how goes the 50mm pipe problem dave

the design of your soakway field will determine which you need or if you need both

I think the main difference is that an inspection chamber is basically a hole to look at the pipe going in and out of the chamber a distribution chamber will have one inlet AND an umber of outlet connections --usually 4 for the soakaway perforated hoses so its fitted where the main grey water pipe meets the soakway field this is my understanding of it

so to clarify for me --NON pv man -- if you have panels with dif outputs it will level them out at average of all or drop output to what lowest one is out putting

ring the agents? econekt --in glasgow

hers another system for you econekt.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/ECONEKT.-ICF-Elements-Brochure2.pdf see page 20 construction video of flooring www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdb5MqjSr9Q&index=16&list=PLIwx_CpmS37PPaGLSVS4fa6rEH1gcf5B1

don,t see any rocket scientists in the videos LOL downside is you need alot of acrow props --or small trees ,as it shows in a russian video

you cut velox or isotex with a saw

both the velox or Isotex floor system is hollow so you get some insulation and service voids see here forum.buildhub.org.uk/topic/7398-anybody-using-velox/?page=3

If you want a solid upper floor ,and i,m not saying that is right or wrong --look at Isotex or Velox floor systems

hi, ok after talking to border hydro ,who also are supplier of kingspan wind turbines its a non starter if you have grid electric --only really worth considering if off grid 35k ballpark ,for 6kw turbine fitted 20years to payback --then it will be about worn out .LOL

this they could have addressed 20 years ago by making all buses and taxi,s etc go to lpg been running lpg cat D9 dozers +other earth moving equip in gold and diamond mines is SA for 30years +-- and now ecu tech has advanced its even easier then when we were fitting lpg to volvos 25 years ago not as clean as electric --but major improvement on diesel I remember when cats were going to become mandatory 1991,but some car makers wanted go clean burn instead saab +ford did a test put filter on both induction and exhaust of a car fitted with lean burn guess which was blackest after a day in london traffic yep it was the intake filter --not the exhaust --they were cleaning up the air by burning it well now you have vehicles needing ADD BLUE -and cats that catch particles ,but have to do a regeneration now and then --which turns particles into CO2+water so you still get the pollution only later so the solution has been there for 20years+ I know you don,t get round the NOX problem totally with lpg or CNG --but its very good stop gap till electric REALLY becomes vaiable for all its all about vested interests ,as always

I could manage that distance --Iwill check any good small turbines out there - seems to be a lot round here that have stopped working --supplier gone bump or just too unreliable mechanically

has anybody gone for pure electric for heating house at passiv level and any info on result of that If its a viable choice then solar thermal for DHW would be my choice as well

one from china maybe http://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/85mm-3-346-Cutting-Diameter-Hinge-Boring-Drill-Bit-Woodworking-Hole-Saw-Wood-Cutter-Silver-Tone/1266465_32354432335.html#!

linking this with the "no new gas connections"--it is crazy not to think the electric versions will be small sellers in future

who would --you could probably buy a small wind turbine for that now there's a thought !! half way up a hill facing prevailing winds OHH I can see the protests already

well maybe SGN quote for my new gas connection will not be such a blow after all# was wanting gas if possible --but the £46,572.52p was an Eastenders "you having a laugh"

I think if you look at power requirement for any planer --then corded is still the best option

what people have and have batteries for is what they going to keep using --only sensible. my experience of makita has not been as good as JS -- maybe rough arse mehcanics etc not saying they are not good ,but certainly newer ones are not as robust as they were and a lot more plastic in them ,than older models. which is why now my makita tools are getting old and batteries seen better days .I decided to change to different make personal choice and experience

take a look at milwakee as well I have some of them now and certainly the 1/2 impact gun is very good ,far better than the ingersol rand it replaced _will be buying more to keep using same battery system

heres a thought for you a layer of blocks all round --be particular on them being level to the level you want the FFL then fill it in with the concrete --don,t forget your dpc--you could fit it below the blocks you should be able to use a tamping bar /length of wood ,what ever ,across complete width and 2 people can do it no problem

you could veneer the MDF. www.amazon.co.uk/Iron-Pre-Glued-Veneer-2500mm-300mm/dp/B00BRVQRB2/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1550661986&sr=8-4&keywords=oak+veneer+sheets

hobbit home comes to mind built into ground if money allowed LOl just a glass wall peeking out of the banking

I used festo tools when i had body shop +yes expensive but quality second to none and they out lasted all other types i had given the men to use before that sanders with extraction ,grinders drills etc etc for car body repair
