@Coastalwatch have two Air to AirSHP but the rooms get blasted with sun in the afternoonAshp's on cooling cycle might not go amiss, doh, perhaps too early in the year for that? Have to confess we got by with just opening a window and patio door today while the batts soaked up most of the surplus along with the EV.Another good day for generation, well above March average @ 4.73. Wind speeds down today so just 0.62 O's from Graig Fatha. Still 10.38 kWh's for our share is not to be sniffed at.
