Ampworth
UK solar and heat pump calculators following MCS standards for sizing, costs, noise and grid connection rules.
Ampworth provides calculators for UK domestic solar PV and air source heat pump installations. Tools estimate system size, annual output, running costs, noise levels, hot water demand, and grid connection procedures using official MCS methods and standards.
Try asking Muse: "How much would it cost to run a heat pump instead of my gas boiler, and what size heat pump do I need for my house?"

How to add it to Muse
Not in Muse's Connectors list yet, but Muse can still use it. Copy the request below and paste it into Muse. Muse asks before it shares anything with the app's site. Meta does not review apps used this way, so only use ones you trust. We tested this in the Muse app on September 24, 2026: Muse used an app's link directly this way and returned a live answer.

Also use it in ChatGPT or Claude
Ampworth is a remote MCP server, so any assistant that can add a custom connector by link can use it. Same link, same tools.
Add it to ChatGPT
- 1
Open ChatGPT settings
In ChatGPT, open Settings, then Connectors (called Apps & Connectors on some accounts).
- 2
Turn on developer mode
Under Advanced settings, switch on Developer mode. That is what lets you add a connector by link.
- 3
Create the connector
Choose Create, give it a name, paste the link as the MCP server URL, and save. If it needs a sign-in, ChatGPT asks for it here.
- 4
Use it in a chat
Start a chat, open the tools menu, pick the connector, and ask. ChatGPT asks before it runs a tool the first time.
Custom connectors need a paid ChatGPT plan, and on Team, Enterprise and Edu accounts only an admin can add them. Our "Working" label means the server answered us; it cannot tell whether your plan lets you add it. All connectors that work in ChatGPT
Add it to Claude
- 1
Open Claude settings
In Claude, open Settings, then Connectors.
- 2
Add a custom connector
Choose Add custom connector, give it a name, and paste the link.
- 3
Connect and use it
If it needs a sign-in, Claude sends you to it. Then turn the connector on in a chat from the tools menu and ask.
Custom connectors are available on paid Claude plans; on Team and Enterprise accounts an admin may need to add them. Our "Working" label means the server answered us; it cannot tell whether your plan lets you add it. All connectors that work in Claude

Technical details: safety screening, tools, response time and recent checks
Response time at the last check: 93ms. Worked in n/a of checks over 30 days.
Screening · October 29, 2026
Screened, no issues found
Screening looks for known threats and hidden instructions at the time of the check, and runs again weekly and whenever the tool list changes. It cannot see the server's code, so only connect what you need and review what Muse asks to do. How screening works.

connection_routeWork out which ENA connection procedure a domestic installation of solar panels, batteries or both falls under: connect first and notify the distribution network operator within 28 days, or apply and wait for approval before anything is connected. The rules are the ENA's engineerget_documentFetch the full text of one guide, article or set of questions by its slug, as Markdown, not HTML. Slugs come from search_documents or list_documents. The answer carries the MCS documents the text draws on, and the ids of any calculators on this site that do the arithmetic the texheat_pump_noiseCalculate the sound pressure level an air source heat pump produces at an assessment position, and whether it meets the 37 dB(A) permitted development noise limit, using the method in MCS 020. The formula is Lp = Lw + 10 log(Q / 4.pi.r^2) - Ab. Lw is the A-weighted sound POWER leheat_pump_running_costCompare what a household spends heating on its current fuel with what the same heat would cost from a heat pump. The heat demand is worked out from the household's own metered fuel use, not from a model, because a year of bills describes a particular house far better than any estheat_pump_sizeEstimate the heat pump a UK house needs, and what it would cost to run against the fuel it burns now. IMPORTANT: MIS 3005-D requires a heat pump to be sized from a room-by-room heat loss calculation to BS EN 12831, and nothing here replaces that. Say so whenever you report a resuhot_water_cylinderWork out the daily hot water demand of a dwelling and the size of cylinder a heat pump needs, using the formula in MIS 3005-D 3.5.2 and the BS 6700 guidance reproduced in MGD 007. The demand is 45 litres a day for each of N, where N is the greater of the number of bedrooms plus olist_calculatorsLists every calculator on this server, with the standard behind it and whether it is the whole-system sizing calculator or one of the single-method ones, plus the reference data a caller needs to build a valid request: the compass directions and their orientations, the shading delist_documentsLists every document, optionally filtered by kind ('guide', 'article' or 'faq'), by category, or, for guides, by the reader they are written for. Guides are shelved by perspective: 'considering', 'buying', 'selling', 'installing' and 'learning'. The first four are plain language radiator_flow_temperatureWork out the flow temperature a heat pump must produce to heat a room through a given radiator, and the resulting MCS Heat Emitter Guide star rating, following section 4 of MGD 007. This is the calculation that decides whether a heat pump will be cheap or expensive to run. A heatroom_heat_lossCalculate the design heat loss of a single room in watts, following BS EN 12831 as MIS 3005-D applies it. This is the figure a heat pump is sized from and the figure the radiator in that room must be able to deliver. BS EN 12831 is a room-by-room method. Run this once for each hesearch_documentsSearch the guides, articles and questions for material on a UK home energy subject. Use this first, before answering from memory, whenever a question concerns UK heat pump or solar PV practice: how a system is sized, what a standard requires, what a quotation should contain, whatsolar_pv_outputEstimate the annual AC electricity output of a UK solar photovoltaic system, in kWh, using the standard estimation method that MIS 3002 requires every MCS certified installer to use. The method is: annual output = kWp x Kk x SF, where Kk is read from the MCS irradiance dataset fosolar_pv_self_consumptionEstimate what proportion of a domestic solar PV system's annual output is consumed in the house and what proportion is exported, using the lookup tables in MGD 003. The tables are not a model. They come from half-hourly monitoring of real British households by Loughborough Universolar_pv_shadingConvert a completed MCS sunpath shading assessment into a shade factor, using the procedure in MGD 005. The MCS sunpath chart is divided into 84 segments, each worth one per cent of the year's useful irradiance. An assessor stands at the middle of where the array will go, plots wsolar_pv_system_sizeWork out the solar PV system a UK home needs: the capacity in kWp, the number of panels, the battery to go with it, and what it would do to the electricity bill. This runs the MCS arithmetic backwards. The other solar calculators here each answer one question about a system somebLink
