    Heatpumps

    LOL. The day we got it installed i was like oh shit the wife is going to beat me for this pump noise, now i hardly ever notice it anymore. EV isnt perfect but its a decent solution for the money spent. i think in 2 - 3 years that thing pays for its self.

    Heatpumps

    I suppose is also need to add we are only 2 people in the house. Hot water is mainly for shower / bathing / rinsing dishes. I use a dishwasher for all the dishes as it uses less water and i use it when there is excess solar power available. I also learned that 55c temp on the geyser is more...

    Heatpumps

    I live in Jozi and added an evacuated tube type solar geyser when i did my full solar system, i used 137kwh the entire winter in JHB. In summer from experience we rarely ever use Eskom for that. Its not perfect but for the price of 17k fully installed it means my house cost me about R1500...

    Rotel RMB 1095 - still worth buying considering the age?

    I forgot to also add you can most likely get away with a 3 channel model, small rear speakers are fine to run from even a entry level AVR.

    Rotel RMB 1095 - still worth buying considering the age?

    No bud it should work like Pappa mentioned just make sure there is pre outs. Video through the AVR audio into the Rotel amp it does most of the work. Those amps are tanks. i have had even older models that i eventually ended up selling because they didnt have triggers but they dont give up...

    Importance of Washing solar panels.

    Yell is quite correct with what he is saying above. Panels became so cheap that if you want lets say 500w extra an extra panel will be cheaper then any other form of tracker ''cooling'' eg. I have noticed thou on full sun winter days the panels love it.

    You are quite correct about cooler panels performing better. I will monitor it over the next week to see if that peak is still there.

    Importance of Washing solar panels.

    Importance of Washing solar panels.

    I cant see how the above can work unless its on daily. I washed mine before winter and hosing off alone removes the surface dust but that's it. I had to broom wash them all to get the stubborn dirt off. Think of it like having a dirty car, hosing alone does little.

    Importance of Washing solar panels.

    I live in Jozi, and we all know its been very dusty lately. I decided to wash my panels this weekend rinse with water soft bristle broom and rinse again. I have a 3300kw DC array and found after washing them on saturday i gained about 300w.

    Please be careful on marketplace!

    I will not go through the effort anymore of selling shit if its not on a forum like this to a company or people i know. Its too much effort to answer a million dumb questions or have to deal with skelms.
