RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation
By cathodeRay, 7 days ago |

I was just about to do that, and here it is. The CAP columns are the outputs at various OAT and leaving water temps (LWT , flow) in watts. As you may have picked up elsewhere, Midea units suffer from ... | ||

@drei I was very sorry to read this heartbreaking story. It is bad enough to feel you have been ripped off, but being cold at home with your family must make it doubly bad. On top of that, you seem ... | ||

@jamespa how do you get from usage of 30MWh to loss between 10 and 15? | ||

RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation
By JamesPa, 7 days ago |

OK that's great. 3000l = 30MWh. This corresponds, almost certainly, to a loss between 10kW and 15kW. I would probably ask the installer to produce the fabric parameters fed into the program. You ca... | ||

So now I have completed my heat loss calculations and I get a total property heat loss of 12502 against the installer's calculations of 8610. I have used 2006 building regs for all ACH numbers (0.7). | ||

(a) The thermostat will work only if you exceed the desired temperature (in case WC does not work properly), to save you money. (b) if you want independent control in each room, you have to install th... |
