  1. I'd need a 7 mile long pipe to get mains gas to our house. What do you reckon the payback time would be on that vs the ASHP?
  2. getting a quote generally trumps displayed web pricing, in my experience.
  3. Yep, I used PluginSolar as well. great service and no hassle with delivery.
  4. For both our Hemihydrate screed and the cemetitious tile adhesive, the recommended primer was Acrylic and my calibrated nose reckons it was just a very dilute bottle of liquid tanking... This was the product of choice: https://www.raygrahams.com/products/119743-larsen-styrene-acrylic-copolymer-primer-1-litre-bottle.aspx
  5. what exactly does UV do to aluminium please?
  6. Have you ever had the well water tested for iron?
  7. ^that's the approach I took.
  8. there might be inhibitor, but those flow gauges sure look stinky. I wonder if the residue is building up on the valve pin and then scoring the sealing O-rings...

  12. did the temperature drop overnight?
  13. it's a first floor then, not a GF?
  14. Silicones make fish-eye pinholes in paints...
  15. do you know the exact location on-the-ground of the pipe? the drawing may not be accurate...
  16. "not worth"?
  17. how can the tank be exhausted if it's being reheated simultaneously?
  18. Hi there, whereabouts are you?
  19. plus you can go hybrid- cable the easy ones, then wireless off them too. I chose to go wireless and to add the fancy test button and a relay box to integrate MVHR control and CO sensing.
  20. yes, and (originally) yes. Tricity bendix too...
  21. which means your choice of Zanussi or AEG at the spec you desire.
  22. Slight benefit in defrosting perhaps.
  23. put the buffer on the return.
  24. A velux isn't complete without it's flashing kit.
