    Sunny Suffolk (UK)... 100% non DIY...!!!

    I'll be honest... probably my most expensive regret... We recently had a decent system boiler installed, replacing a jerry rigged to shit monstrosity the former owner had molested the absolute life out of... I wish I'd have done way more research into ASHP systems and planned this whole system...

    Sunny Suffolk (UK)... 100% non DIY...!!!

    It's all in... not a bloody clue what it's doing right now, and to be honest while I'm not let down I am left feeling like my excitement was a little bit too much... Obviously you don't want fireworks with this type of stuff... however there was no "tadah" moment... it all just quietly kind of...

    INSTALL DAY... They reckon it'll be smashed out in 1 day... Bit of a blow in that they've provided a wallbox car charger not the Zappi I specifically requested. Told them not to install it... but to run all the cables/ducting etc.

    Ha, you know solar requires sunlight...!!! ? I'm from Sunny Suffolk UK... and getting a system installed next week. Full disclosure, I'm not DIY'ing it as I'd kill myself and or burn down my house... I've been posting to myself about my install for months. Feel free to have a read and catch...

    Sunny Suffolk (UK)... 100% non DIY...!!!

    So there has been some developments... I've been constantly reaffirming my install date and checking with the POC I have "Jerome" about the installs capabilities, asking about potentially using the newer gen 2 Givenergy equipment etc... and while he has been reasonably responsive, I was told I...

    Has anyone else realized how far we are away from running civilization fully on wind and solar?

    Lol, its as if you think those in charge actually care... You think for a second our glorious leaders don't hold shares in big oil and gas... that they didn't just profit from collosal returns over the last reporting period...? That they are not right now enjoying making more money per barrel...

    Sunny Suffolk (UK)... 100% non DIY...!!!

    So after chatting with soooooooo many of this forums users, I was emboldened and took the plunge, ordering a system to be installed in Mid Sept. I'm having a new roof at the same time so it made sense to keep the scaffold up a little longer and bang up as many PV panels as I could squeeze on...

    Hi from sunny Suffolk...

    Hi all, New to the forum and solar (as are probably thousands of us right now...!) Going to be asking some questions about a potential solar set up and companies (not getting the fuzzies about one I am dealing with) and hopefully learn a bit more from those who have already trodden this path...
