    How about saying that a normal air con unit, with a few extra valves, can heat as well as cool - in other words, if you’ve got Aircon, you’ve got a full heat pump, just without a pipe to do the heating bit. The energy you’re spending cooling your house could also be heating your water… For free.

      Yup, just need to reverse the flow of the coolant. Or just… turn it around (don’t actually do that, use a proper heat pump).

      Or it can heat your house during colder months.
