I really like those that you can find in Switzerland (either in Coop or Migros). The basic assumption is "trust the customer". Thus, the self-checkout devices don't have the annoying "you must weight the article you just

Yeah, it's really strange to have an heat pump without automatic defrost, as it's something that's really needed on cold and humid days

Yes. For example Daikin Altherma, but I'm sure that every brand has a compatible system

> you will need at least 5sq meters of space with excellent ventilation I don't see where you read that, but at least for Daikin ones, the front must be clear, but usage can be shared (eg. a driveway)

The radiator upsizing makes sense, but there also exists high temperature heat pumps (~70C) that work with "old" radiators

I (self installed) a heat pump and I love it. Sure, it's not really efficient (COP ~1.5) when it's -10C outside, but this happens 1 day per year. Most of the time the COP is around 4: that means that it uses 1kWh of electricity to

> Inappropriate for many (possibly most) dwellings in the UK Why ? UK is well above freezing (and even them, heat pumps _work_ below freezing, even with a COP > 1). So I'm curious about your assumption

Yeah, as an EU, this truc is ridiculously heavy and big. Well most cars produced nowadays are too.. :(

IMHO we should also look at EROI (energy return on investment), which Wikipedia cites [0] to be around ~20, that is a wind turbine will produce 20 times what it cost to make it. [0]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy

I agree. Also, our planet is limited. Thinking that we can increase production infinitely ( good economist point of view), is just physically impossible

In some countries it is also called "city gas"

A really pleasant to read story. It's funny because I live in Switzerland and some of my friends debate the "ioded salt", and prefer to consume "natural salt" without the additives. Funny how history can repeat itse

Don't you have to pay for it afterwards ?

No longer true since at least 5+ years. New heat pumps are very _very_ silent

I agree on the RCD part. An "off the shelf" one would be cheaper and more safe IMHO. Appart from that, good job ! :-)
