Together Housing replaced three gas boilers at Prospect House with four Panasonic M Series R290 air-to-water heat pumps, each rated at 30kW. The work is part of the housing association's push to remove fossil fuel heating from its buildings by 2038, after completing more than 2,000 domestic heat pump retrofits. Panasonic says the commercial units are designed for larger buildings and should cut both carbon emissions and running costs. The project shows how social housing providers are moving from home retrofits to commercial and office properties. Together Housing also tracks progress with a carbon reduction dashboard, covering its 29,000 homes and wider estate. The article does not include projected carbon savings or payback periods, so the strongest evidence will be measured performance over the next few heating seasons.
