Low-Carbon Heating with the NIBE F2050
For homeowners looking to move away from fossil fuels, even properties with unique layouts or non-traditional construction can successfully make the switch to renewable heating. A recent installation in a park home in Longstanton demonstrates how the NIBE F2050 air source heat pump can deliver efficient, low-carbon comfort in almost any setting.
The Project
The homeowner, Dona, was keen to replace her LPG system with a more sustainable alternative. Having researched her options, she discovered that heat pumps can indeed be installed in park homes – something many people may not realise is possible. This opened the door to a tailored heating solution that aligned with her environmental goals.
A 6 kW NIBE F2050 air source heat pump was installed, paired with a 160-litre cylinder to meet both heating and hot water demand. The project also included replacing four existing radiators with larger units to match the home’s heat loss calculations and adding three fan radiators capable of providing both heating and cooling. To accommodate the system, a dedicated shed was built to house the plant room equipment, ensuring a neat and efficient layout.
The installation was supported by the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS), which contributed £7,500 towards the cost, making the transition to renewable heating more accessible and affordable.
This project marks an important milestone: the first NIBE heat pump installation in a park home through Eco Installer’s team. It highlights the flexibility of heat pump technology and its potential to decarbonise all types of homes.
