What We Do - Vunexio Heat Pump Optimization

What happens during the first visit?

Home Assessment and Initial Configuration

Optimization begins with understanding your home and your heating needs. We spend time evaluating the factors that affect heat pump performance.

Home Evaluation

Every home has unique thermal characteristics. We assess:

Insulation quality in walls, roof, and floors
Window types, sizes, and solar exposure
Thermal mass of building materials
Heat distribution system layout and radiator sizing
Room-by-room heating requirements
Typical occupancy patterns and temperature preferences

This evaluation provides the foundation for all configuration decisions. We configure your system based on your home's actual characteristics, not generic assumptions.

System Configuration Details

Heat pumps have numerous parameters that affect performance. We configure each one appropriately for your situation.

Heating Curves

The heating curve determines water temperature based on outdoor temperature. We calculate the optimal curve for your home's heat loss characteristics and emitter system.

Temperature Differentials

Flow and return temperature differences affect efficiency and comfort. We set differentials that balance heat delivery with system efficiency.

Circulation Pump Settings

Pump speed affects heat distribution and energy consumption. We configure circulation pumps for optimal flow rates throughout your heating system.

Buffer Tank Operation

If your system includes a buffer tank, we configure charge and discharge cycles to maximize efficiency while maintaining consistent heat delivery.

Seasonal Schedules

Heating needs change with seasons. We program schedules that adjust automatically while allowing manual override when needed.

Defrost Cycles

Proper defrost operation maintains efficiency in cold weather. We configure defrost parameters appropriate for your climate zone.

How does the training work?

Practical Thermostat Education

Understanding your thermostat transforms it from a mysterious black box into a useful control tool. We explain everything in clear, practical terms.

What You Learn

Our training session covers all aspects of system operation:

Reading current system status and operating mode
Understanding what each menu option controls
Adjusting temperature setpoints correctly
Using scheduling features effectively
Interpreting error codes and system warnings
Knowing when to adjust settings versus when to leave them alone
Making seasonal adjustments as weather changes
Understanding energy consumption displays

This isn't a lecture. We work through each function together using your actual thermostat. You practice making adjustments under guidance.

What happens after the initial visit?

Real-World Performance Analysis

Initial configuration establishes baseline operation. The follow-up visit refines settings based on actual performance data.

System Operation Period

Your heat pump runs for one month under normal conditions. This generates performance data showing how the system responds to varying weather and usage patterns.

Data Collection

We review energy consumption records, operating hours, temperature logs, and any issues you experienced during the month.

Performance Analysis

Data reveals optimization opportunities. We identify patterns in energy use, temperature consistency, and system cycling behavior.

Parameter Refinement

We adjust settings based on actual performance. These data-driven refinements improve efficiency and comfort beyond initial configuration.

Detailed energy consumption analysis charts and graphs

Understanding Your System's Performance

The follow-up visit includes detailed discussion of your system's performance over the first month of operation.

We review:

Total energy consumption and how it compares to expected values
Temperature consistency in different rooms
System cycling patterns and what they indicate
Any comfort issues you experienced and their causes
Opportunities for further efficiency improvements
Seasonal adjustment recommendations as weather changes

You receive written documentation of all settings, adjustments, and recommendations. This becomes your reference guide for understanding and maintaining your system.

What support continues after optimization?

Ongoing Assistance

Optimization doesn't end with our final visit. We remain available to answer questions and provide guidance as you continue using your system.

Question Response

Questions about system operation receive clear answers. We help you understand what you're observing and whether adjustments are needed.

Seasonal Guidance

As seasons change, you may have questions about adjusting settings. We provide guidance on appropriate seasonal modifications.

Reference Documentation

Your written documentation serves as a permanent reference. It explains your system's configuration and the reasoning behind each setting.
