Having recently bought a later model - which "typically" came with no instructions - and found only a professional-level manual online, I was really looking forward to this video. Sadly, it has so far proved beyond me. Heaven knows how the (wired) mouse works. Do any manufacturers nowadays realise that their customers are not trained experts?

Hi, great channel and excellent content, can i ask a question please.. I am about to have a 6.88kw system for an east facing array and have been told the 5kw GiveEnergy invertor will be too small? I notice you have an 8kw system and a 5kw invertor, are you happy with the choice ignoring the electric car issue? My anticipated yearly production is 5100 kw, so my thinking is over the course of a year the 5kw will be more efficient more of the time to offset the clipping that may occur in the peak months. There seem to be so much difference of views when speaking to installers, they are almost just leaving it up to me to choose :) Thanks

Hi. I have purchased one of the sinks secondhand, but it’s never been used.. not even a tap cut out. The overflow badge is missing. I can’t find the spare part anywhere. I am in Australia but I am looking Amazon everywhere. The version of the sink is where the overflow is on facing upwards. The only spare parts I can find for overflow is the versions where the overflow is inside the sink on the vertical wall. Any ideas? Thanks heaps Paul.

Im sure you can, let’s consider some factors as I sense an element of a narrow thought process: - what is that system for £4700 i.e brand? - What warranty does that system come with? - What protection and safety features does that come with? - How many optimisers does that system come with? - is that system dc coupled? By answering the above, it will help others understand why the pricing is so different. We also have to consider that I paid this 2 years ago, and panels have since, almost halved in price as far as I am aware, I imagine other equipment also may have reduced in price. I do thank you for your view and commentS, albeit very un-constructive to other viewers, but certainly helped reduce the cost burden of my very good and reasonably priced solar panel system 🙂

I hugely admire the planning, as well as the quality and quantity of work that went into this. But grass? You must really love mowing. And I notice you didn't mow the grass steps -- what's going to happen to those? Weren't there alternatives, not more hardscape, but something that isn't as much work as grass? Anyway, if you're going to have grass, kudos for growing it from seed (apparently) rather than using grass sod (I hope that word is ok with this meaning in the UK).

There is good information online on such sites as the ‘interactive planning permission’ website which gives guidance on when permission is required. In my instance this wasn’t required. Yes retaining walls should be calculated in my opinion to ensure the land it’s retaining is suitable.

Hi, Thankyou, yes this goes hard, I cant recall how long but want to say 12 hours. It arrives in a vacuum bag sealed, so it doesn’t set as its a resin type product. If you have some left over you can store it in water but if i remember correctly not for very long. Very good product, I clean my patio yearly and just done it for the fourth time and hardly any has come out. Id recommend pressing it into the gap.

I’m mid-way through redecorating my entire home, which has/had coving in every single room. My wife decided she wanted it all removed, then the walls plastered, then new coving put on. I assumed it would be a simple job but it’s turned out to be one of the biggest ball ache diy jobs I’ve ever done. As others have suggested, make sure you take time to prep, it pays dividends in the end. Stanley blade the top and bottom of the coving, use a sharp tool (I went with a wooden handled scraper which had a metal head) and hammer into the top and bottom all the way around, and for the large part, it will come off in long pieces. Good luck to anyone else undertaking this horrible job.

Not necessarily, yes the 3 star locks can be snapped, but the mechanism goes in to “lockdown” as such, and the thief’s are unable to unlock it, like they would a normal lock. It just means you would have to buy a new lock if it happened, but they wouldn’t get in with that method of break in.

Nothing at all wrong with this method if strong enough to lift that much. Never knew about those silicone seal things - very useful! No need to change olive if you are using the same fitting, should go back without a problem. If in doubt add a bit of joint compound on the interior edge (fitting side, not nut side) of the olive. Wont matter if you get joint compound on other bits, just doesn't do anything. Should note that its common to find valves that use an o-ring too which might need replacing. You have to look closely at the fitting before you take it apart - you will see the fitting shape and maybe absence of visible threads than on a compression fitting. Setting the lockshields/ balancing is to ensure all the radiators heat evenly, which can be a problem on branching systems but not so much on manifold which is often the method used with the 10mm plastic pipe. Bit untidy the way they did the connections behind the radiator. Usually better to do a single run with no extra joints and put a plate over the hole.

I cant remember exactly the forms, but we had to notify the DNO about the inverter being bigger than 3.78kwh (or whatever the limit is), then they can assess local infrastructure to see if it is suitable for anything bigger. I was advised, if it isn’t then the export would just need limiting.
