	RE: ASHP heat output monitoring By cathodeRay, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	But Italian is still a beautiful language! I agree that over the longer (but still not very long) period the COP appears to be less than 2, which is not good. If I were in your position, I would star...
	RE: ASHP heat output monitoring By Carlo, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@cathoderay The buffer got lost in translation, it is a volumizer. In Italian it is referred to as "puffer" for some reason or "volano termico", thermal flywheel. The output of the heat pump is connec...
	RE: 300 Liter Tank - Do I have to heat it all? By AllyFish, 1 week ago Forum Domestic Hot Water & Cylinders
	Hi @martingale, welcome! You can't really have too big a DHW cylinder, but you can have one too small. If it's well insulated modern unvented cylinder, as it should be with a ASHP, the standing losses...
	RE: 300 Liter Tank - Do I have to heat it all? By bornagain, 1 week ago Forum Domestic Hot Water & Cylinders
	If you could get hold of a Stainless steel container of Vitrified High Level waste, then it has a heat output of around 2KW. There are difficulties storing these containers due to the massive quantity...
	RE: ASHP heat output monitoring By cathodeRay, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@carlo - Do you have any more recent readings, even the current ones. Just a few days in mid winter immediately after installation isn't much to go on. You will already know this I suspect, but worth ...
	RE: 300 Liter Tank - Do I have to heat it all? By JamesPa, 1 week ago Forum Domestic Hot Water & Cylinders
	That sounds like change of use from domestic to mixed domestic/industrial (or possibly sui generis) so would probably need planning consent.
	RE: 300 Liter Tank - Do I have to heat it all? By Transparent, 1 week ago Forum Domestic Hot Water & Cylinders
	Hmmm. You would need to part-fill the cylinder using a material with a lower Heat Capacity than water (4186J/Kg/°C)and a higher density, so that it sinks to the bottom of the tank. The density of wate...
	RE: Share Your Experiences with Heat Pump Manufacturer Support By Toodles, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@terry1812 Oh Good! Pleased to help if I can! Regards, Toodles.
	RE: Do we really need a mass upgrade of electricity infrastructure at the level we have been told, or even home batteries? By Transparent, 1 week ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	It's unclear to me how the Smart Control project work by Salford University and Hildebrand would be used.At this stage it appears to be raw research, rather than yielding any particular product. Unlik...
	RE: Share Your Experiences with Heat Pump Manufacturer Support By Terry1812, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@toodles , thank you so much. Spoke with Cinergi today, they were very helpful and are hopefully going to do a technical appraisal of my system. Feeling a little less stressed now!
	RE: Have Consumers Been Lied to About the Efficiency of Heat Pumps Made in China? By Mars, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@pavel, this isn't about discrediting Chinese products... it’s about transparency, integrity in testing and protecting homeowners who make decisions based on claimed performance and government-backed ...
	RE: Have Consumers Been Lied to About the Efficiency of Heat Pumps Made in China? By Pavel, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	The actual impact on device functionality = zero. The author of this article is just trying to discredit Chinese products. If he had studied the compressor manufacturer's specifications (in this case,...
