  1. Always bloody wanting! 😂
  2. Good evening. Apparently, once upon a time they didn't, but now they do. I concede, sir. I am now off to do my ritual self disembowelment, followed by a swift beheading.
  3. We often get to loggerheads, so let me add one more to the list lol. WHY? This is such an obvious thing to do, and would be the most sensible 'jump' IMHO. Sell the others on and swap over to a hybrid. The added losses of all of your (then) equipment will be 'undesirable', but the (a) hybrid would work perfectly for you. It even has (could have) an input for the generator directly. Utterly seamless with zero time 'off grid / in blackout'. Please reconsider this, as it has huge benefits for your exact situation!!
  4. Indeed. Do you think I can remember who / when / where....? Not a bloody chance! I know who to ask though, if anyone's looking for info?
  5. What’s your vector, Victor?
  6. The force is strong with you.....
  7. Have you not tried a 1” tap to recut the thread? I can’t remember where we got to with that. If the stopcock works then crack on. They’re good for 10bar and that’ll rarely see north of 2bar. 👍. It’s time to end this madness, so “make it so, number two”. đŸ«Ą
  8. Yup. Chip shops / restaurants use them a lot.
  9. Let it disappear down the pipe! If I can dispose of U571, then a few dog hairs and a bit of mud will disappear to never be seen again, zero problemo.
  10. I’ll see if I have fittings on site tomorrow and mock it up / post pics.
  11. You could even rise into that intersection branch (instead of the second M&F 90 bend) and do both inputs via the single boss, if there's room to sneak a 40mm waste around the back of the soil pipe. Just use a few M&F 45's in the 40mm waste to get you around it maybe?
  12. Apologies for the shite drawing. My desktop just snuffed it. Tidy. So, you chisel out a bit of the floor, if you need to get low as a slugs scrotum, and do as per the above. A 50mm strap on boss with a vertically rising M&F bend into it, with the male 'spigot' of the bend sawn down to get it as close to the boss as possible, then rotate the soil pipe clockwise until the M&F bend is as far around as possible. Then you fit another M&F bend into the first and you’ve got a universal joint which can come off at any angle. 2x M&F bends cut down will only be apart the thickness of the pipe, so you’ll only get 50mm rise from FFL. Should be plenty fall for the dog shower tbh. Use a space saver shower trap to keep the tray as low as possible.
  13. It’s fine as long as it’s cleaned, decontaminated and roughed with some 80grit. You need to use “gap filler” cement instead of solvent weld to bond these together successfully. I always twist the fittings back and forth a good few times to get the plastics to ‘weld’, and you can feel when to stop doing it as the glue starts to bond and cure quite quickly after it displaces what’s not needed in the joint. If poss, it’s nice to use solvent cleaner and a lint-free cloth to remove excess glue from the pipe, internally.
  14. Not just that, but you need 2x connections disappearing at 180° from the soil pipe, so you’d need one above the other. You can go further back (rotate that grey collar more, put a 50mm reducer into and the an M&F (aka street) elbow into it rising vertically, and then fit a 50mm double branch (aka intersection). Then 40mm reducers into each side and pick the pipes up a bit higher up.
  15. Only one of those is open, as supplied, and the other two are “blind” so just saw off the redundant one, drill out the 2 at 90° to each other, and bingo. Rotate so each accept a 45 waste fitting and problem solved?
  16. Ok. Just zoomed in. Not yet made up. OK. You need a boss socket / collar then?
  17. Can you rotate the pipe going into the ground? And I assume that strap on boss is glued and now permanent?
  18. Being told that by "more then one source" in the solar industry, in a nutshell. You say Can you post evidence to the contrary? I am quite happy to stand down if someone says here is written proof that the PT batteries are properly (balanced) charged. The Leoch batteries state that in the first line of their description.
  19. Indeed. I just got word blind after researching / reading regarding mine, so after that info-overload the brain just starts to slip here and there! Agreed, BRegs approval needed over the 30m2, and PD rights remain (subject to T&C's). It's hard enough trying to remember all this and also try and find a guy with a micro that can do muckaway atm, with 2 of my mates having sold up after lockdown to drive HGV.
  20. Nope, and don't call him Shirley
  21. Fleas come with the dog, pal You'll not get me feeling sorry for you You will be enjoying the fruits of your labour soon enough, and will have a very nice home to boot! Chin up, and stop worrying about types of plaster. Let the plasterer do that.
  22. Would you like me to make up some answers? I've a spare 30 mins until tea Go put the telly on ffs.
  23. Still doesn't affect the classification of use though? Just pushes it into needing PP?
  24. Look pal, it's Sunday, stop asking questions that the plasterer can answer when he gets there and says "Thank feck you got MF".
  25. Failing that, you can ring VA directly and their tech support team will talk you through how to change the settings so you don't get unwanted boost
