    >>21464291 Hi!, make a bypass on the principle that if it causes the underfloor to cool down, you will be able to cut it off without problems. And sometimes the recuperator has to be switched off (even in winter) so that it doesn't freeze somehow, but at the outlet from the reek it should already be blowing with plus ones :P .


    If you are stubborn, you can do the same with an air conditioner, i.e. a heat exchanger/heater in a pipe (some kind of container or something) draining condensate and that's it.... can also be used for heating and cooling.


    At the moment, having a photovoltaic installation but under the new rules, I find that in winter there are only a few days when I have full batteries and can heat with it. In the autumn I leave similarly :P Here some kind of windmill would be useful, in the autumn it blows quite well.

    I consider the recuperator a comfort, but whether it saves money is up for debate. These so-called heat losses/gains are incalculable and the cost of installation is rather high.

    But... when it's sunny out, I go up to my hand and turn on the heating.... then the air vents give me 26'C, depending on how I set it. The heating first eats about 3kw and then drops a bit. Again, cooling in winter is only 1kw in my case + increased power of recuperator to take this heat/cool away and as a result eats somewhere around 1400w.... but with panels, as long as there is sunshine it's fine.


    Corab 6.2kw panels, inverter and 12kwh deye batteries. Offgrid inverter. I set it to heat the water when it has excess energy. Cool stuff, would recommend.

    Since March I am so that with hybrid operation (charging/discharging) the next day I have between 30 and 60% of the batteries (mostly about 45% which means I am fully self-sufficient). and when charging 5kwp I have enough for the house, heating water and gadgets like cooling/heating.

    If you are going to cool from the recuperator, you need something to insulate the pipes from the recuperator to the house. Otherwise water will condense on them and it will be a mess. If not on the pipes, then on the wall in which they run.


    Take care, good luck

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the installation of a recuperator with a cooling function in a two-story house of approximately 160 m². The user seeks to manage indoor temperatures during hot days without relying solely on air conditioning. Various opinions are shared regarding the effectiveness of such systems, with some suggesting that a recuperator can lower temperatures by about 5 ºC, while others argue that higher airflow rates are necessary for better performance. Concerns about installation locations, maintenance, and costs are also raised, with estimates for installation ranging from PLN 20,000 to PLN 40,000. Users share personal experiences, noting that while recuperators can provide some cooling, they may not be as effective as traditional air conditioning systems. The importance of proper installation and maintenance, including regular cleaning of filters and ducts, is emphasized to ensure optimal performance.
