Background

“The key objectives for the renewable heating system was that the units had to be compact, quiet and energy efficient,” added Gordon Macallister from Highland Plumbing & Heating, which installed the renewable heating systems.

“Low Maintenance and reliability are every bit as important from both the customer and the installer perspective and with running costs that are comparable with natural gas but without the emissions, that can only be a good thing in helping prevent climate change.”

We look at what customers are asking for and have seen a growing interest in renewable technologies.

Solution

Bordered by native Caledonian pine forest, the stunning development of 2 and 3 bedroom homes is nestled in one of the Highlands’ most vibrant villages. The properties are built to Tulloch Homes’ premier specification – and come with a 10-year NHBC warranty.The mix of both social and private properties on this site all benefit from the QUHZ Ecodan air source heat pump, which delivers all the heating and hot water the properties need.

The QUHZ Ecodan is specifically designed with new-build standards of insulations and lower heating loads in mind. The super-efficient system uses CO2 as a refrigerant, which allows the heat pump to deliver water at 70°C to a packaged 200 litre thermal store, so that families receive hot water whenever they need it.

All of the homes in Phase One have now been snapped up and Tulloch Homes are anticipating similar interest once Phase Two is completed.
