Just how much cheaper us the resident tarrif compared to non resident? I just divided my bill (over two months) by my usage, and arrived at just under 28 cents per kwh.How would that change if I became resident?

(Re Woodburners )Are CO detectors widely available and mandatory as in the UK? I reckon we all should have them. Not seen them locally.

Providing you are not on a motorway, with a tow bar rather than a tow rope I'can't see any problems, i've seen towed vehicles around our neck of the woods.
Thanks for that, I prefer the British spade!
The flue works just fine but the new insert fire makes the mantlepiece very hot, I think I'll need to drop it down another 4 inches. We'll see...
No gas boiler in our 'house' but the colour coding leaves me confused from time to time, next job insulating the kitchen ceiling and installing lights and switches. The insulation we've put in so far has made an incredible difference to the cosy feel of our little love nest. Sadly the tufe used for the main construction is always going to create problems which we have tried to mask in many cases. Best option demolition and rebuild, but need a lottery win for that so muddle on...
I'm still alive and now moved on to installing an insert stove and increasing the height of the chimney above the kitchen. I used 150mm inox liner and it seems to work great but local plumbers said my tube is too small! Great advice and help from Giovanni Russo's big shop in Francavilla, best flue liner shop I've ever visited - a grotto d' Aladino if ever there was!!!
I woke up in the night sweating... and thought, live and earth connected together..sounds dangerous. So first thing next morning I changed it to neutral/earth together like I would in UK. Not sure why Enzo wired into the box as he did but my bit is as it should be. Fingers crosssed!
