Include heating offset in profit calculation

Adjusted Daily Profit--

Heating offset estimates the value of heat replacing an electric space heater during heating season (~6 months/year in Canada). Actual savings depend on your heating setup and climate.

## Home Mining Assessment

59/100 - Fair

Heat Output: 620W / 2115 BTU

Moderate heat - can supplement room heating.

The Innosilicon A9 ZMaster is a Equihash cryptocurrency miner manufactured by Innosilicon. It delivers a hashrate of 50 Ksol/s with a power consumption of 620W, achieving an efficiency of 12.4 J/TH.

Weighs 5.920 kg, measures 125 x 155 x 360 mm.

With a home mining score of 59/100, this miner is moderately suitable for residential use. It produces 2115 BTU/h of heat output, making it suitable for supplemental space heating.

At 12.4 J/TH, the Innosilicon A9 ZMaster sits in the current-generation efficiency tier, competitive with modern SHA-256 hardware (roughly 13-19 J/TH).

Its waste heat (around 2115 BTU/h) can be ducted into a room, turning money you would otherwise spend on heating into hashrate.

## Frequently Asked Questions
