his month the HVR Awards are being held in a digital format, in order to follow the Government’s COVID-19 guidelines. Nevertheless, we are very excited about our event which will take place on October 15 on www.hvrawards.com and we hope you will all be able to join us on the day.


Our judges, Ross Anderson, Martyn Cooper, Duncan Sibbald, Lisa-Jayne Cooke, Stewart Clements and TJ Ducan-Moir have done a sterling job examining the entries and choosing this year’s winners and we are very grateful for their time and effort. Even though the Awards will not be held in the usual format, there will be some highlights. In addition to announcing our 10th Anniversary Star Product of the Year chosen from last year’s product winners, look out for new categories – the Domestic Product of the Year; The Net Zero Hero Award and the Collaboration of the Year. See who’s in the final on pg 9.


• Elsewhere in this issue, we see the return of the heat pump guide with stories, case studies and technical details from many of the major heat pump companies across the UK. With the launch of the Government’s Green Homes Grant offering up to £5,000 for efficiency improvements including heat pumps, the timing for this guide could not be better. (Pg 23)


Other features include Sustainability Ductwork and HVRd for domestic installers.
