Ducting extractor hob on a kitchen island to outside wall
dpmiller replied to CJER's topic in Ventilation
regardless of it being room-sealed I don't believe you can have a woodstove in a room which has an extractor of any kind. Read the B-Regs very closely for your jurisdiction... -

dpmiller replied to Digmixfill's topic in Skylights & Roof Windows

buy a torque wrench? -
there was certainly a massive range of levels of completeness and support when we were dealing over ours. I'm really glad we went with our second option. @Kevan Marshall drop me a PM if you want an overview...

But leakage @50Pa would be much much more than leakage in normal conditions surely? -

Vaillant ashp (my battle with).
dpmiller replied to zoothorn's topic in Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHP)
one could always try not even moving the thermostat but just turning it up a few degrees. Wherever the tank is will still track the rest of the house, even if it's a wee bit higher... -
Interesting couple of days with the new heat pump.
dpmiller replied to MikeSharp01's topic in Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHP)
certainly with the older coolenergy units there is a selectable overshoot as well as the PID settings being accessible -

I had a makita-fit 6" chainsaw that came from the south american river shop and got a couple of years out of it till the brushes went catastrophically in the motor replaced it wth a similar one but BL this time and it was under £30 with two batteries, a slow charger, and a spare chain... -

dpmiller replied to Crofter's topic in Tools & Equipment
oddly enough, the crappiest item I have is a DeWalt circular saw- Binds up mid-cut if you so much as look at it the wrong way... conversely tho, my mate has all Parkside stuff. One of the best items he has is a cute looking wee 3.5" circular saw. Amazing thing, absolutely steams it's way through anything even at max depth of cut. -
