@batalto, our DNO application with Scottish Power took six weeks.

SSE have blamed covid for the delay. They are aware we are waiting and hope to have someone come out to look "soon"
That's all I have!!
@batalto, that's very frustrating and Covid is beginning to wear a bit thin as an excuse. Western Power Distribution did ours all online in February, no visit required, in about 10 days.
I think you can get your GHG voucher extended if you ask.
@batalto, I have to say that the Covid excuse is wearing a bit thin, so I empathise. Hopefully it'll approved soon. Just hang in there.

They are coming tomorrow to do the load check - 6/7 weeks after the application. Once its done I can finally move forward
Finally got approval back from SSE - install should be in a couple of weeks. Just waiting on confirmed dates
Dates for install confirmed for the 29th and 30th of June
@batalto, that's exciting. Keep us posted.

Install is underway. Pump arrived fine, however they sent a hot water tank too wide to fit into the loft. Tank says 510mm on the box, but its 560mm when measured...
Hopefully be able to swap it easily - lets see.
@batalto, good luck. I hope it all goes ahead without any issues.

Good luck @batatlo. I’m sure all will go well. I had the opposite problem - they sent a slimmer, but taller tank. Ended up fitting fine. Luckily. As the original wider one would not have fitted 😳
Did you go with a Mixergy tank or one by the ASHP manufacturer?
Daikin Altherma 3H HT 12kWh ASHP with Mixergy h/w cylinder; 4kW solar PV with Solic 200 electric diverter; Honda e and new Hyundai Ioniq 5 N electric vehicles with Myenergi Zappi mk1 charger
