Size your heat pump.

See the EvoHeat and Madimack models that fit, and what it costs to run. The numbers update as you go. It's an estimate from our own formula; the final size is confirmed with you after we've seen photos.

Method

How the numbers
are worked out.

A simplified formula giving an indicative heating need and running cost, then matched to real EvoHeat and Madimack models using their published heating output and C.O.P. at 15°C and 27°C air.

Volumelength × width × depth × 1,000 L
Heating needarea × 0.34 × season × temperature × cover × exposure
SeasonOct–Apr 1.00 · Sep–May 1.15 · All year 1.40
Temperature±8% per °C from 28
Cover · Exposure0.83 · 1.20
Air temperatureBrisbane monthly mean, BoM station 040913 (mean max + mean min) ÷ 2
Model outputPublished full-output kW at 15°C and 27°C air, interpolated to the coldest month of your season
ModelsIn each range, the smallest single-phase model whose output in that month meets the need. Ranges whose smallest fit is over 1.5 × the need + 3 kW are left out as oversized
Running costEach month's heat ÷ that model's published full-output C.O.P. at that month's air temperature × c/kWh. Range spans the fitting models, ±10%
Warm-upvolume × +6°C ÷ the smallest fitting model's output, losses ignored
