I have shifted my heating times.

As we enter, what is traditionally the coldest month down here, and because I like trying out simple changes to see what happens.  I have shifted my E7 heating window from 3 AM to 7 AM (GMT) to 4 AM to  7 AM (GMT).

This is party because I noticed that all the heating had happened before I was out of bed, and party to try and use low CO2 generation, which is what the ultimate goal of us all should be..

 

So as usual, a couple of charts to show the difference.  Early days yet,

And CO2 charts.

Interesting info and alot of data.

 

Im considering doing something similar as my next project. We are about to have a Solar Edge Batt fitted, our main heat source is an Oil Boiler , but looking into making this hybrid with a ASHP to run through the night on the cheap rate during the winter while also charging the battery in winter days that aren’t sunny.

Still sketching the idea on the fag packet but hoping I can progress it.

All my ideas are at least '2 packet problems'.

 

I should have a better resolution in a week or two as I fiddled a bit with the storage heater input. I had turned it down a bit too low.

Outside air temperature has been a bit up and down as well. Ideally need at least 25 samples in each temperature bin to get reasonable accuracy.
