Early afternoon is more convienient - I have solar and kids when with me tend to shower in the evenings. I’ll fiddle with settings a bit more, but yes looks like I will have to run at a different time.
Good info. I didn’t know that. Will file that nugget away until we are out of warranty.
In the meantime, the heat-reflective coating on our south-facing windows is really proving its worth in the current sunny weather. The house feels quite cool.
I notice from the Installer manual that the operating Temp is given as -25 to 25 degrees for Heating, but -25 to 35 degrees for DHW. But it seems to cut out at 25 degrees anyway (as per the solution to this thread)? 35 degrees would be fine, rare for UK, but 25 degrees seems too low.
There is another setting - Pump outside range (breadcrumb [4.9], code [F-00], page 175 on the installer manual). What I found is that this was stopping DWH at the temp set, when I switched it to enabled, I got DWH.
The other setting may be the Overshoot? [9-04]. That sets how much LWT can overshoot the target LWT before the compressor shuts off. It is applicable for heating on milder days when the unit can’t modulate down to the required LWT so the LWT starts to rise.
