Not sure I'm buying the ZeroDisrupt premise from Heat Geek.1

Heat Geek still offer an efficiency guarantee for their installs so theoretically their zero disrupt approach isn't too risky.I found this video offering an interesting approach whereby the system is installed then 'tweaked' after a winter's experience. Radiator changes etc only as needed.Edit: good to see a recognition that waiting weeks for an installation isn't a realistic approach especially to boiler breakdown opportunities.4.7kwp PV split equally N and S 20° 2016.Givenergy AIO (2024)Seat Mii electric (2021).
