Stuart, thanks for this video. How often are you finding you need to top up the pressure? I'm about to do it for the first time, but the system has only been in for a few weeks. My understanding was that it would be needed a couple of times a year.
How do you know which side to adjust first? I mean, which side is which? Yours seem to be the opposite way round to mine as shown to me by Octopus when they installed it.
Good to hear the pressure stabilised because I wasn’t too hopeful when it dropped off so quickly. Would be interested in the monitoring data you mentioned. Did octopus fit the additional equipment for this or did you get it done afterwards?
I installed a esp32 board loaded with espaltherma which I connected to home assistant. I also got an electrician to fit a Shelley pro 50 in the heat pump consumer unit with ct clamps around the power cables to monitor the electricity used.
@@HarjDoolno the Daikin app is very basic and gives hardly any info. You can get more from the mmi but still much more using the esp32 and Shelley. Have a look at people’s graphs on heatpumpmonitor.org and you will see the kind of info you can get.
Thanks for the video, l just needed that reminded what I had to do…

Very useful video, thank you!

I’d be interested in a video on how you setup the monitoring solution, and a real world look at what stats it’s giving you

@@kindns Does the Daikin app not give these details? So is the esp 32 and Shelley essential?

@@kindnshello Stuart, do you have an email address for your RUclips channel ?
What I’d be very interested in is the cost of running this as opposed to your previous heating and hot water system.?
