How Much Did My Heat Pump Cost to Run Over Winter? A Comprehensive Energy Analysis

Winter is over, the weather is warming up, and I've turned off my heating in preparation for summer. This video will explore the costs and energy usage of my heat pump over the past winter. Prepare for a lot of data and graphs! Installation Recap In December, Octopus Energy replaced my old boiler with a new 6 KW Daikin air source heat pump. Along with this, I upgraded some radiators and installed a new hot water tank. The installation has been impressive—the house remained consistently warm throughout winter, even on the coldest days. Noise levels have been minimal; inside the house, there's almost no noise from the pipes, and outside, the heat pump runs quietly, only occasionally getting louder during startup or hot water cycles. Data Collection Methods For those with a Daikin heat pump like mine, you can track both the electrical energy consumed and heat energy output using the MMI display. By selecting the energy data from the information menu, you can see the da
