Delivering homes with heat pumps
UK – The second webinar in the Future Homes Hub’s Future Homes Standard Essentials series, Delivering Homes With Heat Pumps, will take place on Friday (15th May, 1-2pm).
Designed to continue the conversation on how homebuilders can prepare for the transition ahead, the free Lunch & Learn webinar will focus on one of the most significant shifts under the Future Homes Standard: the move away from fossil‑fuel boilers towards low‑carbon, low‑temperature heating systems.
Insights from homebuilders already delivering homes with heat pumps show that getting the fundamentals right, from fabric performance and system design to installation and commissioning, is critical to reducing risk and improving outcomes. This session will share practical lessons to help you build confidence and capability ahead of regulatory change.
This webinar will explore how focusing on the fundamentals of heat‑pump‑ready delivery can help to:
- Reduce technical and commercial risk when deploying heat pumps at scale
- Improve heating and fabric design to support low‑temperature systems
- Avoid common installation and commissioning pitfalls
- Enhance in‑use performance and customer satisfaction
- Starting this work now will help ensure your organisation is ready, resilient and well positioned for the Future Homes Standard.
