Plenty of homes in an all-electric programme won't get an outdoor heat pump. Flatted blocks and constrained sites electrify another way, and hot water falls to an immersion heater.

Every litre of it is then billed at the electricity rate, so the only lever left is how many kWh it takes to heat. That stock still counts towards the proposed 2030 EPC C target for social rented homes.

We're bringing iHP X to ASCP 26 at ICC Wales, 8 and 9 September. The heat pump sits inside the cylinder, using our unique top-down heating technology, and it's up to 3x more efficient than direct electric. No outdoor unit, and it fits the old cylinder's cupboard.

Heat pump water heaters that need hours to reheat from cold are why a resident reaches for the immersion switch. On boost, iHP X gives usable hot water in around 30 minutes, heating what you need rather than all of it. It's also the best performance in its compliance category today, and ready for the reforms tomorrow.

We won Innovation of the Year at the Unlock Net Zero Awards last night! 🏆

The award is for our work with St Basils, bringing down energy bills and delivering healthier homes for residents.

Here's what it's about: our pilot shows what smart hot water can do beyond just heating water. It balances heating, ventilation and energy use across the home, adapting in real time to keep things comfortable and healthy while cutting waste. The early results speak for themselves, around 30% lower energy use and roughly £200 a year back in residents' pockets.

Huge thanks to St Basils and to everyone who recognised the work. This is just the start.

Hot water specification can directly influence fuel poverty outcomes, and for social housing providers today, every retrofit decision has to work harder:

✅Meet compliance.
✅Reduce carbon.
✅Lower bills for residents.

Hot water sits right at the centre of that challenge. It is used every day and has a direct impact on comfort, cost and energy demand. And when specified well, it can help households reduce avoidable waste without asking residents to change how they live.

We see it for ourselves from Mixergy specifications. Thanks to our patented sensor technology, which accurately measures how much hot water is available and at what temperature, we can provide indicative savings based on real-world cylinder usage:

Birmingham City Council households saved up to £286 over two years on hot water bills.

Barcud Housing Association residents using smart cylinders with solar PV saw typical savings of around £19 per week on hot water.

North Devon Homes residents with solar PV saved around £91 over six months.

The right specification can help improve efficiency, support residents with lower bills, and contribute to wider fuel poverty and decarbonisation goals. Read the full blog here:

What smart hot water has delivered in practice, and why it is worth taking seriously as part of a broader fuel poverty strategy.

We're on stage twice at Futurebuild this year, both sessions are worth putting in your diary.

Our CEO/CTO Pete Armstrong will be unpacking what smart energy policy really means for the built environment in practice. He'll be covering Smart Secondary Storage Equipment, the Smart Readiness Metric, and how thermal storage connects policy ambition to real-world performance.

And our Sales Director Peter McBride will be looking at heat pump performance from the ground up: sizing, controls, cylinder pairing and system design, and why getting hot water right is so often the difference between a system that works and one that doesn't.

Two different angles, one shared theme: hot water is no longer a passive part of the system. It's one of the most useful tools we have for decarbonising homes and helping balance the grid.

Heading to Futurebuild? We'd love to see you there.

EPC reform arrives in 2027, and smart readiness is one of the metrics homes will be assessed against.

For social housing providers, that has real implications for retrofit programmes running now. The cylinder specifications agreed this year, the system choices made in current planned works cycles, these will all be in place when the new assessments begin.

The good news is that smart hot water is one of the most straightforward places to start. A Mixergy cylinder replaces an existing unit without major disruption, responds to time-of-use tariffs, integrates with solar PV, and feeds real-time data back to your asset team.

Read the full blog to understand what smart readiness means in practice and how to get ahead of the incoming framework.

Smart readiness is coming to EPC assessments. This article outlines what social housing providers need to know.
