It is the amount of energy in the water that needs replacing, not time playing in it. You can get an electrical diverter that pushed the current to the immersion heater. Probably the most effective thing you can do to save money (apart from buying a washing line an dumping the tumble dryer). A SunAmp is always a possibility, but not sure how well the integrate with a ASHP these days). If it is easier, can't you use the utility/bike rooms. I used to live in Hertfordshire, mate sent me a video of snow falling this afternoon.

If it can be made to work, why not. Will there be room for a buffet tank and expansion vessel? Regarding your hit water, how often do you think you will need all of it in a short space of time? And would boosting with s 3 or 6 kW immersion get you out of a hole if you have guests. Are you having PV diverted to the DHW?

Some sort of platform maybe.

You need enough room to fit reasonably long flexible pipes to minimise sound transmission. Can you raise the cylinder up and have enough room under it for manifolds and maintenance?

Why would you do, or want, that to happen. CoP of 1, compared to over 1.

Worth remembering that the RHI payment id based on estimated usage. So if your house is thermally efficient, then you will not get much in the way of payments.

Which is, assuming a minimum tank temperature of 10°C which is ~4 kWh. If the max temp is set to 45°C then the volume needs to go up to ~100 litres, to store the same amount of energy.

Welcome So not finished after 40 years. That should cheer up others.

1 But one of those Portuguese Thermodynamic solar panels that work in the dark may get very high CoP. The Solar Constant is 1340 W/m².

Nothing wrong with that, you still need 200mm plus on insulation. I think that is what @joe90 has. One advantage of a decent slab is that you can reduce the cold bridge at the sole plate.

Where else would it go?

Fit mirrors, that will work a treat. Intact you could easily cast tinfoil into clear resin. That would make it waterproof as well. No reason you cannot fit PV to s flat roof. Do it yourself.

I have a theory that people that click on fake news links are easier to sell tat to. Magnetic resonance water purification that utilises quantum vibrations is my starting point. Or this. A house on the moon would apparently cost £44,525,536.42 Feedback is our weekly column of bizarre stories, implausible advertising claims, confusing instructions and more HUMANS 31 March 2021 New Scientist Default Image Josie Ford Lunar living “Fancy buying a house on the Moon?”, an email that plops into Feedback’s inbox asks, continuing, before we have a chance to say, “Not particularly”, “It would cost you £234k a MONTH!” “With Earth becoming increasingly populated and space technology advancing, it won’t be long before lunar living becomes the new normal,” this email, which appears to have come from a price comparison website, asserts. Yes, they were saying that back in ’69, too. Mind you, recent revelations about lunar infrastructure developments such as kilometres-high concrete towers and fully operational sperm banks (20 March) might be enough to convince us this is an idea whose time has come. Advertisement Alas, “Living on the moon is not as simple as life on Earth” – a statement Feedback would definitely describe as the under-variety. Building and transport costs, land licences and a property markup of 27.61 per cent, plus such boondoggles as solar panels, industrial-strength heaters and meteor-proof windows, mean we are looking at a surprisingly precise £44,525,536.42 for a first-time buy. Plus £1 billion for the nuclear-powered option. What planet are they on, we can only ask. Although, considering the pre-pandemic prices of some of the real estate we see from our London penthouse stationery cupboard, the answer might well be Earth.

Fit PV, that will take out 20% of the energy. If you have a decent amount of room, active ventilation between tiles and room may help, pipe the warmed air to a heat pump to warm your DHW. You could make up a small roof section and do some tests in your garden. I did this over at the other place. http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=5643&page=1 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=7304&page=1 10 years ago.

@AliGStart with this. http://appft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsearch-bool.html&r=3&f=G&l=50&co1=AND&d=PG01&s1="Vaccine+tracking"&OS="Vaccine+tracking"&RS="Vaccine+tracking" It has vaccine, temperature and resonance in it.

There is a small town near me where someone set up a Facebook page claiming they were opening up a burger and kebab House. The town is very snobby and up itself. Was just a windup. Worked well. So do it, I am sure we can all contribute and document on a thread on here, to crush those doubters.

True, plenty of aresholes for rent.

And even easier for many to be sucked into conspiracy theories, that are not theories at all. Archilogy is one of the humanities, not a science (under Popper's definition).

Don't pick this toilet

Yes, but only in the same way that Boris said we could spend £350m a week on the NHS. It was just to get them built. The hundreds of reports about the downsides are now long forgotten. Remember that there was only 3 reports that said, in an extreme case, we were highly unlikely to go into an ice age, we never quote all the 1970s research that said the planet was warming. And that was 50 years ago almost. One thing I really hope that comes out if the COVID crisis is that science research is more reliable than politian's opinions. And arts graduates should never be allowed to comment on anything technical. Our media really is appalling. It is so had that even the scientific truth is now lumped in with fictional narrative.

Welcome. If you like the hard work side of the build, then you can easily get the fabric to passivhous standard. It is really only smaller windows, thicker insulation and better airtightness. Then save the money on the heating system (if you have a decent insulated ground floor you need a smaller, and simpler, heating system). A bath us a bath really, close your eyes and the water feels the same, a marble kitchen counter makes a pizza taste the same as a Formica counter (I hate kitchen poncery). Have a hunt around on here for heating and ventilation, then get on eBay. You don't need an Architect for planning.

@SimonD We have known what to do for 150 years, and known the costs of not doing it. Technically we have been able to do it for the last 60 years. But like anything in economics, and gardening, we leave it untill the costs are greater than the benefits. So we end up not doing it.

Does need to be very pure water for electrolysis or the platinum catalysts get corrupted. Still, water is not the problem. Nor is platinum, we can sweep that up from the roadside or collect it from storm drains. The problem is the 55 kWh needed to make a kilo of it, then dry it, store but, transport it, store again, then local metering it for sale. All while minimising the leakage. Better off making ammonia, 1 nitrogen and 3 hydrogens, and a boiling point of -33⁰C, about where a HP cools to.

Small g, for gravity. Is that why you get sucked into the black hole. Get a reply in quick before jack comes.
