STOP. THINK!
DON’T SCRAP YOUR OLD BOILER FOR ANOTHER BOILER
Heat pumps offer triple the efficiency and the biggest Top-up Fund in the market
The boiler scrappage scheme introduced by the Government has the potential to transform the future of central heating, says Daikin UK. But rather than simply replacing one old boiler for another newer model, home owners should seize this opportunity to move away from traditional fossil fuels towards a more efficient renewable energy alternative. It’s the perfect chance to grab the biggest cash subsidy in the market today with up to £1300 of funding available from the Government plus a £500 Top-up Fund from Daikin UK. So don’t get left out of the renewables revolution!
The Government decision to encourage home owners to scrap their old, inefficient G-rated boilers with a £400 voucher for a new energy efficient model is absolutely right and could save home owners huge amounts on their rising fuel bills. But the choice in the market for heating system is now wider than ever, and householders should also look beyond boilers for highly efficient and now even more affordable solutions to heat our homes.
Why? Because Daikin Altherma heat pumps offer triple the efficiency of even the most efficient boilers in the market and produce 2/3rds of all the heat for warming our homes and hot water absolutely free from the air. Fact not fiction. Yet so far, heat pumps barely get a foot note in the ‘What’s it all about’ section of the boiler scrappage scheme website. The chances are, you’ve not even heard of them yet.
But the Daikin Altherma heat pump range offers a much more future-proof and low carbon alternative to any old (or new) boiler. And one that not only qualifies for the Boiler Scrappage Scheme £400 voucher, but also qualifies for up to £900 grant from the Government’s Low Carbon Building’s Programme and also attracts a further £500 discount available exclusively from Daikin UK: the biggest top up funding currently available in the market today.
So before home owners leap to replace their old gas-guzzling or oil-hungry boilers, think ahead a little further. Even the most efficient combi-boilers are not only old technology, but will keep you tied up to fossil fuel price volatility for years to come. To be sure that you don’t get left out in the cold with rising fossil fuel prices, you need to be part of the renewables revolution. The reality is that Daikin Altherma heat pumps are the heating and hot water solution of the future because:
• It provides all your hot water and home heating needs - even when the weather is down to -20°C
• You don’t need to rip out your central heating system or change your radiators; just replace your boiler with a heat pump
Daikin Altherma HT system, which delivers seasonal efficiency of more than 300%, can save you up to 45% per year on fuel costs, compared with running a G-rated boiler, or up to 25% per year compared with running an A-rated boiler, based on energy suppliers’ published dual fuel tariffs as of February 2010. And that’s without factoring potential rise in energy prices through the lifetime of your heating system.
What’s more, the entire Daikin Altherma product range available from Daikin UK is accredited by the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) so you can access all the grants available towards the cost of your installation when fitted by an MCS accredited installer.
