	RE: What crazy nonsense are inverter limits and why are they imposed? By Old_Scientist, 7 days ago Forum Energy Storage
	@howardp99 Yes, I get how the inverter rating is limiting, especially during the evening peak in winter when cooking. I figure our ASHP and background usage may be 1.5kW and the electric cooker is ano...
	RE: is a home battery without an EV worth it? By Old_Scientist, 7 days ago Forum Energy Storage
	You would think, but when I had my Powerwall 3 installed, the main installer/electrician was here for 3 full days doing the battery and gateway installation, and the solar crew another full day for tw...
	RE: What crazy nonsense are inverter limits and why are they imposed? By HowardP99, 7 days ago Forum Energy Storage
	@old_scientist When I applied for a G99 I asked for a 12kW inverter and was "offered" a 7kW inverter with a 4kW export limit. They agreed that the export limit can be through a password protected set...
	RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation By Tasos, 7 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Referring to an early point, night time firing could be caused by legionella precautions, could it not?
	RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation By JamesPa, 7 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@pash4pump Ive looked at the photos and would comment as follows: The internal insulation seems better than the external, I can see a couple of untaped corners which should be redone but I doubt this...
	RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation By cathodeRay, 7 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Yes, I see that now, but I wonder what its internal diameter is? A very short length may not matter that much, but longer lengths may impede flow. My line of thinking was that if the primary pipework ...
	RE: Electricity price predictions By Scalextrix, 7 days ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	It's windy down South today, which means our electricity is dirty and expensive because most of the wind turbines are elsewhere.
	RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation By Tasos, 7 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@pash44pump I don't think piping is the problem (though it may increase running cost). Your pump should be able to deliver max outflow temperature of 60C at -1C outside temperature. This should be mor...
	RE: Electricity price predictions By bontwoody, 7 days ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	@chandykris That matches my figures pretty closely, I reckon I save about a £1 per day on using electricity on the overnight tariff plus you have the difficult to quantify advantage of the battery pic...
	RE: Midea ASHP – how to set weather compensation By Transparent, 7 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	So that's the flexible rubber pipe which connects to the back of the external heat pump.We're looking at the outer stainless steel braid. The insulation has been arranged so as to channel rainwater in...
	RE: Octopus tariffs - a quick comparison By Scalextrix, 7 days ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	I'm on Tracker at the moment and intend to remain on it for the first year of ASHP running so I have the best idea of cost comparison. To me Cosy seems like it would be more expensive unless you have ...
	RE: Electricity price predictions By ChandyKris, 7 days ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	@bontwoody Totally agree. Even without a heat pump, if a 5 kWh battery helps storing the PV power generated during the daytime in spring, summer and autumn, and avoid using the grid in the evenings, i...
