Default Poly tunnel heating system

This is stage 1 of my new improved 2009 heating system. (see pics in my gallery)

Having cost me a fortune to run last year (and not working that great) the 2.5kW electric blow heater has gone to Devon via ebay.

Now for 2009 we have stage 1 which is a 3.9kW air to air heat pump.

output is 3.9kW but input is only 1.25kW. For those not familiar with heat pumps it's basically an air con spilt unit, but applied to heating. Control is via
a standard heating controller, temperature is set to 9 degrees C.

The controller has 2 channels which means the same controller will be also be albe to control...Stage 2 - under construction will be an air to water system feeding a 100M subsoil hose coil, will post photos when it's done.

Anyone need more details just let me know.
