How do people find switching from DHW to space heating in respect of the flow and return temps? For example, going from a 52C flow (for 47C DHW temp)...
I asked the question to gain more understanding in the context of the flow/return temps rather than that being what I wanted to/was planning to achiev...
I lowered my flow rate to c. 11L/m for the Ecodan and the heat/power output went down to c. 3.8kW :-/ The deltaT remained around 5 so I assume Ecodan...
This may seem like a daft question but can I please check - one should always aim for their systems to have a return temp of <target temp> + dT ...
so conversly, flowrate = heat / 4.18 / deltaT Using 6kW as power ('heat'), 6 / 4.18 / 8 * 60 (to get lpm) = 10.77lpm, or the 10.8 I quoted - nice. ...

As mentioned above, the one I have 1) has the MITSUBISHI suffix after the VVX20, and 2) states 5..80 lpm on the front - I can't find much info or suff...
