What’s that word mean ? . On a self build it is a meaningless word ?
-
Have you worked out the cost /savings though of having 2 batteries at the higher electricity pricing ( and presumably only going to increase for the foreseeable future ) ?? . @SteamyTea is sad - once he’s finished his pasty he will do some maths and a chart .
-
Perhaps I’ll strap 2 on the front ; then I’ll match you ! . But you are going 3 phase I think - so you could have 9!!!! You installed / planned any battery / pv stuff yet ?

Reckon even uncle @Nickfromwales would ok this ….

Can’t that was the problem. The ceiling height above the wc is lower than the drain . Also mini pump station needs to be in the floor - can’t because of ufh .

My original Tesla lite plan has just ended ( no standing charge ; 11p per KW ; 11p export ) . Though Tesla take control of the battery . The property hasn’t been occupied in a proper sense for a year - so figures for usage / cost are not usable . On the verge of moving in now . The new Tesla lite tariff is less attractive. Gone for octopus go . Standing charge . 25p peak cost ; 5p off peak ( 00:30 to 04:30 ) . I control the battery . I know we all agree about ROI being poor . But as electricity prices increase and assuming a Tesla battery is the same price today there must come a point when a second battery is cost effective. Don’t want @Thorfun having 3 and I only have 1 ! Anyone got any rough calcs on how to prove/ disprove this ? . I currently have no real consumption values for my build ….

Expanding foam rant...
Pocster replied to Carrerahill's topic in General Self Build & DIY Discussion
Expanding foam is Satan’s way of restricting mankind from greater things . -
Lead in bed this morning not even thinking about this problem and then it dawned on me.?

The original thread Just in case anyone can be bothered to read it. Anyway! I think I have an acceptable solution. Macerating toilet pumps up about 1metre this then runs with a fall for about 14metres until outside into a proper pumping station . On route sink/washer/dishwasher all feed into it. As it's a pumping station I'm guessing this solves the issue . This would work yes???

Vibrator embedded in the wall for sure -
Integrated / built in dishwasher

Modern ones seem to project the time left / status on the floor to deliberately get over this issue -

Not a problem for me. The HA will inform me when it has finished -
Integrated / built in dishwasher
Pocster replied to Pocster's topic in General Self Build & DIY Discussion
Ah I see ! Tbh don’t care if panels visible or not . But I guess probably best if all hidden . So I guess any integrated will do -

Erm - we on about dishwashers still ? It would be a full size one if that’s what you are asking ( guessing that’s around 600mm wide ) -
Need to buy one but don’t have a permanent kitchen yet ? I want to be able to mount a kitchen cabinet door on the front to hide it in the final kitchen . Are kitchen doors all fitted to appliances the same way ? I.e any integrated dishwasher will do ??

Got the same ( and worse ) . Try de greasing ( multi solve ) first . Nothing abrasive though . X marks the spot ?
