I've set up an energy monitor for our house and I'm currently monitoring the following
Whole house
Hot Water Heater North
Hot Water Heater South
Geothermal HVAC North
Geothermal HVAC South
I've found that my usage since install on my monitor has been higher than my usage on my electric bill. After doing some research I'm guessing the reason is that I have the power factor adjustment set to 1. I'm assuming my hot water heaters would be close to 1 but not sure how to figure or get a an idea of the power factor for my geo units? Anyone have any insight on this?
