An environmentally conscious couple turned to Plug Me In to retrofit their 1970s two-bedroom bungalow in Birkenhead from a Combi-gas boiler to a Panasonic Aquarea L Series air-to-water heat pump.
Plug Me In, a Panasonic Pro-Partner installing air source heat pumps on a national scale, recommended a Panasonic 7kW Aquarea L-Series that utilises R290 refrigerant with a global warming potential (GWP) of only three. The solution includes a Panasonic
all-in-one indoor unit that houses both the hot water tank and hydraulic unit.
The Panasonic solution seamlessly transitions from a combi-gas boiler to a heat pump, using many of the existing radiators to minimise costs. The couple opted for the Panasonic L Series as a climate conscious decision to enhance sustainability and future proof their home. Seeking a product that fit the home’s size restrictions, the all-in-one unit’s subtle design and wide range of 5, 7 and 9kW capacities meant the unit flawlessly blended into the couple’s kitchen.
Homeowner Derek Softley commented: “It was an environmental decision that we researched extensively. On Plug Me In’s recommendation, the Panasonic Aquarea L Series all-in-one heat pump was seamlessly fitted in our kitchen. Most importantly, we have a warm house and hot water.”
