Aren't land/property prices more affected by employment opportunity/wages than available land. There are exceptions, I live in one of them. But as a general rule.

Have to be careful when calculating efficiency of combustion. There are two measures. Higher and Lower Heating Values of Natural Gas Natural gas has two key measurements for its energy content: the Higher Heating Value (HHV) and the Lower Heating Value (LHV). These values indicate the amount of energy released during combustion. Higher Heating Value (HHV) Typical Range: 42 to 55 MJ/kg Definition: HHV measures the total energy released when natural gas is burned, including the latent heat of vaporization of water produced during combustion. This value assumes that all combustion products are cooled back to the original temperature, allowing for the recovery of this latent heat. Lower Heating Value (LHV) Typical Range: Approximately 38 to 50 MJ/kg Definition: LHV accounts for the energy lost due to the vaporization of water. It is calculated by not recovering the latent heat of the water vapor produced during combustion, making it a more practical measure for many applications, especially in engines and heating systems. Comparison of HHV and LHV Measurement Value (MJ/kg) Description Higher Heating Value (HHV) 42 to 55 Total energy including latent heat of vaporization Lower Heating Value (LHV) 38 to 50 Energy excluding latent heat of vaporization Understanding these values is crucial for applications involving natural gas, as they influence efficiency calculations and energy output estimations.

That is the kind of thing I want to know.

That's better.

It suggests a CoP of 1. Cost me about half that on E7, storage heaters and an immersion heater.

703[£] / 2650 [kWh] = 26.5p/kWh Something does not seem right there.

Why I hate the saying 'you can speed, quality or price'. Thinking about where to spend time and cash makes the quality easier.

They could just pull the main fuse out. My anti theft devise is to be poor and have nothing worth taking. I live in a place where cars get dumped, not stolen.

Can't you use a hygrometer (pyrex jug and digital scales)? Find out the density at the correct ratio and then compare your mix.

They won't be engineers, just technicians with BTEC or C&G qualification. Look up the qualification and then ask around for people with the right certificate.

The question needs to be how long it takes until smoke becomes a problem and how long until structural integrity fails. I suspect that most consumer products would fail a similar test. The Grenville Tower Enquiry Report has just been sent to the Crown Prosecution Service, with both company and individuals named. Be interesting to see how fast the CPS act. Took the 18 months to prosecute me over some so minor that I was not even fined.

The investors will loose.

That should be a warning about Axle. It won't, and some people are going to loose their cash.

Are talking cash or capacity?

Have you got a name for her then? I went sailing recently and hit a local reef, No Sense Atoll.

Sounds a familiar story. Must the the microclimate that is unique https://forum.buildhub.org.uk/search/?q=zoothorn&quick=1

We get quite a few abandoned boats down here. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cornwall-57232394

Is it a boat you want to build, or a pond to float it in? One thing that has always crossed my mind is what costs are involved in owning a small bit of land i.e. land taxes, insurances, access permissions.

In the oil industry, there is a distinction between Produce and Refine. I lived on a West Indian island that produced no petroleum products at all, but refined 335,000 barrel/day. In the past the USA used a lot of heating oil for domestic heating. This is not the case so much these days. https://www.costinspector.com/research/home-heating-fuel

If I remember correctly, XPS retains less water and is used for areas that may get damp, so are used for foundations. The Building Regs has a bit about it.

Getting some data from here: https://data.nordpoolgroup.com/auction/gb-half-hour/prices?deliveryDate=2026-09-19&currency=GBP&aggregation=DeliveryPeriod&deliveryAreas=UK Plotting Price and Volume, you get this. Not sure that increasing price has much to do with volume. (a lot more data point would be needed, but had a busy day and I am tired. The peak price was between 18:00 and 20:00, but the biggest draw was 07:00 to 08:00 and the price was negative) Delivery Period MWH £ 23:00 - 00:00 198.5 46.21 00:00 - 01:00 166.3 34.42 01:00 - 02:00 112.6 15.88 02:00 - 03:00 123.9 4 03:00 - 04:00 229.9 -1 04:00 - 05:00 323.1 -1.64 05:00 - 06:00 397.9 -1.64 06:00 - 07:00 377 -1.63 07:00 - 08:00 464.6 -1.66 08:00 - 09:00 274.5 3.3 09:00 - 10:00 112.3 4.43 10:00 - 11:00 154.6 3.1 11:00 - 12:00 210 -1.46 12:00 - 13:00 188.2 -1.24 13:00 - 14:00 173.7 -1.6 14:00 - 15:00 177.6 -0.09 15:00 - 16:00 86.6 4.32 16:00 - 17:00 124.1 9.35 17:00 - 18:00 349.7 65.1 18:00 - 19:00 152 106.32 19:00 - 20:00 156.4 106.8 20:00 - 21:00 191.2 96.82 21:00 - 22:00 151.9 86.04 22:00 - 23:00 109.2 62.56

I can tell you what happens when abseiling goes wrong. I was abseiling, for the first time ever, near St. Just. The idea was to save a few minutes scrabbling down the 'long way around'. I had a new back pack on with the climbing gear inside. A few metres down, I heard a snap, and I was then hanging upside down. The buckle of my new back pack had come undone, the pack swivelled downwards, changing my centre of balance, leaving me head first about 50 metres above a granite slab. So what then happens. Vomit.

Just coat the roof with this stuff. https://gbr.sika.com/en/distribution/roofing/roof-repair/everbuild-liquidroof.html

How will the grid react if individual homes are responding to frequency/voltage variation. A million homes can increase, or decrease, consumption in a few minutes, even a small generator takes several minutes to react, a large one a few hours. Can you model a central control, using historical data, against a million independent agents 'doing their own thing'? Will there to too many limits on independent systems to make it worth while?

Reducing the size of the window would lower the energy input into the room.
