We have our first Octopus Saving Sessions coming up tomorrow. I am wondering about the best way to tell a Nibe heatpump (SMO20 controller) not to run for that hour.
There is a “schedule blocking” option which sound like it might be the right thing. “The compressor can be scheduled to be blocked for up to two different time periods here.” Am I understanding right that if I block the compressor for that hour, then the heatpump will avoid running then?
Yes that should work.
This was a good prompt for me to set up the “schedule blocking” just now.
I’ve also set up another “schedule blocking” event for this Thursday 1600-1700hr when the next PowerShaper Flex event is timed to happen.

Your target is based on your consumption at the same time over the last 10 weekdays, so having higher levels of activity recently will help.
