Hi Jeff,
So the ambient sensor would go to the water inlet, and the "pipe" sensor would go to the refrigerant out of Hx I'm guessing?

Assuming that the unit only operates in heat mode this would...

Pretty much exactly what I was thinking AC.

At this point it's mostly theoretical. I'm thinking of trying to find a used 18 to 24K single zone unit to chop into. But ultimately if it would work on a single zone, why not a split unit?

What I learned from Acuario's thread is that my assumption about the "s" wire using a variable voltage signal is dead wrong. It is almost certainly a serial data stream. Several guys on that thread...

Perhaps I should read more and post less. It seems Acuario's thread on controlling a dc inverter machine has a great discussion which goes to the heart of my question.

Inverter multi-split with a hydronic zone?

I recently completed my first install of a 2 zone Pioneer multi split in my suite. Painless install. No problems.

I was talking with a close friend this evening about it. He has a little...

Just a few pics for examples of the quality of images you can expect with Flir One. Certainly doesn't have the resolution of a $6000 camera, but the optical overlay makes images readable. I'm...

That's a very good point AC. Perhaps I'll do some more research on my ground before writing off GSHP. I think my city has a Geotechnical Engineer on staff. Test drilling would be the best proof of...

Hi AC,
I've been following the Manifesto for some time and I fear that the Geology at my place is not favourable for GSHP. My area is basically a glacial moraine. Pretty much a shallow sand slope...

I'm guessing that your average season in Toronto is a little different from mine. (I haven't parked my motorcycle yet..:D. Though I see it was a balmy 4 deg C (39 F) in Toronto today).

Gentlemen, I have a question.
