[Heating/HW advice needed..]

Thanks Big Mac, sounds like good advice. Would air source not provide enough heat for the main house?

[Heating/HW advice needed..]

I've recently bought a 5-bed farm house with attached coach house near Cast in Finistere. Both in need of complete renovation. We will be converting the main house into Chambre d'Hote, (5 beds), with the coach house converted to 3 gites, (5 bed, 3 bed & 2 bed). Neither building has any CH or HW system.

I wasn't planning on fitting CH to the gites, so would a ballon be the best solution for HW? As for the main house, what would you recommend - I've been looking into air source pump for CH, can these also heat the HW sufficiently, or would it be best to include electric element as backup.

Any advice greatly appreciated...

[Recommendations for Electrician]

I've recently bought a large farm house with attached coach house in Finistere, both in need of renovation/re-wire, etc. Can anyone recommend an electrician who provides a consultancy service - i.e. they provide the advice/instructions/testing and I do the donkey work. Thanks.
