Did our air source heat pump cope at -6C?

Just when we thought we were rounding the corner of another mild winter, we were hit by freezing cold easterly winds in early February and our temperatures tumbled to -6C.

This is the coldest temperatures have dropped since we’ve had the heat pump, and the house certainly felt it, so we wanted to share our thoughts on ASHPs when things get really cold and icy.

As mentioned in the video, this some of our consumption from February 2021 during the cold snap. There were some heavy consumption days. As always, please ignore the room temperature column as this is the temperature inside our boiler cupboard.
