Just another check in for anyone reading and considering one of these in the future and also a question. It's been up and running for a couple of weeks now and had some beautiful days with temps in the conservatory mid afternoon at 29 deg c one day. I stuck the air con on and it brought the...

Well I went for the 3.5kw cool easy high wall easy install model and it's now up and running!! Thanks for the recommendation. Chris

Pleased you got the PM just a pity you can't make it. In the mean time, if you have any further recommendations for a DIY install unit, stick them up here. Chris P.s I recommend Olive gets some canesten ointment.

Anyone? Sorry for the impatience but I need to decide on something asap.I can see from the posts that heating a conservatory is hard and people are being clever saying don bother but at the end of the day, what's the best method in this bad situation? Surely putting something in must be better...

Ok so I'm confused. What's the difference between the link above and the type of unit PullerGas has recommended? Also if the one above requires an install, this is going to massively increase costs compared to the £450 diy fit unit in the other link. Sorry. .. got to ask the questions as I...

Hi guys, a bit confused about the comments. In my naivety I thought that a air heat pump and what you have linked to are the same thing! So you think the one in the link will be suitable for a diy install and reasonably heat the conservatory? A better option than say cheap mat underfloor...

Morning The more I read the more I believe that an air to air heat pump is my best option for heating my 5x3m conservatory. I'm posting here because there are so many options at such a range of prices that I'm struggling ordering. I'd appreciate an actual recommendation if anyone can make a...

Hi Stem, Thanks for your reply! 1. Back plate is certainly Earthed. 2. I have indeed used that wire but that is sadly was what the original installers in 1986 had used and I'm not removing it from the wall and my tiling to change it! 3. It has a gromit but no, I'll give you that, no grip...

Hi guys, I fitted a nest a while back and after quite a bit of use, I'm well impressed with it. It's a long review and install but thought some people thinking of fitting one would find it useful. Thanks a lot to everyone on this forum as it was only reading various posts that helped me fit this.

Evening, Our home has a nice sized garden which wraps around the side of our house. I would like to put up a conservatory on the side of our house which in terms of size and structure should comply under permitted development. However, this would require a new door being knocked through to gain...

Well that solves that. I'm not connecting to mains so I don't need to concern myself with that. So.... If I fitted a good looking sink and tap, is there any way of using a pump to pump water through the tap from a storage container below to simply drain into a waste below next to it. Empty the...

Haha... Thanks. I like putting the music in but each to there own.

How would you put a sink in the garden office business?

Hi guys, I don't post on here as often as I should but I thought some of you would like to see a quick view of my metal working workshop. I mainly make clocks and small bits. The video style may not be to everyone's taste, I think I tried too hard. Hopefully you like the shop...

Damn , you guessed.

Aquaheat - you suggested a drinking dispenser but in my original message I mentioned dirty water so clearly you haven't read it!! I've already said I need a tap and I won't be using much water. Water won't be particularly dirty (no food stuff and no solids). Drinking, hand rinse and water for...

Hi guys, a lot to think about. Firstly, I wasn't aware that running water to it immediately made it a job for building regs so in which case, that's a no go. Is that just for drains or would it be the case if I just ran water in (and pumped out to drains as has been suggested?) It is for...

Yes, exactly and why in my opinion it becomes a bigger job! The kitchen would be the nearest point and the easiest point to tap into for water. The drains are in the identical location.

Hi guys, I'm about to buy an outdoor office for my wife so she can do her hobby in that in peace. It's very impressive, electrics already in and just needs an electrician to wire up to the fuse box, lights in... Pretty much ready to go. However, we do feel she will need water and a sink. She...

Yes. Seen these during my research. I admit, their starter pack isn't the best price...
