Hi Neigbors
We need a heatpump!
Could anybody recommend a company selling and installing heat pumps?
I have heard that there are quite a few bad installers around.
so it would be very good to know which ones are good and reasonably priced with a guarantee.
thank for your help.

The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free. For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas: Buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food pantry, help someone with a broken down car or flat tire, bring treats into work for colleagues, send an encouraging text to someone who needs it, let a car into the traffic ahead of you, take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself, write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood, or surprise loved ones with a visit.
This month also coincides with World Humanitarian Day on August 19th and Random Acts of Kindness Day (New Zealand) which is on September 1st.

Business owners on Albert St were given one-hour "how-to" Facebook sessions as foot traffic on the road has declined due to the country's most expensive transport project. Do you think businesses should be given financial support when there's big construction projects like the City Rail Link?
