[QUOTE="solar-forum, post: 531678, member: 35294"] HI all Rather than start a new thread I thought I would add to this because it is a follow up to my earlier experience of a new installation. If the moderators think I should post elsewhere I am happy to do so. Following the discovery that I was pumping out over half what I am generating I decided that we should have had a PVA diverter (solic 200 or similar) added to our installation. So I contacted our installer for a quote to retrofit one (they cost about £200-250 depending on supplier). He has responded in the terms below. The price quoted seems steep to me so I'd welcome a santy check from others here with more eperience than I. "This Solic installation is not quite straight forward as the hw circuit would need to be extended from the CU location in your kitchen to the incoming main switch position to enable accurate CT measurement. With our present work and labour schedules it is about 8 weeks before we can attend to fit this unit and our price would be £780." Thanks a lot [/QUOTE]
