Saving tips
Your heat pump installation produces heat and hot water. This occurs via
the control settings you made.
Factors that affect the energy consumption are, for example, indoor tem-
perature, hot water consumption, the insulation level of the house and
whether the house has many large window surfaces. The position of the
house, e.g. wind exposure is also an affecting factor.
Even the house ventilation affects the energy consumption. It is therefore
important to perform a ventilation adjustment shortly after installing the
heat pump. At ventilation adjustment, a ventilation technician sets the
house ventilation device and the fan in F370 according to the projected
values of the house.
Also remember:
■
During the adjustment period (winter time) all thermostat valves should
be fully open. The heat pump's heating settings are then adjusted so
that the correct indoor temperature is obtained, in most rooms, regard-
less of the outdoor temperature. In rooms where a lower temperature
is required, the thermostat valves are lowered to the desired level. After
a few months, the remaining thermostats can be lowered slightly to
avoid an increase of the room temperature due to solar radiation, stove
heat etc. Further reductions may be required later on.
■
You can lower the temperature when away from the house by
scheduling "holiday setting" in menu 4.7. See page 59 for instructions.
■
You can reduce the ventilation speed when you are away by entering
a schedule in menu 1.3.3. See page 31 for instructions.
■
If you activate "Hot water Economy", less energy is used.
