The East Claremon street project included a Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHPs), which are ideal for heritage properties. They offer high efficiency, low carbon emissions, and consistent indoor temperatures.
Older or listed tenement buildings like East Claremont Street often restrict external changes. GSHPs are installed underground, avoiding visual disruption and preserving the original architecture. They also boost long-term energy savings, property value, and sustainability.
Modern systems like GSHPs help stabilise indoor temperatures—especially useful in older buildings prone to cold drafts or temperature swings.
LĂąths supported David Blaikie Architects with the design, energy modelling, energy options, onsite energy audits, air tightness testing and a feasibility report
