I've been looking at the Daikin HT heat pump any one know what SCOP figures. I've been told likely to be around 2, which seems low. Can't get any actual performance details from Daikin, anyone got any experience?

If you e mail technicalhelp@daikin.co.uk with the heading of Daikin Altherma HT information and the nature of the query they will be able to help you.

more likely your not able to supply them with the correct criteria in order to give you an exact SCoP...hence im guessing the figure was quoted by them as worst case scenario.(THEY HAVE SOME VERY GOOD SOFTWARE SO IT IS EASY FOR THEM)

This figure is realistic at worst case up to around 2.5.

And yes you are correct for traditional cycle its not the best, but it does use two compressors utilising R410a & R134a gas as a cascade type system to boost to 80 degrees C.

Although the COP does not on the face of it seem that good, the product is MCS approved unlike alot of those out there that arent, and dont forget the government is now going to PAY people for every kwh they use from an ASHP up to around 7p per KWH up to 23 years of the systems life (dont shoot me if its 6p!)

Hence with the £900 grant plus the above - makes it the most cost effective solution now well above boilers !

hope this helps.

This is mentioned in a consultation document going through Parliament at the moment.....far off being accepted, which is just as well, as the proposal is to slap a levy on all our energy bills to pay for it.
