Hello,
I have been searching around and reading the manual for my Elco air-to-water heat pump, but I haven’t fully figured it out yet...
I have a manifold on the ground floor and first floor; the recommendation is to fully open everything, set all thermostats to maximum, and then adjust the heating curve on the heat pump low enough to roughly achieve the desired temperature.
Is that more or less correct?
At the moment, every thermostat (except bathroom/bedroom) is set to 20°C (68°F), and the temperature in each room is about 20.9°C (70°F) (bathroom slightly warmer, bedroom slightly cooler).
However, I’m surprised by the high electricity consumption — it has been 800 kWh in just 2 months.

Elco Split 7 kW
Circulation pump not yet connected
Thanks in advance

I was able to increase the flow from 1200 liters per hour to over 1800 liters per hour by closing the bypass valve on my system...

If you had simply called the local heating technician, they could have fixed the problem in one hour for 44.72 euros. That would have saved you five days of adjusting, readjusting, and testing...Haha, good one, no way.
