The issue as others have said is that ‘cheap ‘ providers won’t offer it . Also ‘old’ phones may be an issue . Being in my underground mega complex we rely on WiFi calling on our superior Apple phones ( superior to Android junk 😎😉 ). The more you ‘pay’ the more you get . You can purchase radio mast amplifiers for the various operators to extend to a poor signal area , but these are expensive . @ProDave you know it to be your calling . Upgrade to a modern Apple phone ( not the latest models ! ) - then enjoy the benefits . Join me young Jedi . Accept your fate , your destiny . I am your father !!! You can scream Noooooooo! At that point and be a humble left handed , vegetarian , Android user ( who had a zx spectrum ) .

I have wifi 6, should I wait for wifi 6 speakers?
Pocster replied to Adsibob's topic in Networks, AV, Security & Automation
What I did with my Dali wireless speakers is find the cheapest online ( usually a small seller rather than curry’s etc . ) . Tell them I’ll order literally now if I get a good discount . Only got another 5% off but better than a kick in the crutch . -
Well I’ve not had any strange local IP failure since I originally posted . HA all good ( though z wave can be slow to respond - but zingbee ( front row to matter ) - might get introduced ) raspberry pi’s all good ( mainly music players ) - rock steady reliability. My own heating control via HA - no issues . Home grown stuff pretty good Id say . Tesla PowerWall also very reliable . Solaredge battery … well , they dick around with it constantly. Every few weeks I seem to have to open a ticket with an issue . Lighting triggered by cctv rather than motion sensors a vast improvement. So it’s all good ….. until it goes wrong 🙄

Working correctly
Pocster replied to Pocster's topic in Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR)
So as a test to prove it’s all working could I block all outlet valves ( plug them ) and just leave the bathroom one open . I’m assuming then I should definitively feel air being drawn out as only 1 outlet valve in use . -

Will post photos later . How do you balance the system ? -
Working correctly
Pocster replied to Pocster's topic in Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR)
I’ve taken an outlet off . Still struggling to feel any air movement. But as I said , if I have a shower it doesn’t take long for the mvhr speed to ramp up - so it’s seems to be sensing humidity . -

No . Even I did that - how do I adjust airflow from outlets ? -

Changed the filters 3 months ago - they were filthy -
Incredibly difficult hole to seal
Pocster replied to j_s's topic in General Self Build & DIY Discussion
Sorry ; mis interpreted the title - my bad . -
It’s been been a while ; so perhaps I haven’t noticed . Inlet valves in rooms I can feel a definite air flow . Outlets ( to the outside ) ; so bathrooms etc. I can feel nothing at the vent . Even a piece of tissue infront the vent doesn’t stutter . This correct ? . Though if I take a shower the mvhr kicks in - so I assume working ???

You’re going to end up with 10 pumps in your build ! 😉😎 -
No . That’s the answer to this threads title . Sorted 😎

Support ? You know I didn’t (expletive deleted)ing call them . I just grow a big pair and bite the bullet 💪.

You just get a zoellar !

You know I’m going to say Zoellar again don’t you 😁

Is a ‘ tube float ‘ the tube with basically a ping pong ball in it ? These I found stick ! Given your situation I would leave current pump as is . Add a new 50mm pipe ( for another pump ) break out that pump recess so it’s larger . You can then have 2 pumps work in parallel each with an outlet ( 32mm and 50mm ) . If in doubt double up .

My slab out the rear does indeed has a fall and funnels water towards the pump. I do have then level pedestals ontop. It might be possible to put a concrete 'topper' with fall on your patio slab. Or ( depending on layout ) simply break a channel in it so water equally runs towards pump.

@Thorfun ; I can see now ! You are draining a big area 🙄 That can be a shit load of water on a rainy day ! . Pump away my friend . Belt ‘n’ braces all the way . I’m 4 pumps ( only 3 active at the moment ) and 2 sewer connections. You should certainly be doing no less .

Are you really getting the rainwater from an area of 15m x 8m? It’s hard to know the lay of your land . Is that area funnelling the rainwater to your sunken area and sump ? If so - then yes add a 50mm extra outlet and seperate pump . Before I started my build my area was exposed to rain ( I.e when just a concrete base in the ground ) . Without a pump the area would be a good few inches of water after substantial rain .
-
@Thorfun ; I’m currently on 1 rain water pump on a 32mm pipe no issues . Like you - had tons of rain . What’s the size of area that can attract rain and send it to your 1 pump ?. Can’t believe the pipe isn’t wide enough . Have you visually seen the pump output to the height require ? I.e pissing out not trickling ?I’m guessing maybe the pump isn’t man enough for the height you need ?

Looking at getting a van, what do you think?
Pocster replied to CalvinHobbes's topic in General Self Build & DIY Discussion
Sorry , mis read title of thread . That ‘v’ in van looked like an ‘m’ for a moment.
