Sunamp-Thermino-Brochure-JUNE-2022-v2.2 (1).pdfIs the PCM in your "original" unit perhaps different to what's in their current Thermino range? PDF attached. Be interesting on how many similar failures they've had and whether the containment is fit for purpose. Imaging it splitting over a kid's room / cot.

MVHR into a cold roof ?
Onoff replied to Post and beam's topic in Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR)
Is there a standard lagging / thickness for MVHR duct in a cold roof? -
Seriously, I'd be happy to pop down and help lift it out etc.

Would an extra pair(s) of hands help with the heavy lifting?

& it still leaks!

Poor bloke, of all the people who could have welcomed him back... 😂 Can't help thinking a 6 year life for a product, that then fails like that, isn't a great advert.

Welcome back! I still haven't finished the bathroom btw..

Overusing expanding foam - an issue?

Illbrück FM330. The end. -
Seal up that hole around the pipe for a start where it goes through the wall. Then insulate:

Poor sods, they'll have heat pumps foisted upon them next before they get windows and doors!

I was more thinking IBC tanks... I know, 100% that bio gas is* a huge thing in Nepal. Both the Gurkhas engineers (late 50s, early 60s) I work with say about their mum's feeding a few shovels of buffalo dung into an underground, domed tank each day. They would cook with the resultant, piped gas and do their homework by gaslight. https://www.build-a-biogas-plant.com/PDF/NepalBiogasPlant.pdf I say is, as more recently there has been a state sponsored move to run electrical supplies to properties. Apparently you get a connection box on your property whether you like it or not and are charged. It's all about control I guess, taking the power away from the people 😉

Say you had unlimited access to the waste steam of 60 cattle. I know someone who has who otherwise struggles with fuel poverty. Can't help thinking that's an untapped resource. Just don't how you'd go about tapping it.

Alibaba do them but only if you buy like 500 at a time. This place in Oz do them. Don't what import charges you'd be stung for though: https://dzelectrical.com.au/collections/delong-electrical

DeLong is one I know of if you can get them, what else?

Beechwood fires are bright and clear If the logs are kept a year, Chestnut's only good they say, If for logs 'tis laid away. Make a fire of Elder tree, Death within your house will be; But ash new or ash old, Is fit for a queen with crown of gold Birch and fir logs burn too fast Blaze up bright and do not last, it is by the Irish said Hawthorn bakes the sweetest bread. Elm wood burns like churchyard mould, E'en the very flames are cold But ash green or ash brown Is fit for a queen with golden crown Poplar gives a bitter smoke, Fills your eyes and makes you choke, Apple wood will scent your room Pear wood smells like flowers in bloom Oaken logs, if dry and old keep away the winter's cold But ash wet or ash dry a king shall warm his slippers by.

Just look at what happened with SBS!

I cut a big rectangle out so as to remove the pre punched knockouts. Then made a new gland plate to get the density I wanted. I even sprayed it the correct RAL colour.

My lad changed the stock 0.4mm nozzle on the X1C Bambu to a "Hardended Steel vs E3D 0.4mm High Flow ObXidian" (one of his Chrimbo pressies): Did a couple of "torture" test prints. They go from 15 mm³/s at the bed to 35 mm³/s. New nozzle on the left, stock one on the right. The stock print didn't adhere well and basically fell over: Printed in Bambu Lab PLA Basic Green. It really puts some volume down and smoothly too! A cut away of the new nozzle shows how the molten filament gets "pooled" then extruded through 2 (maybe 3?) channels to massively up the flow rate by something like 60%. With the new hot end, as the volumetric flow increases the strength remains more of a constant:

Tell me about it!
