i attach the setup of the buffer, highlighting the return lines and the specs of the water pump that is placed after the buffer. I thought of closing ...
@jamespa the buffer was fitted to increase water in the system due to the existence of zones. @editorI am measuring the temps at the manifold using an...
So i think i have narrowed it down without however knowing the solution. Buffer creates a loop. Hp provides the required water temp to the buffer but ...
@jamespa there is indeed a large noisy water pump placed after the buffer tank that circulates the water through the ufh and the fan coils. However fl...
@jamespa i will try to have a reading as near to the hp as possible. So its possible that hot water enters the tank and is mixed with colder water tha...
Another thing i noticed is the flow temp at the manifolds. While the heatpump shows a reading of lets say 35 out and 32 in, the temp reading at the ma...
@Jamespa There is a "minimum off" and "minimum on" setting. What do you think i should set the values at?
There is a "nightshift" mode with which you can set the hp to operate at reduced fixed capacity (lowest setting is 40%) for a period. If i set it to w...
@jamespa i'm using an app named hi-kumo, which has no monitoring tools, only basic settings. There is an updated controller, released recently by Hita...
@jamespa i was able to watch a 20 minute operation. In a 12c outside temp, the heat pump cycled off 2 times for 3 minutes at a time. When it cycled on...
@jamespa only able to measure delta t on primary circuit. If anyone with knowledge on hitachi heatpumps can suggest a way to see number of cycles, it ...
@judith i can't hear the heatpump but i can hear the external waterpump. Maybe i can try increasing the flow temp, reducing the flow rate manually thr...
