Introducing Agile Octopus: Revolutionising Heat Pump Efficiency and Cost Savings

Gone are the days of blindly consuming electricity at a fixed rate! With the advent of Agile Octopus, a groundbreaking variable tariff offered by Octopus Energy, homeowners can now tap into the dynamic pricing of electricity to maximise savings like never before.

But what exactly is Agile Octopus?

It's a game-changing tariff that unveils the fluctuating cost of electricity, driven by factors like wind and solar power generation. By leveraging this tariff, savvy consumers can slash their energy bills by strategically adjusting their electricity usage to capitalise on lower rates during off-peak hours.

Enter MasterTherm Heat Pumps, seamlessly integrating with Agile Octopus to deliver unparalleled efficiency and cost-effectiveness. With MasterTherm's advanced control system, homeowners can effortlessly harness the power of Agile Octopus to optimise their heating and hot water consumption.

How does it work?

The MasterTherm controller syncs with Agile Octopus, retrieving real-time electricity prices daily at 4:00 pm.  Based on the user's comfort preferences and preset temperature thresholds, the controller intelligently schedules heat pump operations across four SMART Grid categories over a 24-hour period.

In SMART Grid 1, the heat pump remains dormant until the indoor temperature dips below the user-defined comfort level, ensuring optimal comfort without compromising on energy efficiency.

SMART Grids 2 and 3 enable the heat pump to operate within predetermined comfort parameters, with the added flexibility to capitalise on cheaper electricity rates during off-peak periods for temperature boosts.

However, the real magic happens in SMART Grid 4 – the super boost mode. Here, homeowners can take full advantage of rock-bottom electricity prices, potentially even earning credits, by allowing the heat pump to supercharge the property with additional energy beyond standard comfort levels.

By strategically loading the property with energy during low-cost or free electricity periods, MasterTherm Heat Pumps effectively mitigate the need for expensive energy consumption during peak hours, translating into substantial cost savings of up to 70%.

The benefits are clear: Agile Octopus empowers homeowners to take control of their energy usage, while MasterTherm Heat Pumps seamlessly integrate with this innovative tariff to deliver unparalleled efficiency and cost savings. It's a win-win for both your wallet and the environment. So why wait?

Join the Agile Octopus revolution today and start reaping the rewards of intelligent heat pump controls!
