don't think DPC or radon barrier is certified for a tanking application tho.

Went through the same process using LoopCAD. Looks like around 6.5kW for us for -2c/20c.

Not convinced the average plumber is any use for anything other than oil/gascombi/ rads. Finding one as good as @Nickfromwales truly is a needle in a haystack.

One local vendor was refusing to supply a direct air stove to me, citing that only a DIBt- certified unit would suffice in a dwelling with MVHR. Scaremongering...

Never mind the nay-sayers, @JohnW what stove were you thinking of, and have you had any discussion with the BCO about it's install ref MVHR?

What is temperature rating for a regular single pole 240vac switch?

True. It just seems... wrong. -

As standard white accessories are made of thermoset material, I'm sure they're good way higher than 40c. What are you going to wire with anyway? -
Static shock from vacuuming log fire ash - why?
dpmiller replied to readiescards's topic in Stoves, Fires & Fireplaces
metal based or not, it's the friction of the powder in the tube that causes problems. /it's a long time since I sat my ATEX certification but I'll never underestimate the risks of moving dusts, just as @Onoff describes. -
that's why we read the instructions too!

So they're parking upon your private land at times?

I'm reading it that same way. In AD F1 (2012) "SAP – the Government s Standard Assessment Procedure for Energy Rating of Dwellings: 2009 edition, or any later edition approved by the Department." But no confirmation that any later edition was so approved is obvious

Actually, I've got a question... Are we still meant to be using 2009 in NI rather than 2012?
-
As I'm currently faffing about with FSAP2012 to do the "as designed" for ours, this is timely. Keep me posted please.

I'm pretty sure their lab/industrial washers do have such information attached.

I'm very surprised there's no label with the serial no. on the outside of the packaging. Thought it was de rigueur these days.

how close is it? -
Oil boiler just serviced and now short cycling?
dpmiller replied to Diablo's topic in Boilers & Hot Water Tanks
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. -

dpmiller replied to Diablo's topic in Boilers & Hot Water Tanks
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?

dpmiller replied to Diablo's topic in Boilers & Hot Water Tanks
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...
