Daikin Octopus installation update - I saw my first defrost. 😍😂
@mike-patrick it looks as if your pump is in a local hollow, does the cold air from the pump hang around there or does it dissipate? Have any of the experts you’ve used to try to improve the performance suggested this is a factor?
2kW + Growatt & 4kW +Sunnyboy PV on south-facing roof Solar thermal. 9.5kWh Givenergy battery with AC3. MVHR. Vaillant 7kW ASHP (very pleased with it) open system operating on WC
No-one has suggeted that although I've checked myself that the exhaust air is clearing the ASHP. It's not so much a hollow as a gentle slope of the garden border at that point - looks worse in thge picture than it is. It is on the north side of the outbuilding so rarely gets direct sunlight, except in the summer months when the sun is overhead. Unfortunately it wasn't possible to site it elsewhere..
