11.6 deg low overnight outdoors

Top floor
19.7

Lower floor
18.5

2.1 degs loss across 11 hours O.19 deg loss per hour. I've not mirrored the times from the previous samples as I was wiped out and sleeping well before 21.30hrs. :lol:

They are returning to fit thumb locks on 3 doors this morning so house won't be wide open of door all day. I'll try and stay up late tonight and grab the 21.30hrs readings.

7 days since I turned the air heating off. It's just doing it's own thing. :praise: :)

Condensation on the outer panes.

Looking good Joe!

Those huge monoliths really do let a lot of light in. Makes the room feel more spacious too I’d wager…
12x 340W JA Solar panels (4.08kWp)
3x 380W JA Solar panels (1.14kWp)
6x 2.4kWh Pylontech batteries (14.4kWh)
LuxPower inverter/charger

(Artist formally known as ******, well it should be obvious enough to those for whom such things are important.)

Cheers, the big units have skewed the perspective. The former big door set and light above it have now shrunk to a normal size. Once I've finished painting, cleaned everything and resited furniture I'll appreciate it more.

I'll be honest, I'm knackered in a way I've not been for a long time. Makes me realise that it isn't just a money drain scenario. It saps the self too. :surrender:

I can totally empathise that this process has been physically and emotionally draining for you!

Give it a year-or-two and your memory of inconvenience will fade but you'll feel the benefits every day!

Have you paid their invoice yet?

Off my own back I gave them an interim payment today. Enough held back to offset anything unbecoming and leave me a profit. :twisted:

The replacement glass for the replacement glass for a smashed glass has been ordered. I'll get a text message when it's in and we can be done (maybe). :twisted:

The rooms painted so it's all over bar the shouting. :D

Nah, carpets not straight :hysteria:


Open a cold one and marvel what you both have achieved.

Looks sooo much better than the previous frames, has modernised the look of the room and, almost forgot, you’ve improved your overall thermal envelope.

Good job guys :praise:

It’s never easy living through any form of ‘upgrade’ that disrupts the norm.

As others have said, you’ll get a few months in and forgot the bo11ocks.

And when you get to winter :)
