  1. The overall size! Good point!
  2. I’m thinking of using the generator, not the inverter
  3. Hi all! Happy New Year! Which front loading washing machines are ideal with reliability on a narrowboat? I have a 2kw generator! Ta!
  4. The engine is Kubota V1305 Thanks for your reply and descriptions! Ok thanks! I’ll upload some photos! I do have pipes running off the water pump but thought of reconnecting to heat exchanger for hot water to heat calorifier quicker!
  5. The engine is Kubota V1305 Thanks for your reply and descriptions!
  6. Hi all! Problem has been fixed! A hole appeared in the hexagon (Allen key) through corrosion! Engineer told me that water had been gradually leaking then eventually poured out! By the way, I have a calorifier connected to water pump but would connection to the heat exchanger heat water more quickly or not make much difference? Ta!
  7. Ok thanks for your reply! I think maybe engineer will fit a blank cap without a hexagonal hole hole in it!
  8. Hi! Thanks for your replies! An engineer had a look and unbolted the cap with an Allen key where the water was draining and its just a cap with a hexagonal hole! So there must have been something attached to the hole? The hole is a hexagon in the cap shown here still bolted! What other fitting must there be? Ta! The smallish pipes are directed to a 75L calorifier although water does take a long time to heat up! A subject for another time perhaps!
  9. Hi! My heat exchanger on top of my engine is draining all of a sudden! What’s gone wrong? what spare part do I need to stop draining? is it ok to start engine without it? Ta!
  10. Ok, thanks for your replies!
  11. Can anyone explain why the canal frequently drains in Berkhamsted area? No water in Tring reservoir? Broken pumping station? Ta!
  12. A slight chuckle there! Nope, going to build a bed above it now!
  13. Ok, bed it is then! Now to make one! my holding tank is polypropylene
