so they are barring you access to your property? Straight to the Police in this case.

Vibration isn't just the stuff you can see or feel. There's a compressor being driven at a nice 150 or 200Hz, just right for a hum travelling down the pipe.

Washer required or not - ASHP Flexi Hose
dpmiller replied to crispy_wafer's topic in General Plumbing
yep. -
Why does it need court? If the boundary is *actually* some distance out from your wall they must have trespassed in order to fit anything to your wall and you are at liberty to remove same. If you can confirm that the boundary is a metre out (or whatever), let THEM be foolish enough to try legal action...

that'd be a good trick with check reveals

why not Wilo?

or cheaper still direct from China

Jeremy Harris had noise issues IIRC. As far as I'm concerned, if the unit is on flexi-feet of some kind then flexys are a must.

In the picture with the garage door, where exactly *is* the boundary and has this been confirmed by a mapper?
-
the insulation was just as a soft packer to ensure the slab was clear of the wall.

ours sits on the back step and I slipped a strip of inch EPS along the wall before the guys poured, for isolation.

we run a TS but with the heat pump on a coil (so no massive amount of glycol needed). I've it configured to have all CH flow passing through the coil as a buffer, and the tank heated farther during the DHW times. The CH can therefore run off diverted heat from the PV as well as from the boiler stove which is plumbed direct to the TS. My observation is that you can slurp heat out of the bottom coil of the tank quick enough that the bottom of the tank goes cold. Are you sure your scheme won't suffer from stratification and not actually hold as much heat as you anticipate?

I think I just uninstalled, cleared registry entries, and put it back on again? -
Vent axia heat recovery fault
dpmiller replied to Mikeyken's topic in Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR)
next would be to check the connections between the mainboard and the internal display, I'd guess. Power off first! and if you can isolate the internal and reconnect the remote one, that'd be next (sorry it's a while since I've had ours apart and don't recall how the front display and mainboard connect) -

disconnect the wired controller at the local end, and see if the unit then works. -
Mitigating Risk With Upfront Payments To Timber Frame Companies?
dpmiller replied to thefoxesmaltings's topic in Timber Frame
I was very happy with the terms we got from the small-ish TF co we dealt with. 30% deposit 10% on completion of design, to release structural drawings to BC balance on completion of erected structure with an offer from the Co to withhold an amount to cover any missing or snagged portions -
surely tho you'd need two pumps else the risk is the same?

Using a PV energy diverter to heat a hot water tank.

Immersion diverter - can these confuse the app "usage" data?
dpmiller replied to MrTWales's topic in Photovoltaics (PV)
I've been doing a bit of searching. and gleaned that the diverter in this thread is indeed the same as the CoolEnergy one, and if anyone wants to deal direct with the chinaman you can have one from the manufacturer direct. I'll not post a link but you'll find it on Aliexpress from "Runhu" and it'll cost you about £140 including shipping and vat. photo of internals The fan is a bit bigger than the iBoost's by the looks of it, and the general build is so similar that I'd opine they could be the OEM for it too, lol -
where does the lift plant go?

check the status of your local exchange- some are already closed for new copper connections and FTTP is the *only* possibility.
