The worlds easiest Octopus heat pump install

My main issue will be I said they could take the gas meter out, so I need to go get a induction hob and of course that means cutting the hole in quartz slightly larger aswell because it’s not standardized :joy:.

New hob will be by far the most expensive thing about the switch!

Rescheduled for next week.

So it turns out the cosy 9 DOES have a removable panel but because it’s wrap around you absolutely need clear ground in front, it has moulded sliders.

I’ve also found out that in no way shape or form can the cosy 9 condensation drain go into soil stack or grey water waste - I have not had a solid confirmation on this but apparently the volume of R290 means there is a auditable risk of that leaking into drainage system… So soakaway only! Daikins apparently have a no return valve to prevent this.

I have the system here so I will take some internals soon. Box states 4.65 COP @ 8kW. 0.88 KG of R290.20A max current. UPML 25-105 130 grundfos.

Ikea induction hob FTW

I have an R290 Vaillant, but regulations in Germany around that are the same. A Vaillant service engineer confirmed to me that the (minimal) risk of R290 leakage into the drainage system is the reason why the condensation needs to soak into the ground.

Reading various labels…

USB C diag port.

Internal modbus.

CAN bus.

Lots of 10k NTC. Some clipped, some in solder pockets.

Inverter VFD seems to be a ED3 from emerson so I would guess that means it’s an Emerson Copeland scroll compressor. :+1:

SIKA flow sensor.

Some lovely lovely Easter eggs.

Yeah this info has not reached the octopus surveyor, it could cause some issues but I’m sure it will work out.

@Ringi I am fairly sure it has a new 120hz copeland HG YHV compressor inside (probably the 8.4 m3/h size), so it should run down to 700W.
