  1. not with the tile, but happy t confirm they're a well-respected manufaturer
  2. and if you're going EPS, make it the graphite stuff, substantially better for minimal extra cost.
  3. yep normal enough. If you've room to fit an EGO one in, they last a bit better in my experience?
  4. does it need to be outside? could it be hid above a soffit?
  5. You could probably do what's done with 3hp x2 tandem compressors, just put a short delay on one of the motors. It only takes a second for the first motor to come up to speed and reduce it's consumption to sane levels, then there's plenty of juice to kick the other one in. I doubt a second would put the screws too far out of balance...
  6. at the very least, reducing/ chamfering that row of tile under the flashing is required.
  7. you could always try tightening the bolts on the end flange a wee bit, likewise if there's a nut retaining the valve body. But I wouldn't try too hard, at £40...
  8. is this mains or low voltage?
  9. Different way of skinning the cat really. There are savings in electricity obviously and ours seems to do well without the various recirculation paths that the likes of the Conder have. I've yet to see any floating residue on the liquor, it's always a seething mass when aerated and settles quickly to clear water before discharge.
  10. Kinda. With an SBR (small batch reactor) plant, the unit aerates/settles a number of times, before a longer settle and then a timed pumped outflow. With our Solido, there's about a foot of level difference between the normal pumped/ controlled level and the "safety overflow" level that the liquid ends up at during a pump or power failure
  11. your building regs will tell you. Remember most of the guys here are in GB...
  12. would depend on the resistor.
  13. well if they're just normally_open, a resistor might be used to control any stray voltages that could be induced in the wiring
  14. are the call points a normaly open/ closed switch, or instead some kind of addressed device?
  15. well there's one of the faces on that podcast means I won't both watching it...
  16. just set the stats differently so one will switch off when the flow temp starts to come up?
  17. A lintel would't be too hard to set in surely, its not structural after all...
  18. Another vote for a Jack & Jill door setup if you should decide to make the change
  19. check with local demolition and disposal firms, crushed rubble is good for this
  20. there are "semi-prescription" safety glasses too, you just order them using the SPH from your prescription. I got a pair for a couple of quid from Aliexpress
  21. cheapo ordinary socket of the right OD, and an angle grinder or file...
  22. If it's some kind of service conduit cover, are you *sure* you actually own it?
  23. yep, the original ones are DL. I'd have to trawl my history a bit (did a search just after SBS disappeared) but I seem to recall them coming from Oz but also being on Aliexpress
