Donhead St Mary, Shaftesbury

Over the last 20 years we have gradually retrofitted our home to be greener and more energy efficient. We initially installed a 2.52kW solar PV array, followed by a High Temperature air source heat pump to replace the oil fired boiler. We have subsequently replaced the original poor quality softwood windows with uPVC double glazing. Our most recent addition is more solar PV (7.735kW) and battery storage (20kW). We also have an EV and our garden is pretty wild.

This house has:

• Air Source Heat Pump,
• Solar panels,
• Battery storage,
• Cavity wall insulation,
• Lifestyle changes,
• Electric Vehicle charging
