Ecodan Melcloud Temperature Change
Long time lurker, first time poster
5kW Ecodan, FT6 controller
Yesterday, Octopus energy had a 3 hr free electricity session. Thought a cunning way to take advantage of this was to heat the house up significantly so we wouldn't need to have heating on in the evening. (Normally the system looks after itself very nicely, weather comp set etc)
I used the app to increase temp, up from 18C to 22C; forgot to boost flow temp so plan was never really going to work in3 hr window.
My issue, the ASHP stopped heating when 19C was reached and not the new target temp. I’ve not been able to find any info online as to how the app controls the temp, whether there are timing limits etc etc or was there a ghost in the machine
I would be grateful if someone could point me in the direction of some useful literature or perhaps explain how the app works (or doesn’t)
