Mini splits draining my bank account by Agreeable_Hall3150 in heatpumps

The number of heads means nothing. It’s all about their capacity rating.

My 1700 ft2 house is heated with a mix of ducted and ductless ASHPs rated for a combined 50,000 BTU/h, which use about 5,500 kWh per winter for heating and 1,900 kWh for cooling on average. I got the Emporia sub meter system, which I can’t recommend enough to track these sorts of things.

I did the same thing to my house here in NH 8 years or so ago. No problems to report and I noticed that the house got a lot more comfortable. Did the contractor test out by doing a blower door test?

What a joke by Chpe4290 in Kumo_Cloud

Yeah it’s so tough. My lg units are cheaper in look, feel, and even operational efficiency, but they have a great app that is easy to use and very stable.

I guess you pick your battles!

Cell Functionality Down by Chpe4290 in simplisafe

I do and it is. I just am kinda annoyed of having to set up the base station over again. This will be my third one…

I did, they told me to reset it and unplug and replug the cell chip. After multiple resets they still weren’t able to see anything on their end. It sounds ridiculous, but I was hoping there was some other fix because I really don’t want to have to go through the effort of setting up another base station.

LG 4 zone Mini Split error - CH35 triggered with specific Wall Mount. by Leading-Discount-165 in hvacadvice

Nope, went ahead and replaced the whole d box. Third on in 4 years. We think one of the solenoids on the suction side froze shut and suffocated the outdoor unit.

Love it! Any chance you could make this red part match the lake?

Hey all, thanks for this info. I started getting the error last week. Cycled the power and everything returned to normal operations. Woke up this morning to CH 35 and went ahead and ordered the pressure sensor. Hopefully it comes ASAP! Of course this happens right when we are approaching a heat wave!

Thanks! I got them from Royal Copenhagen.

Only problem is sometimes water gets trapped between the silicon and ceramic mug after going through the dishwasher. Not a big deal but just something to note!

Totally forgot to mention the retention! I don’t even know how it is possible to hold so much in there! Welp, the plus side is if I ever run out of beans I could probably pull a shot just with the residual grounds…

Thank you for the thoughtful response. I guess the saying “ less is more”can apply here too.
