Storage and electric heater replacement across County Londonderry

For Derry/Londonderry landlords, swapping storage heaters for a heat pump is one of the more effective EPC improvements. Old storage heaters in Derry/Londonderry homes are removed and recycled as part of the replacement. In Northern Ireland, cooling is mostly needed in conservatories and glazed rooms, while efficient heating benefits the whole home.
