Shell UK and PassivSystems have launched a smart hybrid heating system, which will look to reduce the
heating bills of homeowners and lower emissions. Announced on Tuesday 1 October, the B-Snug system
will encompass an air source heat pump and a traditional boiler, where intelligent controls monitor the
temperature to automatically switch between two heat sources: a Samsung Air Source Heat Pump and the
customer’s existing boiler. The system will utilise PassivSystems’ technology platform and will be delivered
as one of its Advanced Smart Control Services.
