    how close is it?

    I was only asked to bleed it following an outage and when diagnosed it was handier to get her to call the local OFTEC guy as he's at the far end of the estate and I was away working the next day anyway. We both use the same trade outlet.

    Ah... hang on a mo. Is this a Riello burner? If so my neighbour just had this happen. Oilpump. Would make pressure on purge, but as soon as the solenoid opens pressure drops to zero. Brief puff of flame then nothing. I opened the pump and it was full of glittery bits.

    papier mache was the old way of dealing with this kinda thing?

    Is it going into lockout (red light on?)if it's only running for a few secs and the boiler is defintely cold I'd definitely look at the photocell. If the boiler is hot then I might consider the pump...

    They do, yes. Quote request sent.

    Whilst a powerful enough laser might well burst a balloon, my point was that the laser aint part of the IR measuring system...

    laser's nothing to do with it, it's only a sight.

    On top of a flat roof? http://www.pluginsolar.co.uk/?product=plug-in-solar-4kw-4000w-diy-solar-power-kit-with-renusol-console-tubs-for-ground-or-flat-roof edit : @JSHarris beat me to it.

    apply some black magic marker or the like to the pipe (or the shiny PHE) first, as clean copper doesn't give a good reading.

    Spotted this as a new item in BES might be handy for this kind of app. https://www.bes.co.uk/flat-faced-angled-isolation-valve-15mm-x-1-2-bsp-pm-23571

    Not as yet. Kinda put off by the amount of negative press they get tbh.

    just for a comparative pricepoint, we're looking at roughly 35m2 including composite front door, sizeable multipanel front windows, and a set of french doors, over 16 openings. Supply and fit 70mm UPVC wih foiled exterior and units in 4/20/4 DG with warm edge and low-E, we're looking between £170 and £200/m2

    ^ the latest one without the green cladding is stronger.

    I just see this: " Sorry, we can't show this content because you do not have permission to see it. "

    I'd agree with this. You'd really want to be able to lock out the feedback while doing duct balancing.

    no, he looks wonky from here too.

    they rebrand Titon units IIRC.

    Surely the groundworks you need permission for are any commencements. Any precommencements (clearance, site levelling and land drainage) are F-all to do with BC.

    but if you're just scraping off an area to retain topsoil, why is the datum so important?
  21. dpmiller
    Any OS maps with contours for your area?

    I bought a £15 chinese laser measure (branded Snoway) off Ebay and I've got to say, it's superb. Deadly accurate and with a good bright laser.

    And knowing how unobservant many drivers are, probably a good idea...

    What might help, is a slight change in terminology. I see plenty of "MBC frame" "MBC build" and "MBC slab" but is there really anything unique about the product? Surely it's a TF or passiv slab *by* MBC. It's not a Hoover, it's a vacuum cleaner.

    You need a fair old area of enclosure to stop carbon granules being terribly restrictive, from my fumecupboard experience. Does mean dear, but also means plenty of storage capacity. http://www.carbonfiltersdirect.com/ are my supplier of chioce for carbon cassettes if anyone fancies building a housing around one.
