I think #HeatPump clothes dryers are a technology we need to embrace, due to them being more efficient and also not spewing a cloud of microplastics out the side of your house.
However, I really wish #Whirlpool had considered how people could clean lint out of the heat exchangers without taking the whole damn unit apart.

Heat pump sales to increase 10% this year, but growth falls short of potential – industry

I'm surprised. When I stand 3m from our two heat pumps and maybe 15m from the road, all I hear is rust noise: I can't hear the heat pumps at all.
Our heat pumps make no more noise than the oil-fired boiler they replaced.
There are legal limits on the amount of noise that #HeatPumps can make. If your neighbour's #HeatPump is unreasonably noisy then it may need servicing or repair.
Consumers going green due to oil shock? Let’s hope so!

#UK: "[..] from 2028, no new homes will be on the gas network - and will instead be on a heat network or get a #heatpump - and they must have #solar panels on their roofs [..]"
'"The #IranWar has once again shown our drive for clean power is essential for our #energy security so we can escape the grip of #fossilfuel markets we don't control," said Energy Secretary Ed Miliband'

“Developers will be required to install solar panels and heat pumps in all new homes in England as part of updated planning requirements published by the government.” —> credit where due, good policy by the UK Labour government! https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/czjw7klkjm2o #GoodNews #UK #UKPol #Climate #Energy #Solar #HeatPump #Renewables
