Posted by: @jancold@jamespa OK I have found that setting and reduced by 1C and see how that goes.
Great. Be prepared to take several days reducing it a degree a day. If you overshoot and the house gets too cold just step it up one.
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.

Daikin 6Kw ASHP.
MG4 EV, Solis 8KW inverter, 32KWh battery
