A GREATER DEGREE OF CONTROL State-of-the-art energy monitoring and management of the Ecodan Heat Pump System means the family now has the visibility and freedom to efficiently manage their overall household power consumption for heating and hot water. As the cylinder is located underneath the house, the owners decided to wire the controller upstairs in the hallway to allow easy access and control. The ability to program the system means they can set and forget. Having configured the system to make the most of solar electricity generation during the daytime and top up overnight when energy prices are low, the household is able to save even more on their power bill. Furthermore, the intelligent Flow Temperature Controller actively manages the heat required via the combined user interface and thermostat. At the same time as managing the heat load with minimal energy use, this system will automatically manage the hot water by checking the tank for a 15°C drop in the temperature. IMPRESSIVE PERFORMANCE THAT REDUCES COSTS AND FAMILY CARBON FOOTPRINT The Ecodan Hot Water Heat Pump has provided this home with an impressive COP of 3.1.*1 In comparison, typical gas and direct electric heating systems can have higher running costs with COPs as low as 0.82.*2 By converting from gas to the Ecodan Hot Water Heat Pump system, this Northland family has reduced their carbon footprint by approximately 3.85 tonnes per year,*3 while also reducing the running cost compared to instant gas systems by approximately 25%!*4 30
