Mitsubishi Electric's fourth generation of Ecodan air source heat pumps has been awarded the title of Best Home Energy Solution at the National Home Improvement Council Awards lunch, which was held in London on 21 November.
The award was presented by Baroness Verma, representing the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) and David Carver, chairman of NHIC.
The judges praised the system for providing: 'a sustainable way of reducing the burden of energy costs for tenants and those struggling in these tough economic conditions.'
Mitsubishi Electric's sustainable solutions manager, Martin Fahey, collected the award. He said: 'We were delighted to receive this recognition as we have worked hard to make Ecodan suitable for both new buildings and old. It was particularly encouraging that the judges acknowledged how the technology can help hard pressed households reduce their energy bills.'
Ecodan units have now been installed in thousands of homes nationwide and the system remains the only air source heat pump to receive the prestigious Quiet of the Noise Abatement Society.
