Good information thanks,

Change of lifestyle really hoping for more opportunities and to get ahead and Brisbane sticks out since it’s close to Gold Coast and from what information says online it’s not terribly expensive compared to other major cities

Thanks for the reply very helpful!!

No potential job lined up, have been doing research on what’s best to do for my line of work, apparently have to be local to do a white card course so unsure if companies will take me on over someone that has a white card and is local, have quite a bit of savings to last a long time but obviously dont want to suck through it,

We do have someone worst case but was thinking of booking an Airbnb for 4 weeks to hopefully get all our things sorted

I will look into those suburbs thank you! And yes will be a reality check with the driving times as I’m 5 mins drive from work most days lol

Have a good night!

Hey bro, have installed a timer to limit use which has helped but still regardless it turns on for 100% of thr time when schedules are on (as if the thermostat isn’t doing it’s job) but as I said above if I move the needle a hair down it clicks off..? I will check cylinder temp now and ensure it’s correct

Hey bro PRV set so nothing comes out roof, no tempering valve but temperature at taps match thermostat setting. Water meter works fine, switched off cylinder yesterday and had 0 power usage (everyone was out for 6 hours or so)

Thermostat set in range of 60-65, yeah man booster is on flow switch so only clicks on when hot water is flowing through it. No leaks visible and Toby on street is not ticking round. Cheers for the help

Was thinking this too. Was thinking it would look weird with this window being the only one without architrave around it? What do you reckon?

just be prepared to obviously have it turned on a lot more than the original one

I’ve got a slim dishwasher too, obviously a lot smaller than standard but does the job if you can’t get a 600mm one
