Efficient Heating for a New Build Bungalow in Glenavy
A recently completed new-build bungalow in Glenavy required a heating system capable of delivering both efficiency and comfort. With a floor area of 140m² and underfloor heating installed throughout, the property needed a solution that could provide consistent low-temperature heat while also supplying reliable domestic hot water for a high-volume shower.
Installer Connor from KPH Renewables submitted the project plans to Warmflow using the company’s free specification service. Following assessment of the property’s heating demand, a Warmflow Zeno R290 Air Source Heat Pump (AS01) was specified. This model was selected to specifically match the heating requirements of the 140m² bungalow, ensuring the system could operate efficiently while maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures all year round.
To meet the home’s hot water needs, the system was paired with a Warmflow Nero 240ltr Heat Pump Cylinder. The larger-capacity cylinder was chosen to ensure a consistent supply of hot water, particularly important given the installation of a large-volume shower. Combined with the heat pump, the cylinder forms a balanced system designed to deliver dependable heating and hot water performance across the whole property.
The use of underfloor heating throughout the bungalow makes it an ideal candidate for a heat pump installation. Systems of this type operate most efficiently at lower flow temperatures, allowing the Warmflow Zeno AS01-R290 to work effectively with the underfloor pipework to provide steady, even heat throughout the home.
For Connor, choosing Warmflow was an easy decision. As a local manufacturer Warmflow provide the advantage of accessible support and technical back up whenever required. The system also incorporates Warmlink technology, enabling installers to monitor multiple heat pumps remotely through the Warmlink app, simplifying commissioning and ongoing system management.
Connor also highlighted the completeness of the installation kit as a key benefit. “It has everything I need,” he noted. Designed with installers in mind, the package includes essential components, such as the Flexi hoses, Y strainers, Adey Magnaclean Pro 2 filter and the option of the Warmflow Zeno wiring centre, that helped to simplify the installation, save time on site and reduce time spent sourcing additional parts.
The completed system delivers a modern, low-carbon heating solution tailored to the exact needs of the property. With the Warmflow Zeno AS01-R290 heat pump working in harmony with the Nero HP240UV cylinder and the underfloor heating system, the homeowners now benefit from consistent warmth and dependable hot water throughout their new home.
This Glenavy installation demonstrates how Warmflow’s R290 air source heat pump technology can provide an efficient, practical heating solution for modern new-build properties, while offering installers the reliability, support and ease of installation that Warmflow is known for.
