4.3.1 Comfort levels
If you feel that the desired room air
temperature in your home is not being reached,
it is possible to increase the comfort level
settings on your UI, which changes the water
input temperature for your heating system.
Glen Dimplex heat pumps allow for weather
compensation, and operate on a heating curve,
which will set the flow (water input)
temperature automatically depending on
outside conditions. The heating curves for each
zone in your home would have been set up by
the installer during the heat pump installation.
Changing the water input temperature will
change the response time for your heating
system.
In the comfort level submenu, as shown in
figure 8, it is possible to alter the water input
temperature for your system within a range of
6°C (-3°C to +3°C).
A warmer water input temperature will
increase
energy consumption and
therefore running costs - every 1°C
reduction in the system’s water input
tem perat ure will reduc e energy
consumption by 2.5%.
You can set your comfort level to automatically
remain set for anything from 1 hour to 14 days
(for short term changes or seasonal
adjustments), or if you wish to keep your
settings permanently, there is a permanent
setting option which will stay as set until you
change it again manually. The default comfort
level setting is 0.
