    not illegal, just pointlessly expensive to license correctly as I understand it.

    It's not really a split tho, the pipes up and down are water not Fgas.

    But you do have the satisfaction of knowing where every wire goes and what the function of each relay, switch , or timer is. ?

    back to the waste oil option then

    there's nothing whatsoever wrong with the kit, it's the installation that is crap!

    IR is definitely the ticket here unless you actually have a need to condition all the air in the space. Any of the smaller garages or workshops I go into use the Infrasun style diesel heaters to make specific working areas comfortable and they work remarkably well https://www.powertoolsdirect.com/sip-1822-infrared-diesel-paraffin-heater or the baby version https://www.dwtoolshop.com/sealey-ir20-infrared-paraffin-kerosene-diesel-heater-20-5kw-230v

    the bottom two rows of tiles kick up a helluva bit. Did the damp follow windy weather? I'd suggest the felt at the eaves is questionable at least.

    ref. distances to boundaries, and garage (petrol storage) vs garden shed.

    yep, I can see it on the pc

    Are there requirements to fireproof this building?

    Sandy is just in the process of sealing all ours at the moment with the Larsen pink Acrylic primer. I'd done the floors that I'd already tiled with it, as I'm using their tile adhesive... The MIs say a single 50/50 coat is permeable but you could give Larsen Technical a call for confirmation

    is this the upright Condor, or the Solido Smart? We've the latter and it's very good.

    Bwahahaha! Priceless!!!!

    and???

    @Adsibob you referenced upstands and window cills in another thread, could this be the issue?

    what are the two bypass controls set to? and is the hidden isolator fully open?

    The ASHP will have a minimum flow requirement We've about 650m over 12 loops of very unequal lengths- from around 30 to 90m. But I've no problem getting heat to all the rooms with a Yonos Pico 25 1/6 running at under 2m. There's about 1.5l/s on the loops with the highest demand

    Modern fridges do indeed have a "standby" consumption. Compressor control isn't just a capillary stat any more...

    We're pretty airtight (a wee bit over 1ACH) and our hood which is rated at 600m3/hr on full will a. open the sealed, weighted, gravity flap in the duct at low speed b. depressurise the house to about 30Pa when on full. ...but the supply flows increase when it's on as fans happily freewheel and bypass. I haven't yet been able to detect reverse flow at the extract vents so at worst airflow is stalling on the extract side. I would do a fair bit of stirfry and pulling the air out of the house for ten minutes is a better option to me than the possibility of greasing up thee nearby ducts...

    Might there be fire protection implications to a ventilated riser like this?
  21. dpmiller
    Yep, the extractor will happily overrule the MVHR for the short time it's on.
  22. dpmiller
    @Iceverge do you not have MVHR?
  23. dpmiller
    If it's so easy, can you not do it yourself?

    and it won't help much if you do open it, Dave. It's a blokey in his shed making stoves to his own design and reselling some others. No website, and no mention of a manual...

    Have you a copy of the full test cert for the unit, rather than just the COP quoted in the manual? It has a bit more info on when defrosts are likely, the required compressor speeds etc I've attached it just in case you don't... do you see the water pump throttling back much? I'd opine that flow through the heat exchanger (and therefore deltaT across the unit) is going to have more of an effect than fan speed. But again, look in Fan configuration to see the compressor speed and fan speed limits per ambient temp. CE-iVT9 EN14825 64.181.20.04362.01 Rev.00 TR Performance Pages.pdf
