Do heat pumps work effectively in rooms or areas that are open or suffer from drafts?

0

Your heat pump is sized to heat a certain area and where possible doors should be closed to maintain efficient operation. Installation of a panel heater(s) for hallways is recommended to assist the operation of your heat pump. A draft = extra load and higher running costs. My heat pump unit is leaking water, why is this so? In extreme heat conditions ›28◦c you should have all drapes closed to minimize radiant heat ingress into your home. A realistic temperature set point would be 5◦c lower than the outdoor ambient temperature, no lower. If the set point is too low (22 degrees or lower) the outdoor unit doesn’t get a chance to cycle off and the moisture in the air is frozen onto the indoor heat exchanger. If this is allowed to build up to excessive thickness the drain operation is compromised and water leakage will occur. The remote control is not working. How can I fix this? First replace the batteries in the remote control. With a pen, or other blunt pointed instrument, depress the AC
