	RE: Solar Power Output – Let’s Compare Generation Figures By Majordennisbloodnok, 4 hours ago Forum Solar Photovoltaic (PV)
	Are you not concerned about high winds catching hold of panels and relocating them to a neighbour's garden, @toodles?
	RE: Solar Power Output – Let’s Compare Generation Figures By Toodles, 4 hours ago Forum Solar Photovoltaic (PV)
	@papahuhu I read the planning requirements very carefully and took advice. The wording refers to ‘Ground Mounted’ whereas my panels are resting on but not affixed to the ground. As such, I don’t compl...
	RE: Solar Power Output – Let’s Compare Generation Figures By Papahuhu, 4 hours ago Forum Solar Photovoltaic (PV)
	@toodles unfortunately our roof pitch is only 14 degrees (another reason winter solstice production is pants) so rain and wind isn’t enough to wash everything off. love the idea of ground mount, but...
	RE: Optimum new build house design for Heat Pump By JamesPa, 4 hours ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	From first principles I would say: Definitely design for a single low flow temperature, not different flow temperatures. Definitely calculate (to the extent possible) the heat transfer from dow...
	RE: Optimum new build house design for Heat Pump By Majordennisbloodnok, 4 hours ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Whilst I'm not the best person for advising on house design for efficient heating, one thing does spring to mind. If ever there is an ideal time to consider MVHR, it's at the house design stage, so do...
	Optimum new build house design for Heat Pump By MikeF, 5 hours ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	I have some friends who are in the enviable position of building a new house from scratch. They know i have a heat pump that works very efficiently in a new build Bungalow, and have asked what they sh...
	RE: Cascade 2x Grant Areona 10kw ASHP - Ongoing setup issues By JamesPa, 5 hours ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	This is actually normal, or at least its more or less what I see with my Vaillant and there is an obvious logical explanation. The heat pump has to work harder when its colder anyway, but harder stil...
	RE: Solar Power Output – Let’s Compare Generation Figures By Toodles, 5 hours ago Forum Solar Photovoltaic (PV)
	@papahuhu I am able to reach / access 12 of my 21 panels as 10 are ground mounted and 2 on a low roof; the rest have to make do with rainfall! Toodles.
	RE: Solar Power Output – Let’s Compare Generation Figures By Papahuhu, 5 hours ago Forum Solar Photovoltaic (PV)
	@toodles I guess it makes sense, ladders and water don’t mix well. Not sure that a water jet would be enough to get through the pigeon poop on mine though. I’m too mean to pay anyone to clean them.I ...
	RE: Radiator sizing sanity check By JamesPa, 5 hours ago Forum Thermostats, Volumisers, Buffer Tanks, TRVs, Pumps, Piping, Valves, Radiators & Controls
	Reducing radiator size is just plain madness in most cases, whatever the survey may say. You can always turn them down. Why on earth would you waste money unnecessarily? Based on what we hear from p...
	RE: Solar Power Output – Let’s Compare Generation Figures By Toodles, 5 hours ago Forum Solar Photovoltaic (PV)
	@papahuhu I’ve heard that some systems are beginning to use drones to clean panels - a water supply tube is fitted to the drone and I assume that water is then pumped up to the drone’s steerable nozzl...
	RE: Solar Power Output – Let’s Compare Generation Figures By Papahuhu, 6 hours ago Forum Solar Photovoltaic (PV)
	December is dire for us. 3/4 the way up a south facing hills the sun barely manages to get its nose over the peak. Had a look today and there’s half a larch trees worth of debris sitting on them too, ...
