Nothing to do with vodka being expensive there then? -

Wouldn't you be better retaining the 3P in case you ever aspire to an EV that fast charges? -

One might suggest that uni fees are just a revenue stream for the Government eager to milk those of the electorate who can pay.

That's my ideal for my place, do a new roof and EWI under cover. A few major refurbs / fire damaged places have been covered like this near me.- 4 comments

I've witnessed hours of water testing on roofs / facades with no leaks. Then it rains for real and it pisses in! That's the real test imo.

Silicone applicators....let's not forget them!

New build: Solid walls vs cavity walls
Onoff replied to Sjk's topic in General Self Build & DIY Discussion
I've always wondered if you could "pour as you go" in a cavity wall with this stuff and not push the walls out? Wish the dicks at Ford hadn't filled the lower rear comers of my Capris with it though!- 30 replies

As above then redo the perimeter floor/wall line with Mapei cement grey. Reckon I can get it at 5mm bead this time! After that get the basin in. I need to mess around with pipework in the loft to get mains cold to the basin. That's a worry as a single mixer tap with traditional gravity fed hot. Wondering as to an inline prv on the mains cold to the basin? Thereafter titivating with skirting, new panelled door, inset loo roll holder, blind and so on. It'll be useable but COLD. Need to think how I feed the towel rail and UFH loop.

P17 says you can fit a 110mm vent to the unit assuming yours is a gravity outlet model? If so do that and send him a copy of this manual quoting what they say on p17. If so, sorted! Manual_Vortex_Installation_v7.pdf

So...2.8kW is all all nothing. With 3 x 1kW it could have been controlled to gradually ramp up further limiting overcooking. And how hard FFS to make the "immersion" removeable?
-
Have a look at Nicks comment about it being 3 x 1kW:

Baths been in use for months. No.1s only in the wc so far! Tomorrow night I'll likely tidy the silicone in the bath side tiling now I've the Fugi kit. Stil can't decide whether to rip out and redo the vertical silicone one side of the mitre in the shower corner. Might ask SWMBO if it's going to annoy her when she cleans it... Reckon I can get the joints neater:
-
Tempted to live with the wide, tapered grout line on the basis the sink will hide the majority. Just hoping it doesn't crack. If it does I'll silicone bead it assuming I can get the gun in! When this has gone off I'll silicone bits around the shelf:

Was sure somewhere I read they were changing to 3 x 1kW to allow for some redundancy if one failed... Virgin coconut oil at Lidl for £2.99/300ml. Melting point around 24degC...just thinking out loud...
-
Do it please. As I started reading your post I was wondering if there was a vertical access "tube". Is the existing thermistor chain removable? I wonder if SA would consider a retrofit sensor array a better controller could make use of? Is it one immersion heater in these units or 3 x 1kW or am I thinking of something else?
-
So a vertical string of multiple sensors in series that trip out a little before the crystallization temperature?
-
Let's hope it's not your stud detector! ?
-
Don't you then chance overcooking the PCM below the raised sensor array? Isn't it that it doesn't change state all at once but relies on convection currents that can't be "rushed"?
