Hi,

Attached are some pics of my very recent DIY installation of a Navitron 30 tube panel. 



Almost all done single handed, lifting the manifold onto the roof needed an extra pair of hands.

Installation was a dream - about 3 days, although we had the twin coil tank fitted a few years back, so that didn't need re-doing



and I did have quite a clean, tidy and light attic to work in

Hello

Just out of curiosity is that an unvented cylinder?

But as and when our old wind back meter is replaced, it looks quite a challenge to use that amount of power in the day
