How to disable radiator heating in LG HM161MR
The title sais it all really. We have a new system and would like to retain domestic hot water heating while avoiding heating the rads. I've been into installer mode but contrary to online instructions, there is no 'function settings' from which I can change 'heating priority' to DHW.
While here, if there is any user manual that is well written and by a native English speaker I would love a pointer. I have the LG produced one but it is pants.
What are you trying to do, is it switch off space heating for the summer or something else?
4kW peak of solar PV since 2011; EV and a 1930s house which has been partially renovated to improve its efficiency. 7kW Vaillant heat pump.
Easy way just set your hopefully single thermostat to min setting. If this built-in in to controller or standalone it's the same process. When you need heat anyone can easily ramp up setting on thermostat and you have heat.
If running Weather compensation there is usually a setting for max outside temperature you want heating active. Just set to a temperature suitable to your home and heating needs between 15 and 20 is normal.
Maxa i32V5 6kW ASHP (heat and cooling)
6.5kW PV
13.5kW GivEnergy AIO Battery.
