It's in!! - 2008/02/19 02:41
Hi Guys,
Just a quick note to let you know that my Brivis HE20i and duct work is in and working just fine!
A couple of hiccups were encountered: 1. no hole in foundation wall where I thought there was one (and my hole balanced ducting plan relied on it). Nothing a bloody great hammer didn't fix....
2. Mismeasured the required height for the unit's platform... such that there was no fallaway for the drain. Had to re-position and get the gas fitter back.... a red-faced moment.... 
Otherwise, while squeezing and working under bearers with around 30cm clearances in some parts was a big job (for an IT specialist!) , I got there in the end! The unit was (re)connected to gas on the hottest day of december! And unfortunately, we've not really had a chance to crank it up in anger since, we have tested it breifly and it seems to work well.
A big thanks to the guys at Dynamic Heating and Cooling, for all their help and advice, and for offering a DIY solution.
Just a couple of things outstanding really: 1. For the Brivis warranty card, is it ok to list myself as the installer, or should I list DH&C? 2. The unit itself has a sticker on it saying it has anti-theft device fitted. Is this just a bluff, because I couldn't find anything about this in either the installer's or user's manual? (If it is a bluff, then I guess this section of my post should be removed!)
PS more than happy to write a testimonial about the excellent service I've received.
Cheers, Ben.
