I have seen the advert of course it is silent to those in the house, it's outside, it is the neighbours who have to put up with any noise. But winter likely everyone's windows are closed, only in summer will those without the heat pump have their windows open, that is of course if that model is...

Well test done. Notice given on phone, the battery charger showing bright lights. But as to why one would want the feature, not so sure! Although telling me when the batteries have been charged may be handy, but I like to have a rest between discharging each set of batteries.

I read about charge guard, which it seems monitors the power used, by a battery charger, and once it drops below a set level, starts a timer to turn it off, I can see with my drill batteries this would be useful, as the 6 green LEDs which show when batteries are fully charged light up the...

I needed some more for fans around the house. The main thing is the auto off timer, my old fan had a timer built in, so would auto stop, new ones that function is missing. I use Tapo (TP-Link) in the main, so three versions look the same, P100, P110, and P110M the P100 does not have the timing...

Your eyesight clearly better than mine.

Looking at this switch it seems there are three cables one red black which is likely the ceiling rose to switch cable and likely goes to L1 and L2 with some wires from a triple and earth cable and if the wires of the twin and earth were moved to Com and L1 instead and the triple and earth cable...

Seems there is a problem there, @denso13 needs to read the replies first. If it were me, I would fit it, and if asked always call it a heat pump, don't call it air conditioning, and likely no one will question which direction it can work in.

I fitted solar panels just at the point when billing agents changed their rules, I had an export meter fitted, but by time I came to register they were no longer accepted. I also made a mistake, the installers said they would do all the work to get us set up with Scottish Power, but my wife...

Your lucky they are going to change it. I had solar panels fitted, and could not be paid for export until smart meter is fitted, took three months and three attempts before it was changed.

I don't have gas, only oil, I noted a drop in cost when I moved house, and no longer used gas, but as to due to control or price of fuel can't really say. I am sure if heating water for a bath, oil is cheaper to electric, last 6 years, I have had one bath. Not sure today if I had a bath, I...

With that diagram not surprised, step one is work out what you have. L, N, and Earth OK. I can't find an instruction set for the Unit, so trying to work out what the 'Function Switch' and 'Period Switch' So this switch is the once, twice, or constant, and this one the water only, off, water...

Easy way is to use DC. Diodes will allow that with ease. But will AC looking at relays. DC lamps here

Normally the light would be switched, and the fan would use a remote control, so would wire something like this. Can't understand why only two wires, how do you work light and fan independently?

Looks like a standard conduit box to me. Old would be 2 BA new would be 4 mm and 2 inches apart. This has been a standard for years, so the Ikea slots should match that standard. As said you do need permission from Landlord to do this work, and normally they will require a minor works...

Mine has a bung to remove to empty condensate when defrosting, but I would test does it get cold? I fit even so often an energy meter, I know in good order it runs between half and a third of the time, so after a week I look and see what it has used. If on run it uses 50 watts, and in 24 hours...

I am watching for replies, seems crazy to me, advert everywhere for heat pumps, and then told if used for cooling different rules apply. But it seems down to individual councils to set their own rules, but wonder if called a heat pump rather than an AC if the rules change? They are of course...

This house had an aerial in the loft, and it will just about pick-up freeview, but the range of programs available from Moel-y-sant is so small really no point. It seems freely has taken over from freeview, although in the main I get free TV from YouTube. We did try one of these plug in...

In North Wales, I had no need for a car, buses into Chester and Mold every ½ hour, less if I walked to main road, and the buses were full, ran from around 6:30 am to 11 pm, but here in Mid-Wales depends on the time of year. Trains only run in the summer, nothing early morning or late at night...

That's me out then.

Sorry, I still use a smart socket with a timer and manually empty the container every time the AC stops. In the past ACs I have worked on, did have an auto stop if the reservoir was not emptied by the pump, but the pump its self was on a float control. I can't work out how to wire with what is...
