Eco Credentials

This home was an originally a 1960's dormer bungalow which has been totally stripped back and reconfigured, extended and rebuilt, insulating floors, wall and ceilings to modern standards. There is LED lighting throughout and the gas boiler has been replaced with a Mitsubishi 11kw Air Source Heat Pump which supplies hot water and heats the home with underfloor heating on two of the three floors (the top floor has been fitted with radiators). The heating can be fully controlled (even remotely) by an app. There are 5.1Kw of in-roof solar panels which are supplemented by an 11.6 KWh battery which can be force charged in the evening with much cheaper electricity to power the house the next day. The house is also fitted with a 7kw "myenergi zappi" car charger. The lower ground floor extension incorporating the living/dining kitchen has been cedar clad and has a sedum roof which has excellent insulating qualities and is ideal for the environment.
