When choosing an apartment, comfort and efficiency are at the forefront of every potential resident’s mind. At The Waterfront, we’ve taken these priorities to heart with our state-of-the-art heating system, featuring advanced Air Source Heat Pumps. This system offers numerous benefits that ensure your living environment is cozy whilst also cutting your carbon
What is an Air Source Heat Pump?
An air source heat pump (ASHP) is an innovative and sustainable technology that extracts heat from the outside air and transforms it into usable heat for your home. Even when the air outside is cold, ASHPs can effectively pull in heat and amplify it through a refrigeration process involving a compressor and a heat exchanger. The captured and amplified heat is then used to warm your home or provide hot water. This process is highly energy-efficient, as it uses less electricity compared to the heat it generates.
Superior Heating Technology
The Heating System at The Waterfront is designed to provide reliable and efficient heat throughout the entire complex. Our air source heat pumps are installed on the roof, where they capture heat from the outside air—even in cold weather—and convert it into energy for heating your apartment.
Efficient Heat Distribution
Heat is distributed through a well-designed network of pipework that runs into the utility cupboard of each apartment. This flow supplies heat to a heat interface unit in the utility cupboard, which provides instant hot water whenever you turn on the tap. Additionally, it delivers heat to the underfloor heating system, offering a consistent and comfortable warmth throughout your apartment.
Personalised Comfort
Your apartment at The Waterfront comes equipped with a thermostat, allowing you to control the heat. This feature ensures that you can create the perfect climate in your living space, tailored to your preferences.
Transparent and Fair Billing
Each apartment is fitted with a meter that monitors the amount of heat used. This meter is connected to a billing system that charges for the heat on a prepayment basis. This approach not only promotes fair billing but also encourages energy conservation, as you pay only for the heat you actually use.
Eco-Friendly and Cost-Effective
One of the standout features of our air source heating system is its energy efficiency. Heat pumps are known for their ability to provide more energy than they consume, making them a much more sustainable option compared to traditional gas boilers. They also have a significantly lower global warming potential, contributing to a reduction in your carbon footprint.
