Re: Wind proof bin store

Well I think thats pretty good as a result, 16:09 and the coldest part of the lounge is 20 degrees, the play room and kitchen are 23 degree which is where the unit is situated for the test, based on that information a 3kW A2A with 2 internal heat exchangers would do down stairs and upstairs comforta...

Re: Wind proof bin store

what stunning weather we are having, 5 days off the grid including around 35kWh into the car via the type 1 charger and the house batteries not dropping below 75% in the same period.
