Heat Pumps (Fujitsu)

Don't believe everything you read, they aren't as great as they are cracked up to be, our new Fujitsu ASTS18LDC Heat Pump (May 2008) has now failed us twice and just at the time when the weather takes a dive.

They really are not that efficient when the temperature drops to below 5 deg C and even though the area we are trying to heat is insulated to the max thickness bats, plus double glazing we still have to bring in the trusty old gas heater.

I think all the hype you hear is a little like that children's story of 'The Emperor's New Clothes.

Now all the unit does is blink red and green lights at me and blow cold air.

Plus that I have just had a call from the nice man at Mitre 10 to tell me that it will be 4 days before they can get someone from Fujitsu to service it, oh, the joys of living away from the city ....................!#$%&!
