Time for a party then, not trashed a newbuild yet, done loads of student HMO in the past though. No one knew I had been there.

There may be a different methodology used. So treat the numbers with caution. Having said that, because of the losses from my cylinder being higher than my usage some days, I added extra insulation. Not a hard job to do, if you make sure the box for the cylinder is in a sensible size i.e. not small.

It is really a by-product of changing to CO2. From what I have read, the CO2 is kept in a super critical state, so basically relies on the energy levels of phase change. This allows more energy transfer by volume. CO2 does not like being a liquid. The move to CO2 is to reduce the global warming potential of gas leaks, not improving the efficiency of the unit per se.

I think we should start up a TF house factory. There is enough community knowledge and way too much free time. There is a company called Frame down here, not sure if they do one offs now though. www.framehomes.co.uk/

Just noticed this on the BBC website. Not sure it is a true reflection of life down here. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cornwall-49837050

You could make your own dasey cutter. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/BLU-82

There was a push over a decade ago to give out free energy monitors. Trouble is, most people that got them had no idea what it was showing them.

So if a house was 80m2, that is £150000. Probably pretty cheap for Norwich.

What I have been doing for years.

Anyone know what sizes these places are. They look similar in size to my place, which is tiny.

Came from some insignificant Scottish Island. Orkney. SunAmp had a mention. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0009372

https://www.edp24.co.uk/news/politics/norwich-goldsmith-street-scheme-favourite-to-win-riba-stirling-prize-1-6311239 Looks like where a school mate of mine lived in Basildon. I think the term is fugly.

If you put isolators in a cupboard, how will anyone find them when they are needed? Will be like plumbers putting in NRV and the likes, then boxing the lot in.

Are, the 'other place'. Probably more tolerant as the member on here stopped using it.

Most if it. I did have an eye waterer that sounded heavy, but we about a yard long. That is my back yard, not the distance from my nose to fingertip.

Not sure if that kills the seeds. Still think salt is cheap way. I got some roundup from Tesco, was pretty cheap I seem to remember. Kills all the weeds in the carpark.

Salt maybe.

Call it half a second per metre of pipe run. Then you have a few seconds for the not so instantaneous water heater to stabilize the flow and temperature. Not sure about the ill effects, but they don't wash for decades. The plumbing in our house in France was dreadful. When we lived there in the mid 60's, they did not like being referred to as Dutch, was to close to Deutsch, but they have got over themselves with special smugness. I disagree. The only drawback is if you can't fit the F&E tank high enough. Apart from that, it is probably the easiest to install, apart from a SunAmp. Still the cheapest by quite a way.

Plus 7/24th of the meter rental and 5% VAT. I think electric showers give a saving as they beat less water. Why they are horrible. I probably have the lowest capital cost system there is, just a vented 200lt E7 cylinder, F&E tank, pump and a combined mixer tap. Probably less than £500. Yes you do.

You can have either depending on the type of 'cylinder' There is a fair amount about thermal stores, ASHPs and showers on here. Try the search function. It really comes down to the terminology used, it can be a bit confusing.

And Nessie is an eel that appears after drinking.

That may well be a bad thing.

I have some ESP8266s kicking about, they should do it too, and can have other sensors on them. May have to get my box of winter projects out. Thinking about the ceramic element, the SHC is not too great. Polyurethane is a lot higher, and easy to mould into interesting shapes. The I value is about half of ceramic, but that just means it takes twice as long to warm up and cool down, but at such a small scale, it is pretty irrelevant.

Yes, but not in a 4 inch, or 6 inch, pipe though the wall. I prefer Ed's comment These days it can be done pretty reliably wirelessly I think. Make them as matched pairs.

Let's put a stop to that then, say what you really think.
