Many homeowners are beginning to look into the possibility of using renewable energy to power and heat their homes. Whilst solar panels remain a popular choice, another ideal option for British homeowners is renewable heat pump technology, such as the Panasonic Aquarea.

This was the choice taken by Debra Crome from Devon who has recently installed an Aquarea 14kW High Connectivity Heat Pump with 300 litre water cylinder in her home.

A friend of ours was building their home from scratch and were trying to make their home as eco-friendly as possible, my husband was helping out with the project and we were very intrigued at the technology they were installing to heat the hot water and for heating. said Debra. We explored more about the air heat pump solution they had installed and it seemed like common sense and a fantastic solution for us.

Debra and her family discussed their requirements with heat pump suppliers, Energy Specialists, who advised them on the best solution for their home. The company then designed a heating system to suit their needs and it was then installed through Energy Specialist's network of professional, MCS accredited installers.

The Panasonic Aquarea air-to-water heat pump is an innovative solution that makes use of the inexhaustible energy found in the air, converting this into power to supply hot water and heating for the home. The Aquarea is a sustainable alternative to oil, LPG and electric heating systems, by switching it offers both environmental and financial benefits.

An extremely compact plug and play heating system the Aquarea heat pump will be able to fulfil heating demands even in temperatures as low as -20C. Independent tests have also shown that Panasonic's air-to-water heat pump is capable of saving up to 78% on heating expenses, and far more efficient than fuel-fired boilers, gas boilers and electric heaters.

It was these benefits that appealed to Debra and her family. It's easy to maintain, economical, environmentally friendly it's the perfect solution, explained Debra. We had a house full of family and friends staying for a long weekend recently which tested the system. We've yet to run out of hot water we can run a bath followed by a shower we have a power shower supplied by mains water and it supplies copious amounts of hot water.

With the ever increasing threat of rising fuel costs, switching to a sustainable heating source, like an air- heat pump is proving to be a popular alternative for many home owners. Panasonic's new heat pumps are designed in response to the demand for low consumption heating, with high efficiency and low running costs.

Debra is certainly reaping the benefits of switching; The Aquarea system allows us to control exactly how much energy we're using over the course of 12 months. With our old oil based system we were totally at the mercy of the charges imposed by the energy supplier. We can now predict our energy costs as we can shop around for an energy supplier that can give us a good price for our electricity. The unit is so economical and is saving us between £600-£900 per year, just to do exactly what our old oil-fired system did before.

It's amazing how many people we talk to who are in the same boat as we were and don't know about this heating solution. We're trying to convert them to what is a very economical and straightforward approach to heating your home and hot water. concludes Debra.

Panasonic's Aquarea is the most comprehensive, versatile and cost-effective range of air-to-water heat pumps on the market. It features heat pumps from 7 to 16 kW, single and three-phase alongside stand-alone and split-units.
