I know exactly what you should do , it’s easy . But because you didn’t tag me I’m not going to tell you ! Darn ! I’m 2 years to late ! -

Yes agree with the Gxx requirement. Just suggesting that exporting isn’t the be all and end all - though clearly the system needs to be installed with compliance.

Tbh if you plan a battery soon ( ish ) the export rate you are permitted becomes far less important. I can only export 3.6kw but I can store 23kw . Initially my plan was to export everything I could ; now it’s to store everything I can . Export rate is pretty poor ( 4.1p kw ) - so better to store .

Oh what memories they bring back ! Do you remember the automated neutral analysis localiser I used on you ? ( for dumb asses that’s A.N.A.L ) -
I’m sure it’s bad practise , but ….. macerator pipe 32mm over a long run of 14m . Potential problem in the last 2m . Can I step the pipe ( 45 degree tee for example ) . Or if that’s bad use a reducer to say take it to 54mm then do the step ….. 🤔

UVC in basement plant room but no drainage for overflow

Seem to remember you guys noticed no tundish in one of my rentals . Job was all signed off and ‘ finished ‘ apparently. I got him back to add one though he was of course pissy for an ‘optional ‘ addition . It’s a safety feature so it’s mandatory ( not just rules but even in my own view ) . -

Pocster replied to Thorfun's topic in Boilers & Hot Water Tanks
@Thorfun ; my view of these things is you HAVE solutions. Whether it's a pipe run or a 800 quid pump. Don't beat yourself up over a relatively small cost addition to the entire project. Currently as SWMBO requests (wants!) a basement WC ( which I didn't plan for ) is adding around 3k in materials ( macerator toilet and pumping station ). So you got off lightly! -

Pocster replied to Thorfun's topic in Boilers & Hot Water Tanks
Same experience for me. Architect made no mention of the UVC needing 'overflow'. UVC installer did though. I recall ( it was a few years ago ) that he said pump - I pulled a face and pointed at the perimeter drain. He seemed happy with that. Though lets be honest a perimeter drain is plastic and isn't afaik designed to take boiling water. The only 'professionals' I found that would communicate ( because they have to ) was the architect with SE. This would usually result in an argument to a problem where they both recommend I install BOTH their methods. Needless to say I would simply choose what method I determine was best as I felt they were being A-holes and 'professional' pride ( not to admit the other solution was better by the other party ) was the issue...... -

Pocster replied to Thorfun's topic in Boilers & Hot Water Tanks
It’s impossible to know everything in advance . As you point out your architect didn’t even mention it . Assuming there are no other possible routes then the only solution is a pump of some sort . We all ‘miss’ things due to lack of hindsight - I should know ! 😁 -

No chance of getting a pipe in the wall studding ? . Only need a slight fall . -

No sunken garden or basement patio doors ? . Just trying to think if you could get a pipe from uvc to outdoor but below ground space . -

So what’s your method for dealing with water potential ingress ? . I can’t remember the make up of your basement structure . -

Is there simply no pump that can cope with that ??
