Why can't I find a heat pump with a good SEER rating? The USA has
a
law
stating 13 minimum. Yet here in the UK, I looked at Panasonic and
they're all 7 to 11!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Season...ficiency_ratio

Which suggests that the seasonal weighting parameters used in the US
,
Europe and possibly UK are all different which will give very
different
figures.

Yeah, that's why I included that link. Managed to forget to
point that out and then forgot to do it again when he asked
why I had included that. Worst ****up for quite a while now.

Must be your age.

Nope, time of day. That was the middle of the night for me.

Your sleep patterns are as bad as mine.

Worse actually, much more variable. But in my case its because
I don't even lie in bed trying to sleep, I get up, do what I usually
do and then go back to bed later and go to sleep immediately.

Bit tricky for the people I know tho, very hard to predict
when I will be up.


I'm worse. I can be too sleepy to continue what I'm doing, but when I go
to bed I lie there for up to 2 hours before I can sleep.


I never get that, go to sleep very quickly
indeed, in minute or two, quite literally.


So you can sleep immediately if you're tired, but that time may not be a convenient time of day if you were a 9 to 5 worker? What about having to be at the boot sales at a certain time? Or ending up sleeping during most of the daylight hours?
