Heard stories good and bad of it working well or awfully badly, depending on how knowledgable the installer was.

Maybe talk to these guys http://www.thevillage.ie/ - the Cloughjordan Eco-Village - where they're setting up a green village using all kinds of eco technology. They'll probably know more about it than most. It's in Tipp, and you can mooch down of a Saturday and hope to meet some, I think.
