Re: 24/7 versus limited on and off time for water heating



Chaps,

Where does this magic "two hours" heating time come from?
I'd set it to an hour and see if you run out of hot water, then
increase/decrease as necessary.

I had mine set in steps for monthly periods, starting at 15 mins, going up
to an hour during January, never as high as two hours!

The solar h/w panel install over summer has spannered that s/w, so need to
write some more code to read the tank top temperature and apply so logic to
generate a minimum heating time (subject to SWMBO not being aware heating
times are being adjusted).
