Great Peter your channel is amazing I hope it see the best of you, you have already raised 4Million last year I admit that your the best company I seen so far
Interesting. Heatgeek and Urban Plumbers both say to avoid buffer tanks if at all possible, because they lower system efficiency. But you are recommending them. Have you changed your mind in the last 5 years? If not, can you say why you think they are a good idea by default? There are cases when they make sense (microbore installations with low pipe volume and too-high pumping loses for the pump in the main unit to be sufficient) but my understanding is that they are best designed out.
Morning guys I wondered if anyone can help our heat pump is oversized, what can we do to improve its efficiency?Its my fault really as at the time Daikin only offered a minimum of 9kw with the black grill which we liked the look of compared to Daikin other units. Our heat load is about 5kw at -2, i was thinking maybe a buffer could help but after reading these posts I'm totally confused. We have a 25litre buffer which I believe was installed for hydraulic separation and nothing else 25litre volume. The heat pump will modulate down to 30% according to the manufacturer but won't be enough on the milder days of spring/Auturm when we should be saving. Any help be much appreciated as electric has just doubled for us.

Well Said.. a question that is often asked. The answer is simple, but has to be clear.
