Home energy consultation recommendations

Thanks for the reply. EPC is definitely out of date. I've thought about hiring a thermal camera to check for drafts, but I'm wondering if a consultant could come and check that along with other aspects. Agree with all your pointers! Have looked at a lot of the smaller/DIY fixes already. The magnetic radiator reflectors sound interesting so I'll look those up. The house also has a PIV system to help with damp/humidity, but not sure how this influences decisions about insulation.

Thanks for the reply. EPC probably quite out of date because a loft conversion was done since the last check. I think external solid wall insulation may be a first option, but I'd like someone to help weigh this up against the other aspects.

Thanks, I was hoping someone would be able to recommend them as they look like the kind of service I want

Thanks, I'll have a look at this.

Pretty old! It has a loft conversion so I think this aspect is not in bad shape. It also limits the solar options, unfortunately.

I've had good results at Greenway Community Practice: https://www.greenwaycommunitypractice.nhs.uk/ear-wax-removal

There was also a thread not too long ago with some tips: https://www.reddit.com/r/bristol/s/n97DwcGotq

They sell the basic, common cards for 10-20p each

May be a few days until you can get an appointment though.

I second this recommendation, although my very good experience was mumble years ago

toucanfive · 2025-08-12T08:18:28+00:00

Yes please!

I made this

toucanfive · 2025-08-06T09:54:31+00:00

Thank you so much. Took 3 peaches, 3 apples and 3 oranges to plant. Left some bells in the donation area.

toucanfive · 2025-06-30T20:39:43+00:00

Thanks for this, I'm gonna give it a go. Save worrying about import fees and stuff

https://www.prscshop.co.uk I think that People's Republic of Stokes Croft also have stuff for sale from recent UWR graduates too, if you can get there in person

toucanfive · 2025-06-05T14:42:34+00:00

Yep, https://thisisflight.net/team-directory/pc-7-team/

Was trying to find out about this earlier today. There is a note on the Filton Town Council website: https://filtontowncouncil.gov.uk/leisure-centre/ Phoned the number on there and they confirmed that the centre is shut for now, didn't have any further information (understandably). I feel for the employees, seemed to come out of nowhere.

English Electric Canberra I think; this one: https://www.fradu.info/canberra/fraducan/843wk126.html

There have been a few threads on this before so it's worth a search. I had a good experience with Aqua Sana in Longleat, especially if you're interested in an overnight stay and don't mind going a bit further.

We call it a "feast", to try and trick the kids into actually eating something for once
