	RE: Share Your Experiences with Heat Pump Manufacturer Support By Cold123456, 6 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@jamespa These may well be removed in the near future but I'll need to discuss the options for the two zones as it's split using the hives rather than the controller. The hive settings are a specific ...
	RE: Share Your Experiences with Heat Pump Manufacturer Support By Toodles, 6 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@jamespa Indeed they are; we had a NeoStat device as this I think was the default device fitted by the installers. The first thing I did was set the thermostat 2 degrees above maximum required and set...
	RE: Share Your Experiences with Heat Pump Manufacturer Support By JamesPa, 6 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Bit of a concern here. Hive and heat pumps don't really play well together. External controls, other than the few specifically designed for heat pumps, are, in most cases, best avoided other than as...
	RE: Share Your Experiences with Heat Pump Manufacturer Support By Cold123456, 6 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	This is regarding an annual service review by Mitsubishi - overall a negative experience: I've been struggling with the heating and felt that the heat pump (Mitsubishi Ecodan 8.5kW) was not performi...
	RE: New Vaillant aroTherm Plus in black - When will it come to the UK? By Mars, 6 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@sandy, I'll send Vaillant an email tomorrow and see if they can provide any timelines.
	RE: New Vaillant aroTherm Plus in black - When will it come to the UK? By ianjoyner, 6 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	I was wondering this, maybe it will take a bit longer for the UK factory to switch over. It's hard to know if you're comparing like for like, but from the ErP documents the new one looks a little bit ...
	RE: Long term efficiency degradation By Scalextrix, 6 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@jamespa yes as I thought thanks. We have a reasonable design I think, certainly not the best but pretty good considering diminishing returns. Done a lot of work to the house so it's got decent insu...
	RE: Long term efficiency degradation By JamesPa, 6 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	It's a good question to which I have never seen any answers. The princial mechanisms I can think of are wear and tear on the compressor and bunging up of the heat exchanger. Both should be very sl...
	Long term efficiency degradation By Scalextrix, 6 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	I'm pleased to say we just signed a contract to install an ASHP on our home. As part of this decision we have been thinking about the spark gap and running costs. Of course, we don't know the efficien...
	Fast DHW setting on Midea (Clivet) heat pump By benson, 7 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Hello everyone, We have a Clivet ASHP and smarthome app. Not sure if anyone else uses this function but on rare occasions we need a DHW boost- if we have visitors for example and 6 people are showerin...
	RE: Who has a V2G EV installation By Majordennisbloodnok, 7 days ago Forum Energy Storage
	I agree, but a word of caution. V2X is also sometimes used in a different context making for quite a confusion. My VW ID3 supports V2X in the sense that it as a vehicle talks to other vehicles (the X ...
	RE: Sunamp Thermino Heat Battery By Toodles, 7 days ago Forum Domestic Hot Water & Cylinders
	@jamespa A few days after the installation had been commissioned, I had a ‘phone call from someone within the hallowed temples (AKA MCS) to enquire if my system had been installed to my satisfaction a...
