This 3,500 sq. ft. family home in Lisburn, Northern Ireland, highlights the remarkable savings achievable through a smart combination of advanced renewable technologies.

Daly Renewables expertly integrated an Ecoforest Ground-Source Heat Pump, Roth underfloor heating, a Solar PV system, and an energy management system to provide year-round heating, cooling, and hot water. The result is a beautifully efficient home designed to meet both immediate and future energy needs.

The homeowners aimed to reduce their environmental impact while securing long-term savings on energy bills. Daly Renewables was involved from the early design stage, ensuring the home was optimised for renewable energy solutions to minimise annual running costs for heating, hot water, and overall energy consumption.

Additionally, the home was future- proofed, allowing for easy integration of further renewable technologies as the homeowners’ needs evolve.
