Hi Wesley, thanks for trusting us with you heat pump install, and for taking the time to leave a great review 🙏🏻 
Excellent at all stages. We got many quotes for our Heat Pump installation and Dan was the most knowledgeable. We were right to trust him. The installation was seamless and incredibly neat. Dan remained in contact after the install to ensure we were totally happy. Many thanks to Dan, Luke, Josh and Luke, we were so impressed by all the team. Currently sitting in my toasty house, feeling very glad we took the plunge!

Hi Carol, thank you for trusting us with your heat pump installation, and indeed the keys to your house! We were really pleased with how smoothly the installation went, and even more so at your great review! I'll be sure to pass on your thanks to Luke, Josh and Luke!Dan 
Dan and Luke at Hohm have been brilliant from start to finish. We asked them to install a heat pump for us and I was delighted with it. During design phase, Dan was clearly very knowledgeable and took time to talk through the process and the reasons behind his decisions. He was very accommodating of my needs (e.g. I wanted specific radiator styles) and was swift at turning round a quote. Come install, they worked really efficiently, didn't leave any mess and talked me through the system once it was built.
They also worked well alongside our other builders and seemed to go above and beyond for us. For example, to minimise the time my young family had without hot water they installed a temporary immersion heater. I also have to acknowledge how good they were with my kids who could have been perceived as getting in the way, but both Dan and Luke were great with them, talking to them about what they were doing and having fun. Shout out to Luke from my daughter who still talks about him all they time!
Then the performance. For my system, (5kW hest pump in 4 bed detached house) my efficiency in the first month has been 520%. Excellent outcome and and warm house 24/7.
Aftercare: perhaps one of the parts I appreciate the most, Dan's willingness to keep an eye on my system performance and help me to refine the settings to make sure it works for me. In the first 2 weeks, he was picking up issues before I had even noticed them and suggested how to change the settings.
Overall - incredible from start to finish and would fully recommend Hohm to anyone wanting a heat pump.

Hi Sarah, thank you for your continued business and support. Reviews from valued customers like yourself make the world of difference for small companies like us. 
Dan and his team worked tirelessly to put right what Liquid & Gas Ltd got wrong. Despite it being a Friday, and having to turn off the boiler as the previous company had left it unsafe, his team found the part and worked into the evening to ensure the occupants did not have to go a whole weekend without heat and hot water. They did not take advantage, and charged a fair price. An excellent service around.

Frequently asked questions about central heating systems
What is the cheapest central heating system to run?
The cheapest central heating system to run can vary depending on factors such as fuel prices, energy efficiency, insulation quality, and the specific needs of your property. However, in many cases, gas central heating systems tend to be among the most cost-effective options due to the relatively low cost of natural gas compared to other fuel sources like oil or electricity.
Additionally, modern condensing boilers and efficient heating controls can further enhance the cost-effectiveness of gas central heating systems by maximizing energy efficiency. It's always a good idea to compare the long-term costs and efficiency of different heating options before making a decision.
How much is the average cost for central heating?
The average cost for central heating installation can vary significantly depending on several factors such as the size of the property, the type of heating system chosen, the complexity of the installation, and local market rates. As of the last update, which was in January 2022, the average cost for installing central heating in a typical UK home ranged from £2,500 to £5,000 or more. This estimate typically includes the cost of the boiler or heating unit, radiators, pipework, and installation labor.
However, it's essential to obtain quotes from reputable heating engineers or companies to get an accurate estimate tailored to your specific requirements and property characteristics. Additionally, consider factors like energy efficiency, warranty, and ongoing maintenance costs when comparing quotes and selecting a central heating system. Prices may have fluctuated, so it's advisable to research current costs in your area for the most accurate information.
What is central heating in a house?
Central heating in a house refers to a system that provides heat to multiple rooms or areas within the property from a centralized source. The primary components of a central heating system typically include:
Boiler: This is the central heating unit that generates heat. Boilers commonly use gas, oil, electricity, or renewable energy sources like biomass to heat water, which then circulates through radiators or underfloor heating systems to warm the space.
Radiators or Underfloor Heating: These are the heat emitters that distribute the warmth generated by the boiler throughout the rooms. Radiators are metal panels with fins that radiate heat into the room, while underfloor heating consists of pipes installed beneath the floor surface, which heat the floor and subsequently the room above.
Pipework: Pipes connect the boiler to the radiators or underfloor heating system, allowing hot water to circulate throughout the house.
Thermostat and Controls: A thermostat allows homeowners to set and control the desired temperature within the property. Additional controls, such as timers and thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs), can help optimise energy usage and ensure rooms are heated efficiently.
Central heating systems provide consistent and comfortable heat distribution throughout the house, making them popular for residential properties in colder climates. They offer convenience, energy efficiency, and flexibility in controlling indoor temperatures compared to localised heating methods like space heaters or individual room heating systems.
Is it cheaper to have central heating on all the time?
Whether it's cheaper to have central heating on all the time or to use it only when needed depends on various factors, including the insulation level of your home, the efficiency of your heating system, the cost of energy, and your heating preferences. Here are some considerations:
1. Insulation: Well-insulated homes can retain heat better, reducing the need for continuous heating. If your home is well-insulated, you may find that you can maintain a comfortable temperature with shorter heating periods.
2. Efficiency of Heating System: Modern central heating systems, especially those with condensing boilers and smart controls, can be more efficient when operated continuously at a lower temperature rather than being turned on and off frequently. However, older or less efficient systems may benefit from being used more strategically.
3. Energy Costs: The cost of energy, particularly gas or electricity, plays a significant role in determining the most cost-effective heating strategy. If energy prices are lower during off-peak hours, such as overnight, it may be more economical to run the heating continuously but at a lower setting.
4. Personal Comfort: Some people prefer to maintain a consistent temperature throughout the day, which may necessitate leaving the heating on continuously. Others may be comfortable with fluctuations in temperature and prefer to only heat their home when necessary.
Ultimately, the most cost-effective approach will vary depending on your specific circumstances. It's a good idea to experiment with different heating schedules, monitor energy usage, and consider investing in energy-efficient upgrades like insulation and smart heating controls to optimise comfort and reduce costs. Additionally, seeking advice from heating professionals or energy advisors can help you make informed decisions about your heating strategy.
How future proof is your central heating?
The future-proofing of your central heating system depends on several factors, including its energy efficiency, compatibility with emerging technologies, and adaptability to future regulations and environmental standards. Here are some considerations for assessing the future-proofing of your central heating:
Energy Efficiency: Investing in a high-efficiency central heating system can help future-proof your home against rising energy costs and evolving regulations aimed at reducing carbon emissions. Look for systems with high energy efficiency ratings and features like condensing boilers, smart controls, and advanced insulation.
Compatibility with Emerging Technologies: Consider whether your central heating system is compatible with emerging technologies such as renewable energy sources (e.g., solar panels, heat pumps) and smart home integration. Choosing a system that can easily integrate with these technologies will increase its longevity and flexibility.
