With professional workers on site and engineers assisting, the six geothermal heat pumps provided by Chen Xin to the special police unit were quickly installed.
Even though they needed to wait for the cent to dry completely, it didn’t waste too much ti, and three days later, the entire set of equipnt could run smoothly.
However, the equipnt was only in trial operation, as the special police unit had not yet connected it to the heating system of the area where the special police unit was located, so Chen Xin just started the equipnt to test its operational condition.
"The equipnt is running fine, but whether it can operate for long periods is still unknown. My suggestion is to connect the pipelines with the hot water pipes in the bathroom, so we can test if the heating and operation are stable," Chen Xin suggested to the engineer next to him.
Since the geothermal heat pump equipnt hasn’t been connected to the heating pipelines, the heat obtained by the geothermal heat pumps is all stored as hot water in the energy storage tank.
But the energy storage tank’s capacity is limited, and with the continuous operation of the six geothermal heat pumps, this energy storage tank is already half full.
The engineer looked at the water level displayed on the energy storage tank, calculated the heat supply efficiency of the six geothermal heat pumps, and nodded with satisfaction: "Based on the current operating data, the six geothermal heat pumps can provide 2 tons of hot water in an hour, which is already quite efficient!"
Talking about this data, the engineer was visibly excited.
Although he knew the heat efficiency of geothermal heat pumps was high, seeing firsthand that the storage tank capable of holding 5 tons of water had already been filled by one-fifth in half an hour was still exciting, especially since he had participated in installing this equipnt.
So watching the equipnt’s operation was so outstanding, the engineer felt a great sense of achievent.
Sharing in the engineer’s excitent, Chen Xin smiled too, but he continued, "Since we’re only testing right now, I haven’t set the equipnt’s operational power to the maximum. You should connect the energy storage tank to the hot water pipes in the bathroom. This way, while providing hot water for the bathroom, we can also test the equipnt’s stability during prolonged operation at maximum power.
After all, this equipnt was handmade by , and I can’t guarantee its operational stability. Testing it would be best."
"Indeed, stable long-term operation of the equipnt is key, and we will modify the pipeline for testing," the engineer agreed with Chen Xin’s words, nodded, and after making a note, he asked Chen Xin with concern, "Are you leaving now, Chen Engineer?"
Chen Xin didn’t deny it and just nodded: "The equipnt is installed, and it’s running smoothly now, so tomorrow I’m leaving. My greenhouse at ho has vegetables growing, and I’m a bit worried about not tending to them for a few days."
"Oh, better go back and take a look then," the engineer felt Chen Xin had no reason to stay.
Even though he thought Chen Xin should indeed return, the engineer still asked with concern, "If the equipnt encounters issues in the future, will you co around again, Chen Engineer?"
"Rest assured, if any faults occur in the equipnt operation, the special police unit knows where I live, and I can co by anyti." Chen Xin readily guaranteed on matters concerning after-sales issues.
After chatting with the engineer about equipnt operations and maintenance, Chen Xin finally turned and left, while Qin Lan was already waiting for him.
"Are you leaving now, Ah Xin?" Qin Lan looked at Chen Xin beside her, unable to help but feel a bit reluctant.
Staying together again with Chen Xin over the past few days, Qin Lan felt as if she had fallen in love with him all over again through their close contact, making Chen Xin’s departure sowhat painful.
Chen Xin noticed Qin Lan’s emotions, but having no intention to reconcile with Qin Lan, it was inappropriate for him to express too much intimacy.
Although over these days, his relationship with Qin Lan had returned to the sa level of closeness as before, Chen Xin knew even Qin Lan didn’t have the intention to reconcile; otherwise, she would’ve already spoken up.
So, although he noticed Qin Lan’s mood wasn’t quite right, he could only nod and say to her, "Hmm, it’s ti to go back. No one’s tended to the greenhouse at ho these past few days, and who knows what kind of ss it’s turned into. I need to go back and tidy things up."
Though he was not too worried about whether the greenhouse would face issues due to being away for so many days.
Before he left, he had already turned on both the geothermal heat pump and the generator, so there was no danger of a power outage.
As long as there’s no power outage, the water and heating won’t stop in the greenhouse, and a few days unsupervised shouldn’t cause any problems.
But growing vegetables still requires regular tending, especially since the first batch of upland rice he planted is due for harvest this month, and he needed to go back to harvest it.
Qin Lan knew all this too, though she felt a bit reluctant to see Chen Xin go, she nodded and said, "Then be careful, Ah Xin. I have duty today, so let Ah Ning take you back."
"Xiao Ding? Haven’t seen her these days. Has she returned then?" Chen Xin, although a bit surprised that Qin Lan wasn’t the one to take him back, understood her aning and didn’t comnt further, just curious about why he hadn’t seen Ding Ning these past few days.
"Ah Ning has been on duty at another shelter these past few days, she just ca back on rotation today," Qin Lan explained why Chen Xin hadn’t seen Ding Ning, leading him back to the room to pack his luggage, but did not escort him out.
Watching Chen Xin’s departing back, Qin Lan felt a pang of discomfort in her heart, the kind of feeling she hadn’t had since her breakup with Chen Xin.
Chen Xin knew Qin Lan was watching him from behind, but he didn’t turn back, just sighed and left the shelter by the elevator.
Under the escort of Ding Ning and another mber of the special police team, Chen Xin returned to his ho after several days away.
The doorway was still covered with snow, and with Ding Ning and the other mber’s help, he was able to shovel away the snow and finally entered the house.
Ding Ning and the other special police team mber didn’t stay long, just escorted Chen Xin ho before leaving, while Chen Xin began tidying up his shelter.
After being away for a few days, though everything was clean, and the floor needed little cleaning, there was still a bit of dust.
As for the water circulation system, it didn’t need cleaning since it wasn’t used while Chen Xin was away from ho.
The situation in the planting greenhouse was also good, not only were the crops growing normally, but they thrived because Chen Xin hadn’t turned off the supplentary lighting these days, making the growth even better than before.
The only trouble for Chen Xin was the small bunker where he installed the antenna, as it was covered in thick ice, with the gap connecting to the outside world completely blocked, and breaking through this ice was an arduous job.
