Oversizing causes cycling in mild weather. Cannot be fixed cheaply now, but the curve and minimum run time can limit the damage.
valueReaching the fleet’s January median (3.69) would have saved about £4 in this window at 0.25 GBP/kWh. An estimate, not a promise.

Daily COP needs a heat meter; days without one show electricity only.

Each point is one hour of space heating. Lower and flatter is cheaper; well-set radiator systems sit around 35–42 °C at 0 °C outside.
Public system published by its owner on HeatpumpMonitor.org. Cycling (starts per hour) comes from the site’s 365-day statistic. Findings use installer rules of thumb; see methodology.
