@newhouse87 I would suggest that you check through all the settings within the controller, to see what, if anything, is being switched on.
If you know who installed the heat pump, then they should be able to provide the heat loss calculations.
Switching on WC may show some improvement in efficiency, but the settings need to be matched to the heat loss of your home. What are the WC settings a...
Looking at the scaling of the graph, it is obvious that the purple line produced from Midea data is using integers. The displayed value goes up and do...
@cathoderay My meaning was to apply the 240v and 10A in the different calculation methods to see if there are any differing results. The problem wit...
@cashback Oh interesting! I'd heard of MVHR with cooling, but not MVHR with heating. At the moment I'm seeing MVHR as an option if a new slab is not...
The problem facing CR and probably other heat pump owners, is how to you know when the heat pump is operating at optimal performance. The problem is...
@cathoderay I suppose one way to check the overall accuracy of the various calculation methods, would be to use specified data over different time p...
@iantelescope Are you operating your heat pump in Weather Compensation (WC) mode, and if so, what are the settings?
To maximise overall efficiency with a heat pump, it is necessary to operate with the lowest possible LWT. To be able to utilise a low LWT, it is nec...
@cashback There doesn't appear to be a great deal of data shown in your example, is your heat pump switched off, or the data collection not working?
@beagles Are you operating your heat pump on a fixed LWT or Weather Compensation (WC)?
