flow rate in each room & fans
dpmiller replied to irnbru's topic in Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR)
there's a damper or restrictor either at each room terminal or in the manifold. Have you bothered to look at any suppliers websites yet? -
How to get an extra 2 SAP Points?
dpmiller replied to Andeh's topic in General Self Build & DIY Discussion
our IZI is a pretty massive helix of 10mm copper inside the drain pipe and the cold feed to the mixer goes through it -
Can a fully discharged lithium solar battery be charged
dpmiller replied to lakelandfolk's topic in Energy Storage
All depends what embedded BMS (if any) there is. -
"no build announced" for us, which is laughable because BT have already washed their hands of the area and it's part of the Project Stratum initiative. Even moreso as BT have ceased new copper lines at the two local exchanges...

how much is this bargain battery costing? -
James McGregor in Belfast harbour estate would've been my first thought, but they're now part of Murdocks I think now?

Alternative broadband supplier questions
dpmiller replied to ProDave's topic in Networks, AV, Security & Automation
I'm going to throw in a hearty recommendation for www.voipify.net, their service is excellent, prices are good, and I had no problem with the porting. -
I believe you can buy it outright without a sub, but no idea what it does without one.

It wouldn't be my cup of tea, but this exactly what the Sky Glass device purports to do. All channels, all off the internet.

I'm gonna channel @Nickfromwales just for a moment and ask you to check whether the arrow on the pump body is pointing the right way up?

Have you had the lead replaced now? -
Don't think there's an option in NI, no.

Appealing the Valuation Office Agency
dpmiller replied to willbish's topic in General Self Build & DIY Discussion
can't say for GB but the Rates valuation in NI goes by floor area *including outbuildings*. I'm paying dearly for a shed... -

Looking at the way that flexiduct is strained, I wonder if it's worth re-doing that properly while you're in there?
-
Yep, quite a few larger people carriers and SUVs have a fuel powered auxiliary heater as standard. They're run on a tiny dribble of fuel and the later ones even have the water pump packaged inside. All in a unit smaller than a shoebox /image shamelessly copied

^that's a Webasto / Eberspacher clone, and they've very good. A friend got one of the boxed ones w/ fuel tank, timer etc all built in and it's an impressive piece of kit. I've one of the 5kW water heating ones in the garage (out of an old Ford Galaxy IIRC) that's never been put into use. Some day...

Plumbing UVC with Condensing Boiler, How to....
dpmiller replied to Gone West's topic in Boilers & Hot Water Tanks
As much as everyone says it won't work, this^ is how I've set up our system on an ASHP. 270l TS, with PV diverter *and* tappings for a boiler stove which isn't installed yet. At "normal" ASHP DHW temps there's enough in the tank to provide a 10min shower without the heatpump cutting in, but if SWMBO has an extended shower the ASHP will happily start, hold and start to restore the temperature during the aft end of said shower, and be fully recovered after a <30min burn. In electric costs it's working out less than half the cost of the previous 9kW shower in the other house... -
thick clear poly is what was used on our TF kit

do you have a vent stack? -
Waste Water Heat Recovery Systems - low profile?
dpmiller replied to Andeh's topic in General Plumbing
The inline IZI is just 40mm in and out. -
on the app actually, but you can see the contact state in IO Mask too. Next time it's energised I'll see if the current is monitored in the Carel service screen, too
