Mars RE: Air-to-Air Heat Pumps & Air Conditioning: UK Heating and Cooling Q&A  

By Mars, 5 days ago

  Our latest Homeowners’ Q&A episode has just dropped, where I was once again joined by Simon Baseden (@ashp-bobba) to compare air-to-air and air-to-water heat pumps for UK homes. We look beyond the...
RE: Are We Sleepwalking Into Another Race to the Bottom?  

By L8Again, 5 days ago

  @Editor is correct. Under MCS, installers are required to provide a flow temperate and an ESTIMATED SCOP as part of the survey. However,…… A key difference here is that the Heat Geek SCOP is not estim...
Mars RE: Air-to-Air Heat Pumps & Air Conditioning: UK Heating and Cooling Q&A  

By Mars, 5 days ago

  To kick things off, here’s our Homeowners’ Q&A podcast with Simon Baseden, covering the practicalities of using air-to-air for heating and cooling, which homes it suits and some of the less obviou...
Mars Air-to-Air Heat Pumps & Air Conditioning: UK Heating and Cooling Q&A  

By Mars, 5 days ago

  Welcome to our dedicated thread for air-to-air heat pumps and air conditioning in UK homes, covering both heating and cooling. Whether you’re considering your first system, comparing installation quot...
Mars RE: Heat Geek Zero Disrupt: Are We Sleepwalking Into Another Race to the Bottom?  

By Mars, 5 days ago

  @jamespa, I think your counterfactual is a powerful one and in principle I agree with its destination. Homeowners should not have to become amateur heating engineers simply to protect themselves from ...
JamesPa RE: Vaillant ecoTEC Plus with sensoCOMFORT and weather compensation  

By JamesPa, 5 days ago

  Yes, its described in the sensocomfort manual. Its also very sensible. Many heat pumps can only do setback by invoking on/off working, bouncing off a thermostat/temperature sensor. Vaillant and som...
JamesPa RE: Heat Geek Zero Disrupt: Are We Sleepwalking Into Another Race to the Bottom?  

By JamesPa, 5 days ago

  @editor I think you may be somewhat missing the point here, perhaps over influenced by the way the industry has conditioned us to think and, in a way, arguing against a change in the industry which yo...
trebor12345 RE: Vaillant ecoTEC Plus with sensoCOMFORT and weather compensation  

By trebor12345, 5 days ago

  JamesPa Thank you for the reply. Its all about configuration. So now with my schedule set for overnight and have set a set-back, all working fine on the tests I ran today. I didn't know that the set...
Mars RE: Heat Geek Zero Disrupt: Are We Sleepwalking Into Another Race to the Bottom?  

By Mars, 5 days ago

  @l8again from memory (and I am quite happy to be corrected on this) I think MCS has for some time expected flow temperature and predicted performance to be presented together, rather than asking the c...
RE: Are We Sleepwalking Into Another Race to the Bottom?  

By L8Again, 5 days ago

  @editor How many installers actually give both a maximum flow temp and SCOP? I believe that Octopus gives a design flow temp and a standard estimate benchmark SCOP rather than a bespoke design SCOP. ...
Mars RE: Heat Geek Zero Disrupt: Are We Sleepwalking Into Another Race to the Bottom?  

By Mars, 5 days ago

  That’s precisely why the design flow temperature and underlying calculations are so important IMO. If the heat loss remained at 5.86kW, upgrading eight radiators should have enabled a lower flow tempe...
Batpred RE: Vaillant ecoTEC Plus with sensoCOMFORT and weather compensation  

By Batpred, 5 days ago

  Well, at the moment I am busy as we are experiencing some comms glitches - that I am trying to get Vaillant to address (beyond saying "please reboot"). But if this misalignment with TOU continues, th...
