Regular cleaning of your heat pump can maintain optimal performance by lowering unnecessary power usage, boosting energy efficiency, and minimising condensation exposure.
Cleaning the filters on your heat pump is something we advise doing every season. Using a little brush attachment on a household vacuum cleaner, you can accomplish this task on your own. If you’d like, we can book you in with us to do a heat pump service.
Every six months, we advise cleaning your outdoor unit. You can accomplish this on your own by cleaning the area surrounding the unit of any trash, garbage, or plant material. Use only dishwashing liquid or car wash solutions for best results when cleaning the outdoor unit and coil. Then, rinse everything off with a hose.
It’s also crucial that you keep any outdoor décor, plants, or furniture off the outdoor unit. Any obstruction to the airflow surrounding the outside unit will negatively impact its performance.
It is never appropriate to utilise a heating appliance on a 24-hour basis. Using an appliance continuously throughout the day will likely result in an increase in your electricity costs, as common sense dictates. A heat pump should be used wisely by only using it when necessary. You don’t need to use your heat pump during the day if you are not at home. It should be sufficient to use a few hours in the morning and evening in this case, provided that the insulation is sufficient.
Never use a heat pump in the same way that you would a radiant heater. It won’t warm up the room any faster to turn your heat pump up to 28°C. The heat pump will actually consume more energy as it tries to absorb energy in order to reach this unrealistic temperature.
If you set the heat pump to the genuine required temperature, say 18–22°C in heating mode (a comfortable temperature during winter), the heat pump will respond as efficiently as possible, immediately reach this temperature, and maintain it without the need for additional adjustments. You’ll return to comfortable, warm comfort if you set a timer to turn on this temperature 30 minutes before you leave for home.
Every heat pump that is used in the chilly winter months eventually goes through a defrost cycle. Ice accumulation on the exterior unit is eliminated using the defrost mode. The heat pump briefly turns off the heating when in defrost mode. Certain brands of heat pumps require more time for defrosting than others.
More heating and less defrost cycles are two of the features that contribute to the efficiency of Mitsubishi Electric Heat Pumps with HyperCore®. A Mitsubishi Electric heat pump produces more heat and requires less defrost cycles, which reduces overall power consumption and increases actual energy efficiency.
The exterior unit is simply dehumidifying the air in preparation for heating your home, which is the reason behind this condensation. But, if you’re seeing more condensation leaking from an outdoor unit than usual, there may be a problem with too much ice on the coils or a clogged drainage system. The cause of the obstruction in the water’s flow could be debris, dust, or fungus. The AC will leak as a result of the water trying to find an alternate route out. Breathing issues could arise if you ignore this issue for an extended period of time. You must call us so we can check you and stop the leak.More heating and less defrost cycles are two of the features that contribute to the efficiency of Mitsubishi Electric Heat Pumps with HyperCore®.
