TL;DRAbstract

This report presents the field data and related analysis for seven residential heat pump installations. These results cover both heating and cooling operation for a period of one to two years, depending upon the installation date at each site. This program is a follow-on project from RP789-1, which monitored four residential heat pump installations and one commercial heat pump installation. This report describes the building structures, the associated heat pump systems, and the instrumentation system used to record the performance data. Data summaries are then presented which quantify the actual operating characteristics and performance of these heat pumps in both heating and cooling modes of operation. Analyses of these data are also included to interpret the results, including discussions of electrical demand profiles and utility impacts.
