RE: DHW Efficiency
By Morgan, 2 weeks ago |
|
| @transparent I am running an anti-legionella cycle (60c), but I need to remember how to get to it again to see the intervals. But that needs to remain, doesn't it? | ||

Mitsu PAR-WT60 Wireless Controller
By DavidAlgarve, 2 weeks ago |
|
| It is early days and rather warm weather, but I think that my Wireless Controller is controlling the radiator system, but the 'water tap' touch switch does not seem to have any effect and certainly do... | ||

RE: DHW Efficiency
By Transparent, 2 weeks ago |
|
| Yes, please do try it @morgan and let us know what you find. How long would you need to conduct such a trial in order to know the effect on COP with a reasonable level of accuracy? Can you also say i... | ||

RE: My experience with 3 heat pump surveys: Heat Geek, British Gas & Octopus
By DREI, 2 weeks ago |
|
| OK so from what I see now, the fans look similar to fan units used in data centres on servers, routers, network switches, storage device etc. Assuming these fans are powered, so need to be plug... | ||

By jords, 2 weeks ago |

| @editor I can understand why. But it’s a shame they don’t give you the details that go into the outcomes. One would assume the formulas they are using are the same. So the variables they put in must d... | ||

RE: My experience with 3 heat pump surveys: Heat Geek, British Gas & Octopus
By DREI, 2 weeks ago |
|
| In all seriousness, if the engineer doesn't use thermal imaging and a air tightness measuring unit, then it will never be accurate, just best guess estimate, and none of them will be correct, e... | ||

RE: DHW Efficiency
By Morgan, 2 weeks ago |
|
| @editor is that correct? My installer set DHW to 50c and suggested it remain there. I wonder if a 5c difference will leave me with sufficient hot water. (250L tank). I might have to give it a try be... | ||

By JamesPa, 2 weeks ago |

RE: My experience with 3 heat pump surveys: Heat Geek, British Gas & Octopus
By JamesPa, 2 weeks ago |
|

RE: My experience with 3 heat pump surveys: Heat Geek, British Gas & Octopus
By Judith, 2 weeks ago |
|
| The air changes per hour in the leakage values is the most guessed parameter. Assessors have guidelines based on the house build date. If you have an actual measurement then the best designers can use... | ||

RE: DHW Efficiency
By Mars, 2 weeks ago |
|
| @transparent, that’s a bang on suggestion. 45C DHW tends to be the sweet efficiency spot for most heat pumps. | ||
