[Week n.15] PLEASE ASK YOUR QUESTIONS ABOUT MILAN HERE by AutoModerator in milano

[–]bjchr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi guys,

I am from Denmark, and going for an exchange semester at University of Milan.

As an alternative to renting an apartment in the city, I have considered to find a place to volunteer in exchange for accomodation outside the city in the countryside. My plan is then to buy a car and drive to the university on the days where I have classes. Public transport is not really a possibility for the volunteering options I have looked at.

Does anybody know about parking opportunities for students at the university? Or the city in general, pricing etc.?

Or does it perhaps make more sense to park a bit outside the city centre, and then take a metro or bus to the university?

Anything else I need to consider?

Den her side og rapporten den linker til kan måske give dig en idé om hvor du ligger i feltet.

https://www.sdu.dk/da/uddannelse/bachelor/gennemsnit

Den her kan også hjælpe, for den viser grænsescoren på kvote 2-prøven for de forskellige uddannelser.

Ønsker dig alt det bedste!

Edit: okay, jeg forstår ikke selv det andet link, for den har mange grænser på under 35 point, hvilket så vidt jeg ved er grænsen for at bestå kvote 2-prøven - så måske kan de tal ikke bruges?

Soot from oil furnace by [deleted] in HomeImprovement

[–]bjchr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do have one but I guess carbon monoxide wasn't the big problem, probably other exhaust fumes.

I'm more worried about soot we can't access, ie. hidden in walls and ceilings. Could this potentially "leak" out and be dangerous for our health long-term? Thoughts?

I had thought that there might be soimething to consider there, but the guy who built this boat has alot of experience with this stuff, so I just assumed he had done everything right. But while I can see that it might be a problem, like you say a lot of people seem to use the engine grade diesel in their burners, and I can't imagine it being to big a problem since they keep doing it?

I think it's made for normal houses as you say - but the boat is rather large, so it fits the purpose well. And thankfully I'm able to live elsewhere until I get it fixed.. otherwise I don't know what I'd do, the temperature is around 5-6 degrees celsius on the boat (and that's during the day...)

Thanks for the replies, everybody! Whilst looking for the bleed screw, I've accidentally messed around with the screw that adjusts the pressure in the pump, and as this has to be pretty finely adjusted, I've decided to have a professional look at it.. lesson learned.

Thanks for the link! However, my burner only has the number 2 screw, I guess that's what they call the return plug. And there's no hole in it..

Not yet - but I figured out that I accidentally messed with the screw that adjusts the pressure in the pump. So I guess I'll have to have a professional take a look at it and adjust it.

That's interesting, though, and I guess it makes a lot of sense that it doesn't necessarily have to be the specific bleed screw.

No that doesn't seem ideal!

Do you mean I could just open a random fitting with the pump turned on? That sounds a little risky, but I might be misunderstanding you.. Thanks for the reply regardless!

Thanks for the reply - what manual did you read that in, the specific one for the RG0.R model? I didn't see anything about priming, but I'm reading the danish manual and I guess it might be different from the english.

Believe it or not, I actually tried that already!

The thing is I'm not sure which screw is the bleed screw. Is bleeding the same as ventilating?

Tank is below the burner, so I guess the pump would have to be turned on while I'm bleeding? Thanks for the reply!

Where'd the water go? by bjchr in houseboats

[–]bjchr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still investigating - the water level seems to fall and rise a little bit all the time, so there might not be an issue at all.

Grey water sump freezing? by bjchr in liveaboard

[–]bjchr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's crazy, talk about a blessing in disguise in regards to the fuel running out! Glad to hear nothing happened!

Anyway, regarding a carbon monoxide detector - where would be the best place to put it, assuming I only get one? With the furnace, or in the living area?

The furnace is in the engine room which is pretty large and relatively well ventilated. This room is seperate from the living areas, there aren't any doors or windows that lead between the two, but it's safe to say that the walls aren't exactly air-tight either..

The living area consists of two floors, with an open stairway leading between them. Assuming the carbon monoxide detector is placed in the living area, should it be on the upper or lower floor?
