This is a A+++ ccu unit I call it . Climate control unit. Because In a few minutes you can easily go from heating to air conditioning back to heating in moments again .
Isn’t new technology as a kid I lived with a heat pump but that was thousands included in house payments .
So this absolutely makes a home of recommendation 350 sq feet totally comfortable in moments.
I’ve been looking for anything but propane to heat and going back to the grid isn’t in my plans ever so this fit the situation. Only using 1280 watts of continuous usage is outstanding! Not running heat side from Solar today and don’t foresee it but works fantastically with my 1600 watt generator. Saved propane most likely will cover extra fuel used for generation but no electric bills is my main goal . Not going un noticed btw
Last visit from them three days ago rechecked the line
They don’t understand the outstanding efficiency of this new found treasure , I dreamed about turning this sorta air conditioner around as a kid so seeing it happen I had to save the under 500$ and buy it and so glad I did wow .
I have a situation going on here whereas my neighbors have been really polluting my air so with propane had to have ventilation and loss efficiency and never was a fan of the gas fumes .
Again with this new ccu I don’t have to do it’s recycling air saved us from the ongoing air assault's.
So win win win
Another good discovery this air conditioning side uses 575 watts same as the unit I replaced but this is 50% higher cooling capacity yet uses same wattage so was delighted it runs off my Solar in perfect conditions while suns out between 11/4 most of the year in Florida off the grid btw!
Why they are not happy lol
But nothing but good things so far
One noteworthy issue I learned with using a parallel system with Solar was that the wires must be a sizable distance between power sources because just the magnetic sine waves can Interrupt the generator and cause a glitch which a kilowatt meter picked up with flashing screen indicating a issue with power source so keep in mind to use conduit and properly space opposing power supplies .
So to review ac side uses 575 watts
Easy to run off the sun in perfect conditions
1280 heat pump side that I don’t see Solar powering overnight unless you’ve built a massive battery bank see a electrician or get a backup generator as I wrote about in my book Solar Independent Utility Systems Manual
So conclusion far better than burning anything for heat only thing that would beat this is a properly sized radiant heating system that uses the suns heat alongside its photovoltaic advantages. My next goal with geothermal alongside to replace this but until that dream happens
This is my answer for the foreseeable future
Can’t say enough about this outstanding ccu
No more propane tanks running out
No more feeding wood fires
Now just time the generator usually five to eight hours depending on your temp setting. Set it to max 86
Max cool 61 makes working much harder far safer
Thank you LG
You hit this one out of the park
Pure awesomeness
Quietness a BONUS !!!!
