      Why would they need more airco when many houses and apartments still don't even have proper shutters for windows and many people still don't know you should keep your windows closed during peak heat hours, many roofs still barely insulated and they turned all their yards and driveways into concrete and asphalt hellscapes. A nice adult tree in your yard does more than an airco, fight me.

      Overall, I completely agree with this comment. But I live in the middle of the forest, completely surrounded by trees and when it hits 35c that air conditioning is very needed. Trees are nice but an air conditioner they are not.

          The last years saw up to 50°C in Northern Africa already. This will be the fate of Southern Europe, as the peak temperatures in the center and North of Europe will go to 45°C.

          As the mean temperature rises roughly linear, so do the peak temperatures, but at a much faster rate. So 1,5-2°C increase in mean temperature often correspond to 5-7°C increase in peak temperatures.

          Well, that depends on whether the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation stops working or not as that's what, for example, means that Lisbon which is roughly at the same latitude as New York has a temperature which is about 5 - 10C higher.

          One of the weirdest effect of Global Warming might very well be that the westernmost parts of Europe get colder (though who knows what other side effects the stopping of the AMOC will bring beyond reducing the temperature moderating effects of the Atlantic along the Westernmost coasts of Europe).

            There's a huge difference in that between the UK and countries further to the south: for example, pretty much all dwellings in Portugal have outside window shutters whilst in the UK it's incredibly rare (instead they have inside heavy courtains, so the light goes into the house and the INSIDE gets absorbed by transformed into heat by the courtains) but on the other hand housing insulation is generaly complete total crap in Portugal, but less so in the UK (still not at Scandinavia or Russian levels of efficiency, but way better than Portugal) so in Winter unless one uses massive amounts of electricity/gas for heating, it's literally colder indoors in Portugal than in Britain.

            At the very least both Portugal and Spain are much better adapted to higher temperatures than elsewhere in Europe, and that's anchored on traditional techniques (such as outside window shutters, houses painted in light colors and the type of roofing used) rather than the brute-force energy-heavy techniques (such as heavy use of Aircon) so common in places like the US.

              I'm doing all of that have have good insulation, ground floor. Doesn't help when the temperature never drops below 20°C for a week (and I literally got up at 5:00 when it was coldest to air out my flat).

              So yeah, I'm getting an AC this summer.

                    Looking further into it, the "heat pumps" we've been pushing seem just for the ones that heat water, and then pump that round your radiators/out your taps.

                    The exclusion is for anything that moves air.

                      A heatwave continues to grip large parts of Europe, with authorities in many countries issuing health warnings amid searing temperatures.

                      Southern Spain is the worst-affected region, with temperatures in the mid-40s Celsius recorded in Seville and neighbouring areas.

                      A new heat record for June of 46C was set on Saturday in the town of El Granado, according to Spain's national weather service, which also said this month is on track to be the hottest June on record.

                        While it is hard to link individual extreme weather events to climate change, heatwaves are becoming more common and more intense due to climate change.

                        Not that hard after all.

                        We cant link this unusual weather to Climate change.. but its unusual weather thats never been seen before at this frequency or ferocity. Its a mystery~!

                                But wouldn't flying to Mallorca be going towards the heat (from most of Europe)?

                                  I think this is the official bit.

                                  https://www.gov.uk/apply-boiler-upgrade-scheme/what-you-can-get

                                  It must replace an existing fossil fuel system, and you can't be left with a hybrid system (e.g. heat source plus boiler)

                                  Meaning it must heat water somewhere, using the heat pump. Can you even get a system that heats water and air? And would that be included in this scheme? Some guy on reddit says they're excluded, he may be full of shit.

                                  I'm assuming there's a much more detailed guide than this for installers, full of technical jargon about what is and isn't included, but I can't find that.

                                    You cannot get a grant for a hybrid heat pump system (for example a combination of gas boiler and air source heat pump).

                                    I think it just requires you to have a heat pump for all your water and heating. There appears to be pumps that do both, (mentioned in this article) but that's more research than I can get away with while 'working'.

                                        This is why most places have a strict one at a time policy on the big water slides. It's not worth it girls.
