RHS electric power/HVAC monitoring

In keeping with the important trend towards more efficient use of our resources, RHS has been enhanced to include more energy monitoring capabilities. It now has:

  • Household power usage monitoring
    • Monitor and record power usage on two independent circuits. These can be whole house or they can be two particular circuits such as HVAC, hot water, pool heater, etc.
    • voltage, current, kWh and kVa are tracked in real time for both circuits
    • real time and historical charts and graphs
    • emailing of each day’s activity is optionally available

The following is a sample of a real time power usage graph

  • Enhanced HVAC monitoring
    Since HVAC stage cycle logging was added, the following enhancements have been made:
    • recording of heat pump loop input and output temperatures
    • real time graphing of loop temperatures, input to output temperature differential and cycle run times
    • historical chart
    • emailing of each day’s activity is optionally available
