Had to get a co-op meal deal today because the Tesco express over the road from where I work is shut for the next month for a refurb. It's not as good and also they don't seem to sell individual bags of crisps, only multipacks and those massive sharing bags.

There weren't any of those left in Tesco just now but I bet they would have been drably disappointing. I was going to buy sweeties to throw at the village children but ended up coming away with four awful overpriced craft beers instead.

So I am sitting in the car park of a posh hotel where the bridal party is having their pre wedding meal

With a 6 week old in the car so I can swoop in every so often for him to be fed

He’s pissed off, my wife is stressed as gently caress and I don’t even get any food

How completely impractical are they in most houses then if 30 year old ones aren't going to work? Virtually everything we've looked at is Victorian or older, and I guess that getting anything remotely efficient and non-fossil-fuel-using in there is going to be near impossible?

Edit: And the in-laws need to replace their coal-fired Rayburn but their house is large, leaky and poorly insulated. They only currently heat a couple of the rooms and supplement with electric radiators though so if a heat pump can manage that then it would be good enough as a replacement.

I'd hate to act like I know it all, I really don't. Like this house could be warmer tonight.

The issues here are they've obviously whacked out the old boiler and put the heat pump in but not really looked at anything else. There is 300mm of insulation in the loft they presumably got paid for, but things like the radiators are still the old ones, you need bigger surface area ones to radiate the lower temp heat better.

I have a mate who fitted, at least two heat pumps to his leaky old listed building, but he also paid for new rads. I imagine he spent a lot.

Heat pumps work, but they need done context appropriate design, and probably spend. And there never going to be as economically efficient in a retrofit compromise as in a new build setup for them. Even then you might have a secondary heat source. Or maybe solar taking some of the electrical cost burden.
