Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

I’d love that right now

Sounds as though it’s still really hot over there.

Peterborough museum have some half term activities this week, so we took Hannah and Jessica (grandkids no 3 and 4) along. On the Halloween trail, came across an exhibit featuring my old school uniform, just the blazer, scarf and beret though @Barnfred 55, no undergarments. lol My Grammar schooldays being the stuff of nightmares Halloween trail seemed appropriate. No, the broomstick wasn’t my school transport, in case anyone was wondering. lol

GOT has reunited 2 old lads who played in the same team at the same school nearly 50 years ago tonight. How utterly brilliant is that??

Brilliant, who was it

Brilliant, who was it

Eggs was one of them. Can't remember what thread it was in now. The other guy was a new sign up.

Of course it wasn't H. We all know you travel by Longship ?

Awesome. That's so cool.

Sure he was showing as "free valuation" so just assumed he was new to the forum. My bad.

Good evening Fred how are you doing today.

You can have a ground source pump (a bore hole about 200ft in depth or in lines through the ground) or air source. The ground is better but costly.

Ours is 170metres deep so about three times that .

 

[blue1948]

Yes. It's the cost to pay for the air source pump, the manifold for the UFH and (if you have one) the immersion heater to booster the water temperature.

In theory, the cost to run should be a third or less of the equivalent cost of a gas boiler*, but electricity per KwH has raised significantly compared to gas.

My friend is a boiler fitter for BG, and they're pushing the training for installation due to the expected legislation, which'll mean they'll be mandatory on new builds.

But he said that in many cases it's currently more expensive to run one due to the difference in electricity vs gas, and they cost a minimum of £8,000 to fit.

When you put it into perspective, it's more energy efficient and green, yet not by much, and it'll cost you more to run it. A ground pump is much better...

... but you need the boreholes done or a large piece of land dug up to a depth of about 5ft or more.

*they are a minimum 33% more efficient of producing the same amount of heat.

You can if you are suitably situated run it in a lake .The sole aim is a place with a constant temperature and not freezing.
