Sorry, forgot the Temp T. lol This is a direct cylinder and is electric heating only? No gas boiler and cylinder coil. "Correct" EV is a bit hidden in the photo.

The system is all electric & the emersion stat is working as its around 52c temp & not drawing electric, so thats switched off as it should do & the prv should go up to at least 70C in temp before any release. For the sake of it i will change the pressure gauge this morning & the pvr. Any...

The gauge that was there leaked, so will replace today. But i put on a temporary gauge to test, but have removed that now. New drawing showing more below.

Was only fitted 9 months ago & the tundish alarm is not set very well, bit of an experiment. My fault. lol I am going to put the emersion on for an hour & see if somthing happens, but i have temp sensors everywhere & the tanks not gone over 52'ish C. PS: Just updated the alarm. Water only has to...

Hi, we fitted a pressurised hot water tank in the loft & the last few months we have been loosing about 1lt of water every hour through the night. Its now got a lot worse & as its intermittent & in the loft its not easy to catch when its leaking.as i got a bad back, so to check, last night i put...

Had a customer with a small chain of restaurants in the Herts area that had phone blockers installed. Even though ilegal he let all managers know that regular customers could get baby sitters & alike to call the restaurant. I personally agree with no phones in places like this & not a lover of...

Ah'ha, £17.35pm ;)

Might have your elec tariff wrong, but my tariff is 6.6p off peak & 0.25p peak & 9500kw works out at £198pm if all on peak. With off peak & battery's a lot less. I'm with Good Energy. & they paid the £50 to move, plus no questions on how i use the electric. IE: Must have an EV for battery...

And hate to think of the costs & how long to recover.

Personally i would ask around with what a heat pump cost to run. I would only be installing it if i was saving money on gas or electric. Quite often a heat pump is top up with another fuel, IE: electric. This will always be the most expletive fuel as it needs gas/oil/coal to produce it. So, at...

Personally i think its better to block off the cavity & shutter it & poor in concrete. Your guaranteed to get a perfect pad stone bridged across the cavity & spreading the load evenly. But even if using pad stones they should be bridging the cavity like image to spread the load.

Got to also remember thing change for a reason. Many appliances in a kitchen where often 3kw & i personally wouldn't put a 3kw appliance on a plug & would hard wire it in to a flex outlet plate. Plugs & sockets can often get warm & hot at 3kw = 13.4A at 230v. Thankfully many appliances are 2kw...

Agree! cant remember which country, but it was when the eastern block country's finished their wars & wanted to keep any rich people at home. Everyone was taxed at 20%, then after 30K it dropped to 18% & so on to 8%. They also gave the same person a extra 0.5% tax relief to each person they...

I get an annoying text most days that says i have earnt £2:73 today & have tried to stop it, once a month would be fine. .

Trading 212 But the offer was only for a short time with a 20k minimum & tide in for 12 months. There normal rate was 4.6%.
