  1. £6 is 10 litres of oil these days, which would run the average oil boiler for about 4 hours?
  2. is "aircrete" actually noted tho? Ordinary blocks can come in 3.6N too...
  3. because as has been mentioned a number of times above they could tip over injuring or causing damage. Think of the risk to the GCNs!
  4. https://apc-gb.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/BS5252-Ral-Cross-Reference.pdf 7021?
  5. Defrost gets a whole section to itself within the engineer's menu. I found it was a bit aggressive for our location so have shortened the duration and extended the minimum time between defrosts. Plus the ambient sensor was a bit too close to the evaporator which didn't help...
  6. Don't think I've seen this posted before- it's a more full and descriptive guide to the settings on the Carel https://sprsun.nl/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Function-description-of-DC-inverter-heat-pump.docx.pdf
  7. They're a local supplier, but the kit will be Garador or the likes. Can't assist on pricing as it was included in the cost of the shed. The two guys were here for a couple of hours. There's not much to the install, you could happily do it yourself. A lot depends on the squareness of the opening tho...
  8. The one in Nods photos is the same as ours, supplied for our shed by Garage Door Systems https://garagedoorsystems.co.uk/products/insulated-roller-doors/ foam filled slats, brush seals at the sides etc
  9. All our PB was Siniat, and I *think* it came through MacBlair (can't remember 100%, it was supplied under our TF contract...)
  10. Flexis are recommended regardless, but yes either a formed bend or a radiussed bend fitting instead of those elbows. Personally I'd try to minimise the number of those pressed fittings used where possible as their ID can be surprisingly small...
  11. Don't go near CEF or any of the other big boys, seek out a small indy wholesaler- or just go to Screwfix...
  12. sort that knot of restrictive elbows at the back of the outdoor unit and your issues will disappear, I reckon. No calculator needed.
  13. you'll need to help us a wee bit here- pushfit and solvent are different sizes, but some compression fittings can span both, not really a "brand" thing. What exact sink trap do you have there?
