Smart meters - reasons for? 1. Save the planet, make some polar bears happy, save the voters some money? or 2. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/energy/6292809/Smart-meters-could-be-spy-in-the-home.html The UKs electricity generation 'plan' is failing - combining the old...

Funnily enough, that's what was said when I posted about fitting a store in my house last year. Actually, not that funny, or helpful, but nice try anyway. If you click on my profile, or name, or something, you can get thru eventually to my album, with pics with my boiler and store. It does...

Having been on the Chelmer site again, it's very vague with regard to full performance specs. From here, I'd say that if you sort your expansion volume out and reduced your boiler flow temp from 88 (my Vaillant doesn't even go that high!!) down to 70, that would solve nearly all your...

I am not a plumber by the way. But anyway.. Your boiler is 40kw - that's big. The way you word things it works as follows - flow from boiler serves at least two primary things - the store, and 22 rads which are themselves possibly zone-valved off into separate zones. For it to work...

I think that's right - it's not been fitted correctly. I read this last night - I'm responding not because I know much about heating, but because I have a thermal store, kind of designed between me (about 20% - a crazy wishlist partly taken off the internet) and a bloody good plumber (the other...

Now THAT is a good idea! I'll give it a go tomorrow with some plywood offcuts. Ta :mrgreen:

Ta for the replies. I looked around a bit before buying the travertine, and this one seems pretty good, with few voids and holes compared to Topps 'like a sponge' stone, so I'm hoping it's the tools not the tiles ...or the tiler :wink: Must be the carp blade - marcrist it is then after the...

Hi, quick question regarding tile saws. This is the first time I've tiled with a stone, rather than a ceramic tile, so I knew my rubi scribe-n-snap wouldn't 'cut it'. Bought a Silverline tile saw, similar to this...

After my store was in and working, I agreed with advance that they could use my contact details if a customer wanted to speak to someone who already had a store. Maybe they asked because I didn't just order one off them straight away, I pestered them half to death with questions first, learning...

Another option might be a screwdriver bit attachment (usually philips hex bit stuck in an 8mm socket) in the ratchet from a 1/4" drive socket set - you can lever down on the ratchet head and drive the screw in a bit at a time.

One thing I certainly wouldn't recommend is buying a similar tap at a big diy-type superstore, and then returning it the day after as bits appear to be missing from the box. Ahem. Cough.

After watching the handbags flying for the last 24 hours, I'm going to type something, but only because I reckon I had a phone conversation with the OP a couple of nights ago. Usually leave the fist fights and happy-slapping to my kids, but this looks too good to miss. I am not a plumber. But...

A Google finds this - http://www.bes.co.uk/products/117.asp £££ :shock: Ouch. Clever. But £££ Ouch. It'd be £200+ for the 3 port :shock: And it'd be interesting to know it's response time as it's spec'd for ufh which seems to work with the changing of the seasons rather than tenths of...

Yep, 1/2" std thread. My casing is plastic coated steel then foam under - may be tricky making neat holes in the steel case. All I have is a flow switch on the water feed to the plate, switching on the shunt pump - so any smart pump would only work if something like the Danfoss/DPS...

I really don't type very fast do I :lol: BB has come up with some very useful food for thought, and without that I perhaps wouldn't have got this far. So thanks very much, I appreciate it :D I want solar because I reckon you can do it on the cheap and I also have quite a bit of free...

Hi, re the sensor pockets, they're just tapped holes in the cylinder into which you can screw a sensor pocket as supplied with a thermostat. Point to note is if you have coils and 3 immersions, things may get tight in there - be interesting to see if it's physically possible to get everything...

It could have a screw in each wall and corresponding key-shapes on the sink, hooking it down and over the screws. Add tiles above the basin to stop it sliding up, and it'll not come off easily.

Hi Tim, yes it's Advance Appliances. Base-model-wise, I'm not sure - it's a 2 coil 300l store, with 4 28mm tappings for the shunt pump and space heating flow returns. There are 5 tappings (I think) for the sensors/stats. The label does say 'customer bespoke specification' on it. Cost-wise, I...
