Aluminium Vs Alic-Clad timber windows cost difference
dpmiller replied to flanagaj's topic in Windows & Glazing
you told a supplier how much money you had to spend? Ouch. -
Wiring an outdoor switch....basic question
dpmiller replied to saveasteading's topic in Power Circuits
are you absolutely sure the fault is in the cable rather than the light? the windy-on plastic things are called "wire nuts" and we're not in the US so you'd be better off thinking about Wagos... -
timezone can work two ways- full on/off, or programmable setpoints. Enable it only for setpoint, then add whatever timezones you need in C105-108. I *think* that these setpoints are then fed into the WC, but I'm not sure if they act as a minimum or maximum...

there's a bit of blurb in the v6.6 manual- and IIRC something slightly more detailed bit chenglish in the original Sprsun manual. But broadly, Day mode allows use of the full performance envelope, Night caps it for low noise, and low is weather comp. However, even the non WC modes throttle compressor speed based on ambient temp so... what might be useful for you is U02- startup differential and shutdown differential. They control how much below setpoint the unit starts, and how it slows down as it approaches setpoint.

Do you really need to weather-compensate the DHW temp? I use the timer function on our iVT9 for what you're proposing, basically doing a set-back of DHW temp overnight and then boosting it just before the end of the E7 timeslot, ready for showers

check tinternet for piccies of the bare valve so you know where to aim for

are you sure the contactors aren't the "other" way round, or their stats set so that the "wrong" one is doing the heavy lifting?

Change proposed Graf One2Clean to Tricel Novo?
dpmiller replied to flanagaj's topic in Waste & Sewerage
I think the Graf is like the Solido, with a pumped discharge using an airlift? @flanagaj I believe there's now a version of Solido with Nitrate reduction using a dosing system- have you seen it? -
it answers the question tho

a/c linkage is simple startup yep. -
Ducted chilled water fan coil options

yep, that contact overrides the current mode set in User Mask, according to Chris... -
not always. SBRs do an aeration/ settle/ decant cycle, within a single chamber.

Yes it is a pop up bar and needs to be moved around in a van maybe could have mentioned that earlier? -

Getting better at digging with an excavator?
dpmiller replied to Alan Ambrose's topic in General Self Build & DIY Discussion
practice and youtube. There were some great videos from (IIRC) Volvo in the US that helped me understand some of the stuff I'd watched my groundworker pal do so delicately -
Door linings: narrower than the opening
dpmiller replied to Post and beam's topic in Doors & Door Frames
If you only want cheapo softwood linings, Howdens do some useful sizes, like 115mm for 89CLS + PB -

Give me your thoughts on window design
dpmiller replied to flanagaj's topic in New House & Self Build Design
getting that glazing bar at the right height can reduce costs too as it can allow a downgrade in the glass above it. Our archtect designed this into our large front windows. -
blue square thing looks like a transit foam that hasn't been removed from the unit?
