I'm not sure I follow. I have a 12kW Samsung ASHP, and starting from cold, which we do most mornings as we often switch off overnight, the system norm...
I generated 6.4kWh on Saturday 2.8kWh on Sunday and 7.4kWh yesterday from my south facing 3.65kWp array - Saturday and yesterday were very good days w...
I'm running a 'flat' WL curve of 32C (32C @ 15C OAT; 32C @ -2C OAT), and I then manually adjust LWT up and down on the controller heating screen. At t...
I don't know how having two zones may complicate/affect things, especially as presumably the two zones may require different flow temps? With #2091-...
@cloudclear sounds like a good plan. I do not have any monitoring, so am simply collecting data and recording through studious observations. FSV #20...
I believe the guys above have nailed it. I have a similar 12kW Gen6 Samsung and observe exactly the same. The heat that the ASHP is producing has to...
That would be the more logical place to fit them, but ours is installed on the main return pipe back to the heat pump, so affects both DHW and heating...
@rhh2348 My system has a 50L volumiser fitted in the main 28mm return pipework, which at the end of the DWH cycle will also contain 50L of hot (55C) w...
This is exactly what I observe with my oversized Samsung when I run it in always on mode via the room stat calling for heat. If I set the WC curve t...
Optimising flow rate for DHW heating is something I'd been thinking about over the summer, as we are only heating DHW at that time. My simplistic th...
I don't I'm afraid - you could try looking up the specs of the Grundfos pumps online. My own system uses fixed flow rate Wilo pumps, with 3 differen...
Have a look at John Cantor's excellent online calculators here (specifically the flow rate calculator): Heat (kW) = Flowrate (Litres/sec.) x 4.2 ...
