3.4 Tips for making savings
The heat pump is intended to generate the desired heat and domestic water. The system attempts to meet these desires by all available means within the limits of the setpoints.
Important factors affecting energy consumption are the indoor temperature, the domestic hot water consumption, the temperature of the domestic hot water, the quality of the house’s insulation, and the desired level of comfort.
Keep the aforementioned factors in mind when changing the device’s settings.
Underfloor heating and radiator thermostats can have a negative impact on energy consumption. They reduce the flow rate in the heating system, and the heat pump compensates for this by raising the temperature of the network. This affects the device’s operation and consumes more electrical energy.
Thermostats are only intended for adjustments due to “free heat” (the sun, people, fireplaces).
