the full energy requirements of the system (alternative operation). 
Alternative Operation can be achieved by setting P14=P15. This means that either the heat pump or the boiler operate 
but not the two together (exception is during DHW demand).

provide 100% of the heating requirements on the coldest day of the year. It is recommended for low-energy houses and 
for moderate climates without severe winters. Used in new builds or in boiler-replacement applications.
