We had a good 6 days over the last 3 years. Its turned parky though.![]()
All kidding aside, it does make ye appreciate those solar gain days when the whole house hits 23 or so. Just not this month.
The WBS though? Total Swiss army knife. It did the tumble dryer thing too today. We shut two door to make a 3 room snug and drove the temperature skyward. Absolutely blissful after a less than outstanding day.

Re: Slide towards Winter
Our hot tub has been drained down and off for a couple of years. We ran up a big batch of bologna sauce today and also a big pot of lamb veg broth. Both on WBS. Running it low & slow, very dry logs, very little smoke. More splitting tomorrow in prep for... Well next week probably!

SWMBO has been out & about in the EV quite a bit last few days. So that, coupled with non excellent weather has curtailed the resistive heating in house. Even at this size of PV net I have to prioritise (damn). In saying that, we've had hail as well as mucho rain so I'm still very glad to be as deep into self sufficient as we are. Just got to juggle when it's deep grey skies but it's getting it done.

I hope you get use of the pool soon.
P.S, still Zero Gas.

Re: Slide towards Winter
Gas Boiler service tomorrow, so will take the opportunity while access is clear to pipework to make the temp monitoring that was thrown in last year a bit more presentable.
