I’m Pete, and each episode I sit down with installers, designers, apprentices, manufacturers and policymakers to talk honestly about what’s really happening with heat pumps, low‑temperature systems and the Future Homes Standard.

In this opening episode of the Heat Exchange, we dive into the story behind why this all exists in the first place.  

Drawing on over 20 years of real‑world experience, we unpack the confusion and myths around heat pumps, explain what the heating transition actually looks like in people’s homes, and set out the vision behind the Future Home Heating website and the Heat Exchange podcast.  

We talk directly to three groups:  

  • Homeowners: Why the right people and process matter more than the “latest tech”, and how this community can help you find genuinely skilled engineers.
  • Apprentices and new entrants: Why heating is a modern, future‑proof career with huge opportunity in low‑carbon systems.
  • Engineers: How your existing skills are vital, and how we can evolve together from traditional heating to sustainable, low‑temperature systems.

If you want practical guidance for the heating transition and believe in building a community of trusted, high‑standard engineers, this episode sets the scene for what Future Home Heating is all about.
