Energy saving tips
▪ If the DHW consumption differs from day to day, you can program
a weekly schedule with different desired DHW tank temperatures
for each day.
▪ The lower the desired DHW tank temperature, the more cost
effective. By selecting a larger DHW tank, you can lower the
desired DHW tank temperature.
▪ The heatpump itself can produce domestic hot water of maximum
55°C (50°C if outdoor temperature is low). The electrical
resistance integrated in the DHW tank (anti-legionella heater) can
increase this temperature. However, this consumes more energy.
Daikin recommends to set the desired DHW tank temperature
below 55°C to avoid using the electrical resistance.
The anti-legionella heater:
▪ Is used as emergency heater.
▪ Is used when the disinfection function for the DHW tank is
active.
▪ Can assist during defrost operation for the outdoor unit.
▪ The higher the outdoor temperature, the better the performance of
the heatpump.
▪ If energy prices are the same during the day and the night,
Daikin recommends to heat up the DHW tank during the day.
▪ If energy prices are lower during the night, Daikin recommends
to heat up the DHW tank during the night.
▪ When the heatpump produces domestic hot water, it cannot heat
up a space. In case you need domestic hot water and space
heating at the same, Daikin recommends to produce the domestic
hot water during the night when there is lower space heating
demand.
5.4.3 Setup and configuration – DHW tank
▪ For large DHW consumptions, you can heat up the DHW tank
several times during the day.
▪ To heat up the DHW tank to the desired DHW tank temperature,
you can use the following energy sources:
▪ Thermodynamic cycle of the heatpump
▪ Anti-legionella heater
▪ For more information about optimizing the energy consumption for
producing domestic hot water, see "8Configuration"on page48.

▪ By connecting a DHW pump, instant hot water can be available at
the tap.
▪ The DHW pump and the installation are field supply and the
responsibility of the installer.
▪ For more information about connecting the recirculation
connection: see "7Installation"on page29.
Configuration
▪ For more information, see "8Configuration"on page48.
▪ You can program a schedule to control the DHW pump via the
user interface. For more information, see the user reference
guide.

▪ The DHW pump is field-supplied and its installation is the
responsibility of the installer.
▪ The temperature of the DHW tank can be set to maximum 65°C. If
applicable legislation requires higher temperature for disinfection,
you can connect a DHW pump and heater element as shown
above.
▪ If applicable legislation requires disinfection of the water piping
until the tapping point, you can connect a DHW pump and heater
element (if needed) as shown above.
Configuration
The indoor unit can control DHW pump operation. For more
information, see "8Configuration"on page48.
5.5 Setting up the energy metering
▪ Via the user interface, you can read out the following energy data:
▪ Produced heat
▪ Consumed energy
