To summarise where things stand. The external insulation is totally inadequate and should be completely replaced and I will contact the installers to demand that they do this using the guidelines prov... | ||

@bontwoody Maybe one for @editor to consider whether a second hand battery shop on the forum might be worth it! Jokes apart, totally with you on the financial viability aspect. We got lucky as Growatt... | ||

@pash4pump Ive looked at the photos and would comment as follows: The internal insulation seems better than the external, I can see a couple of untaped corners which should be redone but I doubt this... | ||
