Cost of running my new Air source surprising me - please help on most efficient way to run it!
Hi @peter
Thanks for the update. It may be that you do not need to adjust the weather compensation, since auto adaptation should compensate for any differences that may occur. You can download all the installation and operation manuals should you require more detailed information.
I am pleased to see that your energy consumption is now only 25% to 30% of the previous day. Well worth a little time and effort.
To edit the compensation curve on the FTC, enter the menu by holding down the menu button instead of pressing it. The menu will look the same at first, but when you go into the options such as Heating, you will see extra options, including an Edit option for the compensation curve.

Without me having to go through the manual again, is there a monitoring section within the controller menu, where it is possible to see what the flow and return temperatures are actually reading?
Much easier to do this via the melcoud app or web browser. It can show hourly temperatures for flow/return/tank temp etc.
