Storage and electric heater replacement in Ballymena
For Ballymena landlords, swapping storage heaters for a heat pump is one of the more effective EPC improvements. Northern Ireland's mild, damp climate makes efficient heating and dehumidifying the main benefits for most homes.
Old storage heaters in Ballymena homes are removed and recycled as part of the replacement. Ballymena sits around 23 miles from Belfast, inside our County Antrim area. Coverage includes BT42, BT43 and BT44.
