Their installation, commissioning and service is similar to traditional gas or oil boilers, as is their operating menu, thermostat unit and heat output.” “Hybrid heat pumps are an attractive solution for installers and homeowners who want to go green, combining the power of a heat pump with the familiarity of a boiler.

Iain Bevan, commercial manager of heating & renewables at Daikin UK, said : “The UK’s transition to low carbon heating is underway, and it’s vital that installers have the skills and knowledge to be a part of it. Hybrid heat pump systems can reduce CO 2 emissions by as much as 55% compared to a traditional gas boiler and have been proven to deliver up to a 50% reduction in energy bills in the UK. The two appliances work together to provide heating and hot water, providing the ideal replacement for a combi boiler as a first step towards introducing renewable heating technology into the home. Hybrid heat pumps combine a gas boiler and heat pump, which is powered by renewable energy extracted from the air. Installers who complete the full-day course will leave with the skills and knowledge to offer hybrid heat pumps to homeowners looking to start their decarbonisation journey and save on their energy bills. Leading low-carbon heating manufacturer, Daikin, has announced a free training programme to help installers tap into the hybrid heat pump opportunity, alongside the launch of a special promotion to drive homeowner demand.īetween now and the end of the year, Daikin will be offering the free training at 11 of its Sustainable Home Centres across the UK.
