Great work! Good answers. The parts relating to calorimetry look okay to me, at first glance:
What type of flow measurement sensor was used? Can you list the > manufacturer and model of the flow sensor? > A flow measurement sensor was used, a Rain Gauge supplied Oregon > Scientific - Weather Station WMRS200. It > generates 1 pulse from 10 g of water. > That sounds like good enough resolution. https://www.amazon.com/Oregon-Scientific-WMR200-Professional-Weather/dp/B000VSTALG I cannot find that at the Oregon Scientific website. Here is something similar: http://www.oregonscientificstore.com/p-358-oregon-scientific-wmr300a-ultra-precision-professional-weather-system.aspx > Did the water supply for the calorimeter come directly from the drinking > water faucet? Yes > Was the flow rate manually set? Yes > Both reasonable. Once you set a flow rate with a faucet, it is stable in most cities. > What flow rate was used? (for example in, or L/hour) About 4 ml/s > 240 ml/minute is fine.

That's a big temperature difference. The COP is 1.1 to 1.3, so I guess that up to ~6 deg C of that is anomalous heat.
