As one of our summer student projects, Osian James interviewed 12 households in our local area who had fairly recently installed air source heat pumps – many by benefiting from the free Eco 4 grants. Our goal was to gather people’s varied experiences to help others locally considering this option for their own homes. Osian’s interesting report is now available: https://talybontenergy.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/talybont-energy-heat-pump-report-2-1.pdf The report can help others work out if a heat pump is a good fit for them, what the process involves, the costs and savings and what it’s like to live with this slightly different form of heating from a control and comfort point of view.
