Heatpac - where solar is in surplus and fitting an RCAC is problematic

[PaulBana]

I have found the electric-resistive Heat Bank https://heatpac.com.au/ worth considering, where:
- main living area is desperate for heating
- solar export is substantial and FiT is low
- fitting a split RCAC is problematic due to heritage façade, bay windows, etc.

If entered as SLAB HEATER OFF PEAK - the tool will appreciate it over Gas Ducted by 0.2 of a star.
Further modelling maybe necessary for specific situations

Love it, thanks for sharing, Paul.

One step closer to appliances having inbuilt battery storage for peak usage.

What happens if you switch the input from Electric Slab Heater to Electric Heat Bank (Off peak)?

Great suggestion Paul. My brither actually has one of these, he lives at the Aldinga Arts Eco Village - I had never seen one before I visited him. It's a brilliant idea actually....to soak up excess soar generation an then re-release it when needed as heat.
