Episode 3: Heat Pumps, Your Questions Answered

Evan Davis's Heat Pump Challenge

Available for 29 days

In the final episode, Evan asks listeners to get in touch with their questions about heat pumps and we'll get answers from our expert panel. We'll also be hearing from listeners who've already installed heat pumps and the lessons they've learned...are they saving money on their bills? Our expert panel is Richard Fitton, Professor of Building Performance at the University of Salford and Emily Seymour the Climate and Sustainability Edtor at Which? Over the course of the series we asked you what topics you wanted covering in this programme, and you answered in your droves. We've had dozens of emails to our inbox, asking us about finding trustworthy installers, noise and how heat pumps might work in flats. We'll also be hearing positive heat pump stories but also a nightmare, and what went wrong during the installation. If you have any questions for the panel you want answering about heat pumps, you can email evanschallenge@bbc.co.uk PRESENTER: EVAN DAVIS PRODUCER: LYDIA THOMAS
