Comment on Oxford study proves heat pumps triumph over fossil fuels in the cold

  It’s underfloor heating, the units that do both are more expensive so there must be something different.

    Ah yeah that’s a different story then. However I’ve never heard of in-floor cooling before. I wonder how effective it would be since heat rises? I think you’d just have a cool floor and hot muggy air. Also the floor would condense water constantly so your floor would be slippery and if you have carpet it would be wet / damp constantly.

      It’s a thing but you take really can’t cool down a lot due to the reasons you mention.
