I would like to start a new comparison thread and learn about your energy consumption. I am not completely satisfied with mine.

KFW55
Heated area 200 m2 (2,150 sq ft), underfloor heating
Standard rooms 19°C (66°F), living areas 22°C (72°F), bathroom 23°C (73°F)
Air-to-water heat pump with centralized controlled ventilation system
Domestic hot water temperature 50°C (122°F)


Data collection unfortunately only since April 2019:

I will update the table monthly. November will be included soon, with an estimated 650 kWh.

Addendum:
Of this, 457 kWh in January were caused by the rapidly activated heating element, as I only began optimizing at that time. Annual coefficient of performance (COP): 3.15

The values set by the builder were predictably not very good. It seemed he had not installed a NIBE system before either. However, we had no influence on that.

Lowest temperatures were approximately as follows:

Those are quite good values!

Good value, but with a payback period of about 30 years compared to an air-to-water heat pump, it is still not financially viable despite subsidies. Therefore, ground-source heat pumps remain something for enthusiasts; we would have liked to install one as well because it is great technology.
