    Hi

    We're about to start a house build and we are deciding on heating system. We are interested in air to water heat pump with under floor heating. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this system. I've read really mixed reviews some that it's really expensive to run and others that it's efficient. I think I've established that it is much more expensive with rads, not suited to that really.

    My main concern is that it has to be on all the time from October. I know the pump isn't running constant there would be thermostat that would mean pump would only be on when drops below certain temperature. We both work so won't be home during the day. So essentially the house will be heated even though no one is there.

    We were going to get the house a well insulated as possible, good Windows, heat recovery system and air tightness. So I'd hope we wouldn't need heat much, so in that case air to water heat pump seems like a massive investment where we could put oil system I Just to have for cold weather where required.

    Anyone any experience with air to water heat pump or any feedback
