We normally only have the lounge around 18 degrees maybe 19 if we are under the weather and in deep winter on the odd occasion we will get it up to 20 degrees maybe. Right now we are passing 23 degrees and I suspect the wife will go ballistic on me when she gets home later, interestingly it’s warmed upstairs as well as downstairs so so a double headed unit should easily manage winter but I really need to get the costs sorted before I get distracted by how well it gone.

The weather here has definitely changed towards the cooler side of the scale today and my wife has a cold at the minute and was feeling that she wanted to be warmer.

We are cooking a turkey roast dinner at the minute but I felt that this was an opportunity to flex the heat pump technology further so I popped on the air conditioner and cranked up the temperature.

She’s very pleased with the speed of heating as am I, I am equally pleased that when the oven is on we are still putting 800 watts in the stack and when it’s off we are putting over 2 kW in the stack and heating the whole cottage on an otherwise blustery cold afternoon.

I might be winning the most important heart and mind in the cottage over towards a split air on system :xx:

Sounds great Moxi, the tech has spliced in nicely by the sound of it. :xl: We are now down to 1 A2A heating over 100 sqmtr across two floors. It is the lower floor unit and it is getting it done very well indeed. As at home with the ashp it is mounted high on a wall so unlikely to see any cold air recirc what with it being balcony mounted.

Good luck with the convincing, sounds like it's a self selling idea.
