Watching the @TechConnectify video about heating sizing. The thing I find hardest to understand tho is the idea of measuring heat pumps in tons.
What's wrong with measuring them in kW?
@quixoticgeek @TechConnectify freedom units baby!
@allpoints @TechConnectify cool. Care to translate for the rest of us ?
@TechConnectify @allpoints brilliant. That makes sense to my brain. I can picture how big that is.
Excellent video btw.
Out of curiosity, are you able to tell us how much a kWh of electricity costs where you are ?
@TechConnectify @allpoints that's not too bad. Here time of use tariffs are not common yet, and the rate is over 50c kWh. :(
@quixoticgeek @allpoints It's hard for me to give a concrete number since I'm on a real-time hourly plan (which, funnily enough, went negative several times today) but for those on fixed-rates with ComEd it's somewhere between $0.10 and $0.12/kWh.
Not sure what the flat rate is at this point, but I come out ahead every month by shifting my car charging to the middle of the night (and air conditioning, too, in the summer).
