Fan Coil Units for use with a (cooling) ASHP

Had my cooling on this year already, one fan coil and UFH, flow rate 14.5 to 15 degs, zero condensation from fan coil

To be fair, last week with the easterly flow DPs were very low across the board despite the solar warmth.

 

I have just bought a bunch of computer case fans and and going to see how they work with our double rads and flow temp controlled to be above dew point; we will probably run the dehumidifiers in the summer when we have excess PV so minimal cost which should also help with this issue - at the expense of some additonal heat input from the dehumidifiers.

Just for completeness, I email Megawave about their FCUs and got the following data sheets if anyone is still considering them:

 

I haven’t gone as far as an order.

@Wil did you order these in the end?

@Dave Jones have you ran condensation drains to your FCUs if you’re running above dew point? If you have, do you think you needed to? I ran flow/return to upstairs bedrooms in case we needed heating upstairs. turns out it’s more of a case of needing cooling up there but I didn’t run drains to them. What do you think? 

 

no, i dont want the loop to be less than 15c to avoid dewpoint on the slab.
