    Time for Cornish National Dress then, shorts, T-Shirt and Flip Flops.

    What temperature is the house at? I am at 25.3°C and 57% RH
  3. SteamyTea
    21.4°C and 74% RH Which is pretty nice for here, little breeze compared to normal. I hope tomorrow is the same. It can go cold on Tuesday as back to work then.

    Just taken my supper to the beach, was nice.

    Just resurrecting this thread. I have just heard about Brave as a browser. It has TOR built in, and I have logged into a site I know my provider has blocked, so seems to work. Couple of screenshots, one of the screen to activate TOR, and one of the memory usage. Bit slow to upload stuff, but that is not unusual when using TOR.

    You know those postcards of Cornwall, they were taken on one day in 1976. Fake News was invented here by Newlyn School of Artists. They don't really show rosy cheeked children because they are healthy, scarlet fever more like. The wives looking out to sea on a stormy day is not because it is exciting, it is anguish over lost loved ones. But the sun is out now, and I have some new cycling longes, so going to try them out. That should scare the children.

    A few misreadings, but pretty low RH here. Shall see what today's is, tomorrow.

    "Cornwall. It is wetter than you think"

    It is my day off, and it is raining But I was out on the coldest evening week before last. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyqG46kY-c8

    I shall sneak some in. The Queensway Club was an interesting one, As was Rio.

    Saunas are hotter, had to change benches over at Colchester once, they would not let me turn them off. That was a hard day.

    The poor and needy, or it could be the fat and greedy, still need feeding. It was an improvement on the day before, then it was 43°C

    Worked in this for 5 hours yesterday
  14. SteamyTea
    Nor me, not had a TV since 1994. I do watch the Construction Channel sometimes.

    Would the summer bypass just either push air into the house, or suck it out. If so, then maybe the exhaust has no airflow, but the intake from outside does, or visa versa. I assumes the loft was properly boarded to get to the unit. All PV stuff that was fitted in lofts had to have a pathway and a standing area. I don't understand why newbuilds don't have the loft boarded by default, that way the insulation can be covered over and no one will know it is missing.

    Why do you want to get to it. Apart from initial setup and changing any filters fitted, they don't need to be looked at.
  17. SteamyTea
    Yes, it is quite hard to do in the lab and other carefully set up experiments. There are a few statistical techniques one can employ to tease out the differences, but if the initial premise, or the initial starting conditions are not correct, then the data produces rubbish results.

    The technology has not changed any. Some are better than others that is all. Basically warm, moist air is drawn out of the house, the thermal energy is extracted by the heat exchanger to warm up cooler external air that has a lower humidity. Sometimes the outside air is warmer than the internal air, and sometimes the external RH is higher too. That is when the control system earns it keep. So the important part is the control system really. The heat exchanger is in a box with a couple of fans connected to it (usually).

    They grow oranges in Spain, that is on a similar latitude as Nebraska.
  20. SteamyTea
    I wish.

    And also in a very small fraction of people tested/surveyed. This weeks comic had an article about this very point (not bacon, sampling methods).

    Yes and your suggested solution was the creation of a definitive single source of truth for global warming Yes, it is called data, and we have a lot of it. I suggest that education is the way forward, not myths, prejudice and denial of the truth. This is starting to sound like the Woman's Hour joke I heard a couple of years back. Question: "What do 9 out of ten people enjoy?" Answer: "Gang Rape".

    As NiFe are large and heavy, could they be redesigned and incorporated into the foundations of a house. Might sound a bit 'whacky', but be already use timber, steel and concrete beams to do that.
  24. SteamyTea
    Which goes back to my original point.
  25. SteamyTea
    These are a couple of 200W ones, on a fairly windy day.
