Hi Stephen

thank you very much. Unvortunately I do not have that frequency, because of the job during the day time

Yeah, I've done a considerable amount of "outreach" to random visitors to my house too.

Only thing is, if the sun's shining, I don't need the heating fixed ...

Hi Mark

thank you very much. Yes we had a little go through all sorts of configuration. Also had a try of new old equipment and the CaK filters from china. I'm still stacking and will report on the results

Hi Derek

thank you very much. No it was not working for a whole week when we had snow, but now, as spring is here, it works again ;)

Hi Alexandra

thank you very much. I'm sorry for the problems with the central heating. I hope for you that the sun can replace it at the moment
