A few pictures of where we are at the moment - Need to tidy up those battery wires and ethernets (they are way too long)
Very tidy Midea installation

Guys came back today to finish off the lagging and tidy up a few areas. Changed out the expansion tank from 18l to 25l. Not really a lot else to see except the services cupboard with all the meters and what not
Boiler cupboard (boiler doesn't work anymore!) - quite messy with old and new pipework. Anything unlagged is old (I assume?!)
Looks good. Why did you keep the boiler?

Just left it for the time being. I'll probably get rid next year after we've had the winter. It's all disconnected and just a lump on the wall for the moment
Solic now replaced - all working and diverting now. A bit of extra free energy for the tank
Next step - RHI application has been placed. Awaiting the process
Still awaiting contact by JL Phillips to arrange to carry out the full technical survey having accepted their quote.
Retrofitted 11.2kw Mitsubishi Ecodan to new radiators commissioned November 2021.
14 x 500w Monocrystalline solar panels.
2 ESS Smile G3 10.1 batteries.
