What is weather compensation?

Most modern heat pumps have a featured called weather compensation. Graham Hendra explains how this feature works and how it can make your heat pump more efficient.

We would like to say a huge thank you to Auream Energy for sponsoring this video. To find out more about their solar installation services please visit their website.

Weather compensation is a feature that allows a heat pump to adjust its output based on the outside temperature. This can help the heat pump operate more efficiently and reduce energy consumption.

If you’re a heat pump owner and you’re interested in using weather compensation, there are a few things you can do to make the most of this feature.

First, make sure that your heat pump is properly sized for your home. A heat pump that is too small will struggle to heat your home efficiently, even with weather compensation.

Second, make sure that your heat pump is properly installed and maintained. This will help ensure that it is operating at peak efficiency and will be able to take advantage of weather compensation.

Third, consider using a programmable thermostat to control your heat pump. This will allow you to set the temperature in your home based on the time of day and the outside temperature, which can help you save energy and improve the performance of your heat pump.

Fourth, consider using a weather-based controller for your heat pump. These controllers use real-time weather data to adjust the output of your heat pump based on the outside temperature, which can help you save energy and improve the performance of your heat pump.

Finally, be sure to regularly check and maintain your heat pump to ensure that it is operating at peak efficiency. This will help you get the most out of weather compensation and other energy-saving features.

It’s sad to see an industry expert trivialise what is technology that minimises energy consumption.. does Graham not know it is mandatory in Germany and many countries because it saves energy
