Energy meter
Check the accommodation's energy meter regularly, preferably
once a month. This will indicate any changes in power
consumption.
Maintenance of RC-HY20/40-W
Regular checks
Your heat pump requires minimal maintenance after
commissioning. On the other hand, it is recommended that you
check your installation regularly. For more information
regarding the maintenance of heat pumps and/or accumulator
tanks/water heaters, refer to the relevant manual.
If something unusual occurs, messages about the malfunction
appear in the display in the form of dierent alarm texts. See
alarm management on page 37.
Saving tips
Your heat pump installation produces heat and hot water. This
occurs via the control settings you made.
Factors that affect the energy consumption are, for example,
indoor temperature, hot water consumption, the insulation level
of the house and whether the house has many large window
surfaces. The position of the house, e.g. wind exposure is also
an aecting factor.
If you activate "Hot water Economy", less energy is used.
Power consumption
If you increase one degree of the desired indoor temperature,
increases power consumption by approx. 5%.
Domestic electricity
In the past it has been calculated that an average Swedish
household has an approximate annual consumption of 5000
kWh domestic electricity/year. In today's society it is usually
between 6000-12000 kWh/year.
