...work better than I thought!
I bought a Shelly Thermostat before xmas and put it in the "shed" (garden office). It is positioned on the desk diagonally opposite the SH.
Here is what it has recorded this week:
It is hard to see from the graph above but here is what is happening:
- The SH charges between 2330 and 0530, However there is little-to-no heat leakage, at least nothing that registers on the thermostat.
- At 0630 the SH is programmed to heat the shed. and from 0700 onwards the temperature rises sharply.
- At 1800 the SH is programmed to turn off and the temperature drops slowly.
Last night was -8℃ out so you can see the shed temperature dropped to an overnight low a few degrees lower than previous nights (8℃ vs 10℃).
