Hi everyone!
So I thought I would post my first week of heat pump analysis to maybe provide some real world info that sometimes seems hard to come by. I will try and be as specific as possible.
Heat Pump: Rheem 5350ti-e 95k BTU
POOL:11800 gal chlorine TFP maintained solar covered(8mil) 20+ hrs/day
Start Date: 11/1/17 @ 11am
End Date: 11/8/17 @ 11am
Start Temp: 67.6*on Rheem, 63*in pool
End Temp: 89.9*on Rheem, 85* in pool
Avg Air Temp: 85* daytime, 70* overnight
Starting Kwh: 47489
End Kwh: 48384
Total 1 wk Kwh used:895, approx 123kwh daily
Kwh Cost: $.053
Total 1wk Cost: $47.44
Total Temp Increase: 22.3*= approx 3.17* daily
Extrapolated Monthly Cost (running 24/7): $189.76 (avg monthly elec was $150 before turning on the heat pump)
Again plz keep in mind this is running the pool pump and heat pump 24/7 for the entire week.
Also, kwh use includes usage for the entire house as I have no way of separating kwh for just the pool equipment.
Hope someone finds this info useful!
Thanks,
JD
