It's not a rant really, Mark raises some solid points as always. Custom Renewables are leading the way in the renewables installation world. It's easy to see why!

A podcast rebrand with some exciting news. Rich Burrows and myself are running our first event in September (18th & 19th) - more of that to come in good time.  A few weeks ago Rich invited myself and Alan Rothwell to Salford Energy House to help with an install. We can't say too much just yet. But more will follow.... In the mean time, we're off to ISH in Frankfurt. What content would you like to see from us? We'll have all the kit with us. 

Mark is back with an update on his very first heat pump install. What a beauty it is too. I've looked at the pics of his install many, many times on Instagram and said to myself, and others "look at this wonderful install!" It's a work of art utilising kit from Viessmann, OSO and IMI Hydronics. I highly recommend you have a look for yourself.

Today's guest is Nick Eastwood, the Technical Director of Secon Renewables. Nick really knows his stuff! If you're looking to learn more about renewables, be sure to check out their training courses. 

All the way from Sunny Scotland, it's the incredibly handsome, smart, humble hunk. B Sharp - that's great advice right there.    ENJOY!   I always learn so much from conversations with Barry, you probably will too.
