FAQ
Often yes, provided your radiators heat well with cooler water than a boiler delivers. During the visit we check radiator sizes, insulation and the water temperature needed. If some radiators are too small, we tell you which ones to replace or whether a high-temperature heat pump is a better fit.
Yes, it is one of the most common replacements. An air-to-water heat pump connects to your existing heating circuit and can also produce hot water. We check the pipework, available electrical capacity and the outdoor unit location. Removal of the tank and boiler is set out in the quote.
Usually a few days on site for a detached house, depending on the setup. Timing depends on boiler removal, plumbing and electrical work and access to the outdoor location. The quote states the expected duration and the scheduled period; commissioning and settings are done at the end.
Sometimes. Depending on the commune and how visible the outdoor unit is from the street, a prior works declaration may be required at the town hall, especially in protected areas or shared buildings. The installation must also respect neighbourhood noise rules. We check this during the visit and choose the location accordingly.
No, when correctly chosen and placed. The outdoor unit makes a fan noise that is more noticeable in deep winter. We keep it away from windows and boundaries, use anti-vibration mounts and set the unit to avoid needless cycling. The sound level of the proposed model is shown in the quote.
Regular professional servicing is recommended, and mandatory above certain output or refrigerant quantities. It checks tightness, settings, filters and performance. Between visits, keep the outdoor unit clear. Cofany offers maintenance contracts; the quote states what is included.
