a real challenge for updating heating which is electric warm air and obviously no radiators.
It’s possible that the duct routes could be used for the pipes.

I’m close to going for air to air or Aircon and have had a couple of quotes, £13k being the highest.
I’m aware that any wet system quote would probably exceed that but the RHI while it’s available, might be an option.
After all, it’ll be a ‘normal’ central heating system which will heat the water too. Immersion heater at the moment.
Just getting some ideas before having a survey.
Any help appreciated.
