United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

I just had one installed in Canada during that -30C > -50C cold snap on the prairies. I paired it up with a backup LNG furnace for the coldest of cold snaps we get. It’s only been a couple of weeks but it has not warmed up enough for the pump to kick over. I plan to keep detailed notes this year to compare data.
A lot of the people I know and work with think these things are a fad/gimmick/wont work in Canada… I aim to prove them wrong!
-50C !!! When did that happen?
Here is a comment with a picture of my weather app from that weekend.

A couple of weeks ago on a Saturday. The actual outside temp was -50 overnight but “feels like” -60.
I'm curious about a similar setup, but want resistive electric heat instead of a gas furnace so that I could completely eliminate the gas bill since you pay fees wether you use gas or not.
