My turn, this describes the future installation, only the heat pump and UFH are operational at the moment.

Arrangement: Low temp HP + wood boiler backup

Area of Country: Lyon, France

Insulation Level: R=5.7 walls, R=7 roof

Heat Loss Calculation: 8-12kW @ Amb. Temp, of: -7C

Type of Controller: Modulating

Type of Control: Weather Compensation, Flow Temperature, Room Temperature

System Type: UFH, Radiant ceilings, Fan coils for cooling

Total Output of Heat Emitters: Way more than necessary. Concrete slabs alone can store at least 30kW and release through the day.

Buffer Tank or Low Loss Header: 1000l tank with instant DHW coil used as Buffer on wood boiler, heat pump will heat it for DHW also. For regular heating, heat pump direct to slabs & radiant ceilings.
