	RE: Power outages and storms: A surprisingly good DNO experience By Sheriff Fatman, 5 days ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	Great to read a good service story. I know that there are priority lists held for households with vulnerable customers in them. Perhaps your household is on a separate list with Scottish Power headed...
	RE: Advice for a novice on Mitsubishi Ecodan 6kW By Sheriff Fatman, 5 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Fair point. The highest frequency of defrosts I'd seen so far had been 6 within a 24 hour period, but my sample size of relevant data is very small.
	Power outages and storms: A surprisingly good DNO experience By Mars, 5 days ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	We’ve lived rurally for just over seven years now, and in that time power outages have been part of the deal. We’ve had several over the years, two of them directly caused by storms, and up until now ...
	RE: Heatpunk Floor plan issues By Mars, 5 days ago Forum Safety, Regulations, Tools, Plumbing & DIY Installations
	It's usually the complete opposite... seldom that Safari is the go-to browser. 😉 Glad it's working though.
	RE: Setback savings - fact or fiction? By RobS, 5 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Hi @sunandair We also have a Mitsubishi Ecodan but we also have OEM's energy monitoring kit installed, so have access to data with far greater accuracy than MelCloud. Our 8kW Ecodan uses less than 0....
	RE: Advice for a novice on Mitsubishi Ecodan 6kW By Majordennisbloodnok, 5 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Whilst I agree with @sheriff-fatman’s point, I checked my Ecodan and found on 6th it was indeed defrosting about once an hour from late morning. Although it had been pretty cold the night before, the ...
	RE: Advice for a novice on Mitsubishi Ecodan 6kW By JamesPa, 5 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	I suspect these are electric mats not wet so totally separate from the rest of the system. This should be obvious by the presence eg of a switch. These don't need to be touched when tuning the syste...
	RE: RDSAP10 effect on existing heat pump EPC rating? By Tim441, 5 days ago Forum Government Schemes, Regulations, Training, Planning & Organisations
	@mike-patrick interesting update - thanks. I've been through an extended process on my EPC update. Mine was done in 2020 pre ashp & solar/batteries Updated recently to take into account changes. B...
	RE: Advice for a novice on Mitsubishi Ecodan 6kW By Sheriff Fatman, 5 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	In Ecodan world there are two bits of terminology that are easily confused. Anti-freeze protection (which MelCloud shows as a running mode as Freeze Stat operation) is when it runs water at low temper...
	RE: Recommended home battery inverters + regulatory matters - help requested By Batpred, 5 days ago Forum Energy Storage
	I remember reading in some inverters. They mandate a separate earth arrangement for the inverter to work on UPS/backup/off-grid mode. It could be because in some countries it is not as easy to get a g...
	RE: RDSAP10 effect on existing heat pump EPC rating? By Aaron, 5 days ago Forum Government Schemes, Regulations, Training, Planning & Organisations
	@mike-patrick If you’ve just invested circa 300k in a renovation, it’s very likely that detailed drawings, specifications and construction build-ups are available. From an energy consultancy point of ...
	RE: RDSAP10 effect on existing heat pump EPC rating? By Mike Patrick, 5 days ago Forum Government Schemes, Regulations, Training, Planning & Organisations
	Finally, good news on my EPC assessment. Having got (as was predicted) nowhere with Elmhurst Energy (accreditation scheme for my previous EPC) I have just commissioned a new EPC. The original one, fol...
