	RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation By Transparent, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	So that's the flexible rubber pipe which connects to the back of the external heat pump.We're looking at the outer stainless steel braid. The insulation has been arranged so as to channel rainwater in...
	RE: Octopus tariffs - a quick comparison By Scalextrix, 1 week ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	I'm on Tracker at the moment and intend to remain on it for the first year of ASHP running so I have the best idea of cost comparison. To me Cosy seems like it would be more expensive unless you have ...
	RE: Electricity price predictions By ChandyKris, 1 week ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	@bontwoody Totally agree. Even without a heat pump, if a 5 kWh battery helps storing the PV power generated during the daytime in spring, summer and autumn, and avoid using the grid in the evenings, i...

	@cathoderay of course it's 28mm diameter 🤣 I measured the circumference and didn't do the conversion. Glad someone is awake. I've attached 2 more photos of the offending pipework, which runs ...
	RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation By Tasos, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@pash44pump I don't know the procedures in UK, but in Greece every property has an energy certificate, which is the starting point for heating/cooling considerations. These are provided by certified e...
	RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation By cathodeRay, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Agreed. The WC and thermostat settings only become relevant when the system is running, which can't that far away now, but we haven't got there yet. The two current questions are: (1) OD (and material...
	RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation By pash44pump, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@tasos There are room thermostats which call for heat from the system. As to whether the system runs according to the WC settings (which are recently added), I don't know yet. My priority at the momen...
	RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation By cathodeRay, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	I very much doubt that! I am talking about the primary pipework to and from the heat pump, inside the inadequate black insulation. In a 'normal' installation, it will often be 28mm (OD, outside diamet...
	RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation By Tasos, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	What are the weather compensation settings ? Are you sure the system runs according to these settings ? Are there internal thermostats at low temperatures that stop the system ? because these operate ...
	RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation By pash44pump, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@cathoderay thank you. External pipework is 90mm and the Midea is 12kW (my prior typo). I will ask installer for heat loss calculation now.
	RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation By cathodeRay, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@pash44pump - thanks for the photos and 'scope' document. Both the installation and the 'scope' document appear somewhat chaotic, and, so far as I can see, there is still no formal heat loss survey/ca...
	RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation By pash44pump, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	This is the scope document for my system to follow up on the heat loss pages I posted earlier in the thread. Thanks Attachment : Scope.docx
