@crimson good morning. Lots of people here want this one fixed for you! What's the approximate length of buried pipework on the primary circuit under ...
Hi @crimson, sure. The formula is the sensible heat equation, to work out how much heat energy in kJ/s is being added. 9 is your flow rate as indica...
