💧♻️ Why use drinking-quality mains water to flush toilets?

This installation combines an air source heat pump with a rainwater harvesting system, allowing collected rainwater to be reused for toilet flushing and outdoor taps.

Alongside this, we’ve installed a full water filtration system and hot water setup, creating a highly efficient and environmentally conscious solution for the homeowner.

A great example of how modern homes can reduce both energy and water consumption without compromising comfort.

What do you think of this setup?

When installing renewable heating systems, the quality of the technology matters just as much as the installation. That’s why we work with Baxi, one of the UK’s most established heating manufacturers.

Their systems combine proven engineering and reliable performance with long-term support for homeowners. Couple that with our professional installation team, and we can deliver the performance you expect.

There’s still a lot of confusion around heat pumps. Let’s clear up a few common myths using some real-life scenarios...

Myth: You need a brand new house
Reality: Many existing homes can be upgraded successfully - in fact, one of our first installs was in a 1930s-era home.

Myth: They’re noisy to run
Reality: When Bo installed a heat pump in his own home, his wife actually asked if it was running, as she couldn't hear it working!

One of the biggest concerns people have about switching to renewable heating is how disruptive the process will be. The reality is that it is often straightforward. Here’s what one customer recently shared:

"Bill and the team were fast and professional, getting my heat pump installed and running in 5 days. They were clear and easy to communicate with – would highly recommend!"

It's our goal to ensure that:

• The project will run smoothly
• You’ll understand every step
• Your heating will be up and running quickly

If you’re curious about whether a heat pump could work in your home, we’re always happy to talk it through. Drop a message in the comments below to get started...

With rising energy costs, changing regulations and the push towards low-carbon heating, more homeowners are starting to explore what heat pumps could mean for their homes.

But adoption isn’t just about technology. It’s about understanding how heat pumps work, whether your home is suitable and what the installation actually involves.

We’ve written a new blog that explains why heat pump adoption is accelerating, and what the long-term energy savings and comfort benefits are for you. If you’re starting to think about future-proofing your heating, it’s a great place to start.

We’re thrilled to announce a new partnership with local weather forecasters to create the UK’s first predictive heating system.

Using advanced AI, your heat pump will now automatically adjust its settings based on the weather forecast for the next week.


…Okay, you got us. 😄 Happy April Fools! While predictive weather-controlled heat pumps aren’t here (yet), we do make sure every installation and service keeps your home as comfortable and efficient as possible.

A heat pump works hard all year round to keep your home comfortable, so giving it a regular service is one of the best ways to keep it running efficiently and reliably... And it’s always great to hear when customers are happy with the service too: “We had our heat pump serviced by Harvard Renewables, and it was an excellent service! The team were friendly, on-time and the price was good too.”

A professional service helps make sure everything is working as it should, keeps performance at its best, and can spot small issues before they turn into bigger problems.

Did you know the government has announced a £15 billion Warm Homes Plan aimed at helping households cut their energy bills and make homes more energy efficient?

The plan could see up to 5 million homes upgraded by 2030, with measures like insulation, solar panels and heat pumps helping families save hundreds of pounds a year on energy. It also aims to lift up to one million households out of fuel poverty.

Support will include grants, fully funded upgrades for some low-income households, and low or zero-interest loans to make clean energy technologies more accessible.

With more people already looking at solutions like solar and heat pumps, the plan is designed to make it easier for households to switch to cleaner, more affordable energy for the future.
