	RE: Indevolt Batteries UK Support & Info Thread By Batpred, 1 week ago Forum Energy Storage
	Just wondering what we currently think may be good options for battery plugin in the uk. Just a simple system with a ct clamp and looking for a low £/kwh.
	RE: How should the Boiler Upgrade Scheme be reformed? By Batpred, 1 week ago Forum Government Schemes, Regulations, Training, Planning & Organisations
	Ah, that makes sense when a combi is in place. The boiler is always more compact than a hot water cylinder. I underestimated how much pipework and expansion vessels added to the heatpump space require...
	RE: Replacing Storage Heaters with a Heat Pump in a Stone Cottage By Paul1098, 1 week ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@bobflux Thanks, that gives me something to check the inbuilt u values with. There looks like a lot more once you've found your way around it.
	RE: DIY Heat Pump Installations: Navigating Legal and Regulatory Hurdles By JamesPa, 1 week ago Forum Safety, Regulations, Tools, Plumbing & DIY Installations
	Without doing some research I can't immediately answer that question in planning law, but I would think it almost certain that the matter has been settled by one or more cases, albeit that case law co...
	RE: DIY Heat Pump Installations: Navigating Legal and Regulatory Hurdles By Transparent, 1 week ago Forum Safety, Regulations, Tools, Plumbing & DIY Installations
	So a farmhouse isn't "domestic premises"?Is that being defined because there is or isnt a boundary wall between the house and the agricultural buildings?Or because it may or may not have its own elect...
	RE: How should the Boiler Upgrade Scheme be reformed? By JamesPa, 1 week ago Forum Government Schemes, Regulations, Training, Planning & Organisations
	Political suicide given that the vast majority depend on gas for heating. Cue the pictures of frozen grannies on the front page of the Daily Fail (other sources of misinformation and propaganda are av...
	RE: DIY Heat Pump Installations: Navigating Legal and Regulatory Hurdles By JamesPa, 1 week ago Forum Safety, Regulations, Tools, Plumbing & DIY Installations
	Yes. The pd is for heat pumps on 'domestic premises'. The term curtilage is frequently used on planning law and, to the best of my knowledge, just means the property boundary.
	RE: DIY Heat Pump Installations: Navigating Legal and Regulatory Hurdles By Rob of York, 1 week ago Forum Safety, Regulations, Tools, Plumbing & DIY Installations
	Posted by @justin However, there are a couple of other things that should be considered: The system must be for heating purposes only.PD excludes systems that are capable of cooling - i.e. air-conditi...
	RE: DIY Heat Pump Installations: Navigating Legal and Regulatory Hurdles By Transparent, 1 week ago Forum Safety, Regulations, Tools, Plumbing & DIY Installations
	Noise nuisance was my first thought. All wind-turbines require noise specifications to be provided to the LPA when submitting the application. That's tricky because it's not just the blades and genera...
	RE: DIY Heat Pump Installations: Navigating Legal and Regulatory Hurdles By Rob of York, 1 week ago Forum Safety, Regulations, Tools, Plumbing & DIY Installations
	Posted by: @jamespa I suppose it could be a noise argument? That's right, you can have a wind turbine (subject to restrictions) as permitted development if you don't have an ASHP and vice-versa. Ins...
	RE: How should the Boiler Upgrade Scheme be reformed? By Rob of York, 1 week ago Forum Government Schemes, Regulations, Training, Planning & Organisations
	Posted by: @temperature_gradient I'd argue the core problem is that currently the 'Boiler Upgrade Scheme' doesn't do what it says on the tin, it can't simply upgrade your boiler with something cleane...
	RE: DIY Heat Pump Installations: Navigating Legal and Regulatory Hurdles By JamesPa, 1 week ago Forum Safety, Regulations, Tools, Plumbing & DIY Installations
	I'm guessing it's a visual amenity consideration. Don't forget that permitted development means no opportunity for the lpa to review/intervene so tends to be conservative. Personally I cant see that...
