Why not? It's more flexible - will work in any country with appropriate local cable. Perhaps the original product is better specced than the replacement you've bought.

You haven't explained the foil. This thread needs more twists and turns!

@Harry Bloomfield @freddiemercurystwin opposite ends of the spectrum there :D

Make an access panel in the base.

Never been challenged, even once. I had no idea this site had bot checks.

If in doubt, isolate. Your PV inverter should not energise its output if it does not detect mains voltage, so you could get away with not isolating it if you switched the main breaker off. But it's not going to cost you anything to do it thoroughly, so don't take the chance.

Metal sheds are prone to condensation forming inside and "raining" on the contents, so you're probably best avoiding them. Are you looking to store the BBQs or is this a place to use them in the winter as well?

How hot does it get in there on a sunny day? Is there a potential for the glue to soften to the point where it starts lifting?

Do condenser driers have a heating element?

I wouldn't even bother with that. My desk is just a cut ply edge, finished with PU varnish and looks good to me.

Concentrated glyphosate is so cheap, I am not sure why you would bother trying to concoct something. It cost me less than a tenner for what will probably last me more than a decade.

You will only see the heads of the sleeve nuts and bolts, same as with the existing screws.

I think a picture is in order here. Without knowing exactly what you're asking, how about sleeve nuts and bolts through the door? No need to fix into the timber then [as such].

Surely there's more than one bracket?

I'm no chemist, but what smells will be the volatiles and they're more likely to be driven off by gentle heating.

Perhaps it's both. IMG_20260208_174542.jpg - what's that vertical face below the T&G but above the flag? Whatever it is is damp enough for algae to grow on it. It is either the bottom of your shed, or in contact with it, and it looks damp. IMG_20260208_174758_edit_859851493546919.jpg - the...

What do you actually want at the end of this and what are you willing to compromise on? You seem confident that the sensible suggestions [ie, excluding the ones that come from people who don't understand the practicalities of leasehold living] won't give you a reasonable EPC. So are you happy...

If you're building a timber frame anyway then I think pads/piers makes more sense. Less material required, air flow under your frame and you don't have to worry so much about how wet the ground is in the area.

Might sound like a daft question, but do you have the fan on in the van? One person I know keeps the fan off, waits for the windows to steam up, turns the fan up to max, turns it off, waits for the windows to steam up, ...
