It’s a weird one.
Did you look at the comm switch and was there any sign of arcing/burning as apart from the obvious that’s all I can think on.

I think the problem with air source heat pumps is that everyone and their dog is on that case, pretty much all the heating companies are into it whether rebranded or not. It just means there’s a lot of competition and I suspect a lot will be coming out of China at stupid prices.
As to hot fill, yeah, limited. Given that most modern homes won’t even have a hot pipe to the appliances, probably for the past 20 years or more, it’s not of much use to a lot of people.

You know, it’s been really quiet of late in general, ever since Covid really but DAG I’d heard nothing about until the other day when it was mentioned and I did a bit of looking.
Does anyone have any clue what’s going on with DAG?
The scuttlebutt is that the whole Hotpoint/Indesit/Whirlpool thing has fallen by the wayside, quelle surprise, nobody saw that one coming eh? But now I am led to believe that things are a bit messy.
Some say that we are all prophets of doom, doom-mongers, we’ve nothing positive to say, etc, but I tend to think that, as often as not, we’re right. 😉

Now I had a minute to look at this, there’s not much info out there as you’d expect but I stumbled across this:

Interesting as we went a totally different route.
Rapport was designed to sit in the cloud and be used anywhere on pretty much any Internet-capable device, so it could be used in the field and interact with just about any other system, hence the name. And designed from the outset so that a sole trader could use it, the notion being that if you were a sole trader with no office support you had to be able to take and log calls on a mobile device but scaleable so as it could be used by multiple call handling staff and so forth as well.
K.
No problem to me if you want to talk about largely anything.
Rapport doesn’t have a free thing any longer, we had to halt that as it was too expensive to maintain frankly but you could ask Sudeep about it as I think he may well have a demo setup somewhere.
But there are a few of the guys that use it and every one that does won’t part with it, I think that kinda says a lot. 😉
K.
Yes but there’s really not a lot of specific guidance that I can give you as mostly all we have and have to work from is a blowout like the attached.

The hardest parts are diagnosis and getting to the parts, actually swapping them is pretty simple stuff.

I get what you mean and are thinking but, in operation, it’s still got to push the same volume and weight as it’ll be full then.

Yup, that much hose it’s got at least a litre or water to try to shift before it gets anything moving. Then add gravity it has to fight.
That could be a problem and why I never recommend joined long hoses as a number of them just can’t deal with it.

New one on me, I’ll need to read the directive to see what Miele are on about as on a quick look I can’t see anything specific. In fact, I can’t see anything specifically mentioning the “safe use” of washing machines anywhere in the EU or UK notes on it.
Could be Miele BS’ing people, again to try to get them to fork out on more expensive products than they need to. Which would come as absolutely no surprise to me.
But, another example of Brexit madness:
Yeah, we left, but we’ll still follow all the rules.
