220l vented tank has a heat loss of 78W (delta T not specified). and
as you say that goes towards heating the house anyway.
Yes, I suppose as long as you have space in your house for a really big
cylinder then you can heat the water overnight, keep it hot with
relatively little loss which the heatpump can replenish, and hope that
you never use all that water before the next time it can be heated
(cheaply).
The house that I was mentioning earlier with the heatpump and whining
air duct in each room had the largest cylinder I've ever seen: about 6
feet tall and 2'6" diameter. Hell of a volume of water there!
That is about standard for a family house.
I think I have a 220L as well.
