Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

For context, in my home, I'm adding an air-to-air in one room (that isn't currently heated) on a separate exchanger.
But for the rest of the house, when I already have radiators and underfloor heating, I don't want to run 100mm ducting, or fit split units throughout the building. When I do eventually go to a heat pump for the main system (eventually) I'll need to install a new tank funnily enough, as currently I just have on-demand gas-heated water.

I'm don't want to sound like an expert, because I'm not, but I Imagine underfloor heating probably makes all the difference.

Plus a mini split on a room or two can make a big difference. I was just saying I lived in places with radiators (gas) and with mini splits. The mini splits were much better.
