I installed a Pandora heatbank from DPC about 2 years ago. It's always worked well but I've always been concerned that it seems to leak a lot of heat, but I've never got round to actually measuring it until now (had 2 kids in the meantime that took all my time!)
The design code is CPC-150-ABBDA-AAJA-H (150 litre Pandora) At 10.30pm the temp was 78 deg.C. At 8.00 am the temp was 64 deg.C.
It was completely powered down overnight, so the loss can not be due to a dripping tap etc.
I work that out as 8.8KJ over 9.5 hours, so an average heat loss of about 250W, which seems very high!
I'm wondering if such a high loss could be due to the fittings etc. or if it's likely that the insulation is compromised.
I emailed DPC a week ago but haven't received a reply as yet.
Any advice gratefully received!
Thanks, Dave.
