TC, Lourinha I am pleased to say the heat pump is working very well and I am very happy with the installation.

The microgenerator, can choose between one of two purchase rates (bonificada - subsidised ou geral / general). The general rate will means that it will take 30 years to payback your investment (these figures come from market studies carried out in Portugal by a governmental department).
