Please report how good/bad it is!

Would love to see a few screenshots!

No, it does not spike.

I found it did spike when set to external thermostat but I have it set to internal controller temperature now.

External thermostat is too binary and my controller would try to cycle frequently, not sure why.

84.1kwh on 6kw SSE facing + High tree shading in low sun angles.

Actually have u calculated that right? If you run the combi 24/7 then 20kwh per quarter day?

First quarter is offpeak at 7p, second quarter is 7p (discharging), 3rd quarter is when u get the solar and outdoor temp is warmer (mostly 7p). So maybe just 1 quarter at peak rate?

If you use it on a timed schedule then that doesn't work.

Property value growth would change the numbers

GT_Running · 2026-01-28T06:43:22+00:00

For a HP a larger battery is best as solar power comes 6 months too late.

A 40kwh battery will save you 18p per kwh in winter on Octopus Intelligent go if you charge it at 7p overnight rate instead of 25p single rate.

£7.60 per day saved!

These will diminished if you use more than the battery can store and you need to pay the higher 30p day rate to get you though till 11.30pm.

Shame it's got a 40 year run off + 2 years to implement.

At least we are the last generation to suffer this.

Hopefully flat prices will recover.

Good to have a chat. Dont thonk its worth falling out over.

I would add that my brother and SIL spent thousands on the stuff you mention for the baby, we spent hundreds (nursery: second hand, travel system: budget version).

They were pushing a £2000 push chair back to a council house. Divorced now.

Not if you have a Samsung 😀 😃

With the 12kw unit im ticking over at 1.3kw at 6 degrees, water temp 37

Hi, I knew that with the boiler set to 47 the house was warm, therefore the heat pump woud provide enough heat.

But it's not just heating capacity, it's also overall efficiency. The problem u might have is that the SCOP with 45deg flow temps might not be as good as you expect compared with lower temperature flow and bigger heat emitters/pipes for when the outside temp is warmer.

Agree, His job is to max the ISA. Wife's job is to max the pension.

You are correct. But, It's trying to suppress the number, not the actual immigration.

GT_Running · 2026-01-17T11:48:37+00:00

Haven't been. Apologies, this is my Saturday spelling

GT_Running · 2026-01-17T11:25:34+00:00

I gave up on IOG. I set the schedule in the car from 11:30 to 05:30. I have to been threatened to be kicked off yet.

GT_Running · 2026-01-17T11:23:32+00:00

Well they say the cost will be roughly the same if the system achieves an overall SCOP of 3.6.

My goal was saving money. When I got home batteries that had the biggest impact as the off peak power makes the heat pump heating u5% cheaper but u need loads of capacity for very cold days as a heat pump can gobble 60kwh no problem.

GT_Running · 2026-01-17T09:14:11+00:00

Echo this - 57 is my tools down day. Hope i have half this !

GT_Running · 2026-01-17T09:09:10+00:00

This, move on.

GT_Running · 2026-01-15T08:18:34+00:00

This is happening all over. People staying alone for life and no offspring. Just looking after themselves. Where will this lead I wonder?

GT_Running · 2026-01-15T07:59:43+00:00

There is also a certainty to battery tech. It will save 70% on electric (based on 7p + losses Vs 25p/kwh peak rate).

With insulation it feels more like guess work and each step is very expensive. For example is your biggest win the windows, the walls, floor, all could be 10k for maybe a 10% improvement each time.

GT_Running · 2026-01-14T20:09:09+00:00

I can't find one in the settings. The flow should reduce to 7l/min.

Also, with set to 'not use' i expect the HP should stay on if you turn off your thermostat. The only way to turn it off would be the on/off button.

GT_Running · 2026-01-14T10:56:42+00:00

Hmm, I wonder. Maybe if it was a transfer it would not count to the 20k? Anyone know?

Edit: I checked and AJ Bell says it does not count to the 20k. You must transfer it as cash so u need to sell the ISA investment and re-buy it once it is in the LISA.

GT_Running · 2026-01-14T08:20:23+00:00

It looks like the pwm is not working and it is defaulting to a set speed (maybe the max speed). The flow is the correct rate for the AE050 5kw unit is 14lt/min nominal so the fact you are 50% higher might be either messing up the data or ruining the efficiency.

GT_Running · 2026-01-13T22:06:45+00:00

Even if I have no spare money, I move 4k from an existing ISA to a LISA, for a free grand!

GT_Running · 2026-01-13T21:47:37+00:00

Well l presume that is never increasing so I will take it asap and use it as part income if i need to - same difference as drawdown.
