Ecodan van pays visit to the Borders

The Mitsubishi Ecodan van, a mobile exhibition unit showcasing the advantages of Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs), paid a visit to the Borders this week.
As part of its commitment to making Tenants’ homes easier and more affordable to heat, Scottish Borders Housing Association has commissioned Easyheat to fit Mitsubishi ASHPs in some of its rural off-grid homes in Newcastleton and Town Yetholm, and invited the Ecodan van to spend a day in each village to talk to Tenants about the advantages of the systems.
ASHPs, which absorb heat from the outside air and release it inside the home, are a modern, environmentally friendly home energy option for homes that cannot be connected to the gas or electricity networks. The heat they extract from the ground, air, or water is constantly being renewed naturally, saving you money on fuel costs and reducing harmful CO2 emissions.
