Mitsubishi Electric launches The Heating Hub with architect Dermot Bannon
Your home heating questions answered. A New Online Platform to Demystify Heat Pumps for Homeowners, Installers, and anyone interested in heating their homes more efficiently.
Mitsubishi Electric recently announced the launch of The Heating Hub, an interactive online resource designed to help homeowners, plumbers, installers, and anyone curious about sustainable heating gain a clear, practical understanding of heat pump technology. Developed in collaboration with renowned architect and television presenter Dermot Bannon, The Heating Hub provides a trusted space where people can find expert guidance, straightforward answers, and inspiring real-life stories about low-carbon heating.
Why Dermot Bannon Is the Perfect Partner
Dermot Bannon is not just a celebrated architect known for his innovative residential designs; he’s also a homeowner who embraced heat pump technology early. In 2019, he installed a Mitsubishi Electric Ecodan air-to-water heat pump in his own Dublin home as part of a major renovation. Over the past several years, he has experienced the day-to-day benefits first-hand: consistent comfort, lower energy bills, and a significantly reduced carbon footprint.
Because he has lived with a heat pump for years, Dermot brings authentic, practical insight that homeowners and installers can trust. His reputation for clear communication and his passion for sustainable design make him the ideal guide for anyone exploring this technology.

Shane Toye, Consultant Sales Engineer, Mitsubishi Electric, says that Mitsubishi Electric is committed to supporting Ireland’s transition to low-carbon heating, and the Heating Hub is part of that journey – combining technical expertise with homeowner-friendly education.
“We know there’s still confusion about heat pumps, how they operate, the installation process and how they fit into existing homes,” Shane says. “The Heating Hub puts reliable information in one place and features someone who has truly walked the walk. We partnered with Dermot Bannon because he’s not only one of Ireland’s leading authorities in home renovation, but he actually put a Mitsubishi Electric Ecodan heat pump into his own home in 2019, which adds to his credibility as not just a trusted voice in home design, but as a homeowner and user of the technology. The idea is that together the Heating Hub will combine Mitsubishi Electric’s technical expertise with Dermot’s ability to inspire and educate, helping people confidently choose sustainable, future-proof heating solutions”
