Hello you knowledgeable beings of the fediverse.
I have a heat recovery unit waiting to go in while I seal up my house, but it's becoming increasingly obvious now that where I live in about 10 years time the climate will necessitate some kind of cooling as well, so as I've not purchased the originally planned air to water heat pump, what would be my options?

Location is the South West bit of Ireland

Boosts appreciated

Thought this article from Low Tech Magazine was very interesting, and encourages me to think of ways to reduce temperature, besides just AC, during the upcoming heatwave:
