Hi Looking for a spigot to connect waste pipe to standard garden host. I saw the attached photo and not sure if this is a special T and a certain spigot used or just washing machine fitting

Hi I asked K-Rend and sent them pictures and they said it will be fine

My house is due to get rendered in the summer and the wall have been up for a few years. I have noticed in some places that the motar has started to fret. If you run a trowel along it it will dig in about 20mm Is it OK to render over it or will it need repointing first as it will be a big job and do not want to delay getting it rendered. We will be using K Rend

Hi I have one south facing roof and 1 west facing roof and i am looking to have 10 soler panels on each in total 8.3 KW I have an EV charger at home for my car and a ASHP. I currently have a smart meter but it does not work due to it not able to conect to the DCC. I am thinking about putting in about 20 KW oif battery storage but not sure what size invertor. One quot states 3.6KW invertor and no need to fill in the G99 but I am not at risk of to much clipping and only being able to get generated electirc in the house 3.6KWh thus the car charging would take half the power from the grid not the battery. or have i got it wrong in some way? Live in Scotland also KA18 Thanks

to the tip

Hi A company is loking to put windturbines about 2KM away from my property and has started to draw up a contract with me. One of the statments they are asking for me to agree to is the following Non-interference -The Householders will acknowledge and agree that they are financially involved in the Energy Project for the purposes of the ETSU Noise Guidance. Not sure what it means can anyone help? thanks

Good point, will have a look at the post

It will not let me turn it off unless I go in to factory settings and then can disable it. If I disable it what about legionnaires.

I am putting my hearth in and to is 1800mm x 600mm x 20mm it is raise of the ground by 45mm so there is a space below it. The company that supplied it have stated that I need to bed it on cement but I thought it would be strong enough with out doing this and just setting it in. There is a support underneath where the pink line is in pic

so should I switch it off then?

Hi I notice that my heat pump has Electric (Fast) Heating turned on. The instruction manually is not clear it just stats turn on if needed. Should it be off or on? Thanks

Hi I never got this resolved and have had no insurance for nearly a year now
