Wow great to see so many new ASHP trialists popping up here on a Friday afternoon, @mjc and @jetowey.

 

Time to get those profiles updated so you can join in the great discussions we’ve got going on in our exclusive forum area. 

 

As above introduce yourself here, then share your experience in those research threads (featured on the Smart Home Trials area homepage)

 

Great to have more of you here! :relaxed:

Hi,

We had an ASHP installed in June as part of the Government trial. Early days but enjoying every moment of it, and a cosy warm house, so far!

Howdy @osborner !

You’re just in time for some extra research actually. Let me rub a magic lamp to summon the Genie @Tim_OVO so I get him to grant you three wishes. Sometimes, that Genie doesn’t work though, so luckily, I also have a backup Genie @Jess_OVO as well. Who knows, you might get six wishes!

Bing Bong.

Would @Jess_OVO or @Tim_OVO please come to the customer service desk. Thank you.

I’m glad OVO have got around to sending out emails inviting participants to engage on the forum. It will hopefully give a much better picture of how the trials are going.

Hi Tim

We are part of the OVO Energy Smart Home trial. 
 

I have been asked to answer questions by Tristan. I believe you will tell me what to do next.

Hi @Caroline Barbour . I suspect @Tim_OVO has clocked off and will be into his second glass of wine by now 🍷 But he'll get you into the treehouse as soon as he can tomorrow.

Hi @Caroline Barbour 

 

It’s great to have you here with us. 

 

M.ister would usually be right with me clocking off, but not tonight. There’s just too many good threads to read! Speaking of which, see the comment below from Jess_OVO. Those are the topics Tristan mentioned!
