  1. During the recent cold spell my 25kW Viessman w200 system boiler returned 5 firings over a burner run time of 62 hours modulating down to 8.7%. Mind you it was minus 8.5C outside. I wish I could repeat as a general rule.No weather comp just setting flow temp of 43C and ufh 5 zone with room stats at 22C and 4 rads on 1st floor.
  2. The link I posted gives me the following page. I took delivery of mine today and work fine. It’s linked to my WiFi.
  3. Seems to fit the bill https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006685117920.html?ug_edm_item_id=1005006685117920&pdp_npi=4%40dis!USD!US %2411.69!US %2411.69!!!!!%4021411b9617348946115781533dbd66!12000038008981990!edm!!!&edm_click_module=alg_product_l1r2_8673744030&creative_img_ind=1&edm_log_data=edm-item-list-left-one-right-two.store-product-log-link&tracelog=rowan&rowan_id1=aeug_edm_23866_1_en_US_2024-12-22&rowan_msg_id=johnCOWS_23866_$96b1ea87f37a4911bd22edd667d8046b&ck=in_edm_other
  4. I’ve just disconnected my timer and put a plug on my circulation pump. Plugged this into a smart pug and I tell Alexa to run the pump for 2 mins or ask it to set a schedule. Echo dot in kitchen and 3 bedrooms. Voila, hot water when needed without excessive hw circulation. Simples
  5. Useful case law regarding consistency in planning In planning law, there is a “principle of consistency” in decision-taking: see North Wiltshire District Council v Secretary of State for the Environment (1993) 65 P & CR 137. The principle is not that like cases must be determined alike, but a decision-taker ought, when considering a materially similar proposal, to have regard to the principle of consistency, to have good reason if deciding to depart from the previous decision, and to give reasons for any such departure.
  6. Amtico Click Smart LVT for me 130 square meters fitted over in screed wet ufh, not a problem. Down 3 years and looks as good as day laid. https://www.amtico.com/collections/amtico-click-smart/
  7. You could always put a Freedom of Information Request for the documents not on their website. There are timescales for the production of the information. I had issues regarding deletion of some of my planning file and delved into it and mentioned section 8 of the attached document. It worked! Openness of LG Bodies Regs 2014.pdf

    Anybody got a code they wish to share for £50 Got a good deal for EV and battery 12 to 7am at 6.9p per kWh and SEG at 16p
  9. We put in a draft application for costs as an appendix to our Appeal document, offering to withdraw the application if the LPA withdrew any objections to the appeal. They didn’t, we won and got the costs award. I did most of the groundwork like going to see a barrister in London on direct access and getting the planning consultant to present the case. The barrister’s opinion was invaluable and well worth the 1k. The pressure of a costs application goes some way if you play your cards right.
  10. I’ve been tracking it for a while, decision must be due soon. Appellants final comments were due in January. The officer’s report is worth a read too.
  11. Came across this case in Chester and Cheshire West. Many paralells and a statement of case which may help. https://pa.cheshirewestandchester.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=documents&keyVal=RU12LMTEFUY00
  12. I have a 10 kWp array and a 6kW inverter with 2 x 9.4 kWh dc coupled batteries. A feature of this is when PV production is over the rated output of the inverter I can charge the batteries with excess using uninverted dc direct from the array. My batteries will take a max charge rate of 7 kW. I use octopus flux to export with the max export rate available between 4 and 7pm. A feature I have found is to export at the full rate 6kW less the house load whilst using the surplus to charge the batteries. i can get the best of both worlds export max export during sunny weather and full export at the peak time. These screenshots should illustrate the options. As soon as my battery if full I lose the facility and any excess is clipped. The alternative is to dump power into my UVC but I can get 16p and kWh export upto 4pm and 26p from 4 to 7 and my gas costs me 6p a kWh. so it makes sense to heat the water off gas Much manual involvement but it seems to work well. Is this a feature with othe systems or just particular to SolarEdge?
  13. We have Amtico click smart same 27C max. No problems with little or no expansion seen in 2+ years
  14. I look after a disabled fella for 2 days a month who has sky glass. My observations are; it buffers when he is online with other things and when his broadband is down he cannot default to freeview. The picture quality is muckhausen.
