Last week they became too divisive for the BBC, when the presenter Evan Davis was forced to cancel his Happy Heat Pump podcast because of the fear, in his words, that he was “steering into areas of public controversy”<a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/HeatPumps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HeatPumps</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/UK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UK</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Disinformation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Disinformation</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/BBC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BBC</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Feart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Feart</a>

Michael MagrasDoes anyone out there know anything about heat pumps? We were thinking of having them installed, but a local contractor in Maine told us it would cost us $38,000 to put in a system. I was under the impression that a system would cost $4,000 to $10,000. Am I wrong to think that $38,000 is way too expensive? <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/HeatPumps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HeatPumps</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/HeatPump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HeatPump</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Home" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Home</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/House" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#House</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Winter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Winter</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Maine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Maine</a>

Overwhelmingly people posting here approve of heat pumps and want to see more of them…that’s great news!So what makes them controversial?

JulesI hate how objective verifiable facts have somehow been swept up in the manufactured <a href="https://social.coop/tags/CultureWars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CultureWars</a> and become politically controversial. Masks and vaccines prevent infections. 20mph speed limits in Wales reduce road deaths and injuries. <a href="https://social.coop/tags/HeatPumps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HeatPumps</a> are energy and cost effective. "Woman" is not a strict biological category.

Emeritus Prof Christopher MayIf heat pumps are part of the necessary green transition, then it is pretty clear the economic model for energy needs t change to make the switch a worthwhile project for households.... certainly they may be greener, but in the UK's economy, still experiencing an ongoing cost-of-living crisis, most households cannot afford to transit to heat pumps in the current market structure(s).<a href="https://zirk.us/tags/GreenTransition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GreenTransition</a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/energy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#energy</a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/HeatPumps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HeatPumps</a> <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/apr/10/gas-boilers-heat-pumps-uk-grants-report?utm_term=67f767a3f8d312ccab00bd2718838348&utm_campaign=BusinessToday&utm_source=esp&utm_medium=Email&CMP=bustoday_email" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/apr/10/gas-boilers-heat-pumps-uk-grants-report?utm_term=67f767a3f8d312ccab00bd2718838348&utm_campaign=BusinessToday&utm_source=esp&utm_medium=Email&CMP=bustoday_email</a>
