Which electric solar filling pump are you guys using , or which one to avoid
Anyone bought a positive displacement pump and made there own
 
I've got the intaeco solarfil its good but on some repair/service jobs i've been to with the pump station in the roof the hoses could do with being longer and its not the lightest to lift into roof!

Its on my list to get some longer hoses

We have just made a manual fill pump for topping up glycol in heating systems in holiday homes for about £30, converted something like this http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/images/B002Y5LEXG/ref=dp_image_0?ie=UTF8&n=11052681&s=kitchen with a 10-15 reducing olives and an isolating valve

Unvented Cylinder Single coil heat pump vs twin coil solar
Hi, I'm looking to purchase a 300L unvented indirect cylinder to work with a standard heat only boiler. I may have solar panels in the future, but likely the PV kind rather than the thermal kind, and won't be having heat pump in the future. So the cylinder would be connected to the boiler at...
