	RE: Help me keep the faith with my air source heat pump installation By AdamK, 3 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	UPDATE. theyve been and sorted the flexis today by moving them so they are vertical, about the only way they could do it without moving the heat pump, so that’s sorted. Also said they will send the sp...
	RE: Double or Triple Glazed Windows? By TRBob, 3 weeks ago Forum Insulation
	@toodles Glad to hear things are progressing well for you. I opted for Triple Glazing, they are Argon filled 4-12-4-12-4 Clear Softcoat Triple Black Thermal. We still have some more to do as funds...
	RE: The Importance of Radiator Balancing for Efficient Heating: Introducing the Flow Regulating Valve By Grantmethestrength, 3 weeks ago Forum Thermostats, Volumisers, Buffer Tanks, TRVs, Pumps, Piping, Valves, Radiators & Controls
	I may need to adopt this technique lol!
	RE: The Importance of Radiator Balancing for Efficient Heating: Introducing the Flow Regulating Valve By JamesPa, 3 weeks ago Forum Thermostats, Volumisers, Buffer Tanks, TRVs, Pumps, Piping, Valves, Radiators & Controls
	My understanding (someone may correct me) it that it is this, but not a specific DT for the reasons outlined above. Alternatively its getting the same flow rate. In a system where the radiators are p...
	RE: 300 Liter Tank - Do I have to heat it all? By JamesPa, 3 weeks ago Forum Domestic Hot Water & Cylinders
	I agree with @morgan. You can turn down the target tank temperature so you aren't diluting the water when it comes out of the tap/shower. 40C is probably about the lowest you can go and so a good st...
	RE: The Importance of Radiator Balancing for Efficient Heating: Introducing the Flow Regulating Valve By Grantmethestrength, 3 weeks ago Forum Thermostats, Volumisers, Buffer Tanks, TRVs, Pumps, Piping, Valves, Radiators & Controls
	@jamespa You are right I must have cranked them down too much. I am struggling to get my noodle around what balancing is I thought it was getting the DT the same on each radiator so I am obvs not gras...
	RE: The Importance of Radiator Balancing for Efficient Heating: Introducing the Flow Regulating Valve By JamesPa, 3 weeks ago Forum Thermostats, Volumisers, Buffer Tanks, TRVs, Pumps, Piping, Valves, Radiators & Controls
	@grantmethestrength There are a couple of subtle points to make here which might explain the noise you experienced: 1: did you ensure that, when you balanced them, the LSV on at least one radiator ...
	RE: Help me keep the faith with my air source heat pump installation By JamesPa, 3 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Then that is what you should ask for. As I say above Im neither condoning nor defending having only an MCB not a type B RCD plus an MCB (or an RCBO), merely stating that, to the best of my knowledge ...
	RE: Help me keep the faith with my air source heat pump installation By Mars, 3 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	That’s an excellent question, and one I would ask Vaillant immediately and get a reply in writing, highlighting the install was from a Vaillant-accredited installer. That gives you an instant reply on...
	RE: The Importance of Radiator Balancing for Efficient Heating: Introducing the Flow Regulating Valve By Mars, 3 weeks ago Forum Thermostats, Volumisers, Buffer Tanks, TRVs, Pumps, Piping, Valves, Radiators & Controls
	@grantmethestrength, the podcast episode you mentioned (link below for others) was one of the most interesting and eye-opening we’ve done. It was a real lightbulb moment in understanding how much effi...
	RE: 300 Liter Tank - Do I have to heat it all? By Morgan, 3 weeks ago Forum Domestic Hot Water & Cylinders
	You will only heat the full 300L from Stone Cold. Thereafter, you will be topping up and heating what you use. If the DHW tank is well insulated, I would personally leave it as is. This, however, is ...
	RE: Help me keep the faith with my air source heat pump installation By AdamK, 3 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@jamespa i just want it right at the end of the day, the fact that both whoever installed the test rigs at the college where i work and Vaillant both have used the correct kit says my installer is eit...
