Report it and give the reason why, someone will be along to sort it out for you.

Mega watt hour. They claim that they don't need any rare earth metals. Indium is a by product of copper mining, so maybe they can use some of the excess energy to process the spoil. Rare earth metals are not scarce, they just tend to be in places then Western world wish they were not.

Basically yes. Really comes down to what happens when something fails. Foam sheets shrink over time, that stresses anything covering the joints. Polyethylene sheet has a plasticiser incorporated into it, so it can move due to thermal and mechanical expansion.

If it is over 9m2 then you need planning permission. The modules and inverter are rated as kW, battery as kWh. But it really depends as some some inverters have minimum lower power setting i.e. 200W, so they often will not run lights off the battery. There are 2 main types of systems that incorporate batteries. One that puts the batterers on the DC side and the other on the AC side. I think most people go for hybrid inverters that that allow batteries to be charged from the AC side. There is a lot more to an MCS installation than just final signoff. Generally why MCS companies will not sign off systems they have not installed.

About what I used to heat my house yesterday. Are they still allowed to be sold? With electrical equipment there is an upper power rating for standby.

I think once pumping costs and cycling is taken into account, 55 60 60%. Simply way to find out, turn a room radiator off and put a fan heater in the same room, measure the differences.

Good luck getting that from an oil burner attached to a domestic central heating system. You only need to stand by the flu and feel what is coming out.

That is about 100 litres of gas. Seems a lot to me.

Has the inefficiency of the oil burner been taken into account. Could be closer to 50 to 55 kWhth delivered. So down to 20 or less needed from PV.

It is worth remembering why a VCL is fitted. It is to stop humidity condensing on hidden cold surfaces.

What make and is it saffron cake.

Is it take water from the base of the cylinder and returning it to the top? You have a greater temperature drop, over time, at the cylinder base. Can you check the flow direction?

I get upset if I use over 20 kWh/day.

Nails, screws and bolts all work differently. Hand nailing can be a bit of a pain if access is limited.

Drill clearance holes and countersink the heads, it will pull down better onto the adhesive.

Which is based on Physics.

Complain that we only get 5p/kWh for exporting it, instead of 50p/kWh.

Climate zone is more to do with the land/ocean ratio and altitude.

Welcome And Longitude

It will be raining again soon.

Welcome It is about time we had a useful chemist on here again. My knowledge is very limited in the black art and usually involves a bucket and stick.

You may still need a battery, all be a smallish one, to get the heat pump started. Then you need some way to stop overvoltage if the PV array is too large. So quite a bit of electronics involved. It is not like wiring up a torch.

Condolences on your Brother. Not sure what else to say.

May be getting another soon.
