	RE: BUS Grant: removal of all other fossil fuel heat sources By Transparent, 6 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@rikiarn - just have a think as to how much it will cost you to keep that gas fire available as a backup heat source. We don't know whether you use gas or electricity for cooking,but the ongoing Daily...
	RE: Cost to have Gas removed By Transparent, 6 days ago Forum Your Home
	Don't do much digging around.That's best left to the professionals 😉 The rules on dormant gas pipes are varied, and depend on many factors. In the majority of cases the pipe itself isn't rem...

	Hi all, I was wondering if anyone had an idea of how the control of DHW works on the Ideal pre-plumbed cylinder (I also have a Halo Thermostat). I think I've located the correct setting in the instal...

	@quakerquaker As I have mentioned before, I have a first class degree in Scroogenomics and, as such very much resented the standing charge for a gas meter I didn’t use. To clarify a little, the remova...

	RE: Compute heat loss from energy used By marcinwloch69@gmail.com, 6 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)

	RE: Cost to have Gas removed By QuakerQuaker, 6 days ago Forum Your Home
	We are in a similar situation with ASHP installed a couple of months ago (by 21 degrees) and now trying to get our supplier (Octopus) to disconnect. Have to say they have been not good so far. They ha...
	RE: Is a Valliant Inline 6kW heater a BUS buster? By JamesPa, 6 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)

	RE: Is a Valliant Inline 6kW heater a BUS buster? By GuydeB, 6 days ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	awesome @jamespa - great advice - keep it simple. And yes the cylinder IS unvented and I agree, can't bear to just chuck away. The PHE call is genius. I will let the forum know how we get on with the ...
