United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
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.

The air to water thing is huge in the Netherlands too. I think it is because it's the traditional way of heating the house. So people looking to replace it will want the same thing.
It's even so that the word heat pump only is used for the air-water units, not the air-air ones, those are called airconditioners.
We changed to an electric boiler and air heat pumps, and have archived quite the reduction, certainly when the gas price went sky high.
But there is a lot of resistance to the idea.
The names and tech all overlap and it gets messy. But you can certainly buy an ac unit that doesn't heat. Hence why I specified heat pump, it is a heat pump.
