The program will calculate one of the pump input parameters acording to the
relationship between power, efficiency, head and flow. Try assigning an almost
0 kW power, and leave another parameter free (for example head) for the
programe to use the formula to calculate this parameter instead of overriding
the almost 0 kW power.<br>

problem is with pumping energy. Equest requires that a pump be attached
to the hot water loop, but the actual installation has gravity return
