Property details:

Detached bungalow with a half-acre paddock. Prior to buying the property in June 2021 it had been extensively refurbished and extended. There's cavity wall insulation and 300mm of loft insulation.

What changes have been made? 

Having moved into a property very suitable for a ground source heat pump we had one installed. A NIBE S1255 all in one cylinder and heat pump unit that fits nicely into the previous airing cupboard. We had underfloor heating fitted, opting for tiled flooring throughout the property to enhance the efficiency of the heating. This came at no loss of height in any of the rooms as the installer routed out the channels for the heating pipes within the existing floors. Both these installations took roughly a month to complete in October 2021. In August 22 we had 2.7kWp solar PV panels installed in the south and west facing parts of our roof. The PV system is an in-roof system as we have slate tiles on our roof. In March 2023 we replaced the oldest double glazing in the property with triple glazed windows. 

Access/parking:

Plenty of parking space on the driveway.
