4. Replacing an air-con unit with a heat pump is good.

I can see that putting thermostats on ducted-air vents will be more complicated than radiators, but the answer to over-heated south-facing rooms is not separate heaters in each room.

I do fear that moving away from a building-wide system is a mistake.
If the furnace is in the basement, ground-source heat pumps would be possible, though not cheap, and would use the summer heat in winter.

If the existing heat outlets/radiators are central, I hope they consider how the air-flows will change with the heat coming from the windows.

Three of the ones most important to me are due to disappear after a 'public consultation' I was unaware of until the day it was concluding.

Nobody I spoke to was aware of it either.

Item 5 makes me think it should be called "Beeching Axe: The Next Generation".

All window air conditioners are heat pumps, they just only pump heat one way (unless you physically turn them around). The main issue i have with the Gradient heat pump shown is it costs the same as three inexpensive window AC units, and it has to use a condensate pump to chuck water out the window or your floor get really wet.

The UK appears to be trying to make the distinction between "migrants" (temporary, mostly economic migrants) and "immigrants" (coming to stay, and including refugees, asylum seekers etc).
