Heat pump optimisation for house in The Netherlands
Hello,
My name is Miro and I live in Maastricht, Netherlands. I joined today this forum, because I've read very interesting info about Heat pump optimisation and I hope I can find somebody who would share their settings and observations.
We bought 3 terrace home (ruin) build in 1892 and converted it into "A or B rating" efficient house. We bought the house 2017 and finished 3 years later. I took a lot of inspiration from England as the terrace homes are similarly build and have similar layouts.
We installed -Solar panels, rain water tank, heat pump, 7 zones floor heating, Natural wood fiber isolation pavatex, wood burning stove Dovre, Domotica Qbus, and many more gadgets we could think of.

Thank you for the forum.
