Cost of installing an electric water heater

A model of a comprehensive and comprehensible explanation. Thank you. I now have it all crammed into what little grey cells are still taking input.

Where can be found a calendar of more than today’s and tomorrow’s 3 colours schedule? I have the EDF & Moi app. Haven’t seen it there nor on my pages on the website.

There isn’t one, but all the red and white days have been used, so it’s all blue until at least the beginning of September (or November for red days)

Just Google EDF tempo and you will get this page, which tells you pretty well everything


And you can go back and look at past months (and years, even).

And it’s the same every year?

I see that they don’t give a colour for Tues 30/04 and the forward arrow for May doesn’t advance the calendar.

What are they trying to hide ? :thinking:

I give up :zipper_mouth_face:, anyone else who doesn’t understand tempo colour days?

Captain, they aren’t hiding anything :rofl: ALL the days are blue now until the autumn!

I find this site to be the best source of warnings for Tempo colour. They always know ahead of the official line from EDF.

All the other parameters & history are on that site too.

Thanks to all SFistas for helping me with this, esp Badger who has brought the tablets down from the mountain top. Talking of steep slopes …

Turning to our resident experts with concrete, what do I do about this?




Looks like the bottom has dropped out of the front of this workshop’s floor so it is now 'a floor of two ‘arves, Brian.’

One of the problems of living on a cliff. Gravity, which never sleeps, is trying to send everything tumbling down … I’d rather it didn’t tumble into the lane.

If it wasn’t for those panels being cement/amiante I could just pull it down but the dechet refused to allow me to drop even half of one into the hardcore skip.

There is a bit of a bulge in the wall looking at the drain pipe. The floor meanwhile, what’s your plan?

Ummm… :thinking: I have no idea.

My Brit neighbour who very kindly made this for €130 … [materials/fabricate/instal] . Fitted yesterday so to be painted

… said I could ‘jack up’ the front of the building and bung blocks under. Not sure about that. I have sent pix to a friend who is a civil engineer specialising in concrete constructions - foundations of wind turbines in his case. He might have a suggestion.

The civ eng has just replied "Not too good … " Fancy that … :roll_eyes:

It depends if it gets any worse. I could do a ‘chapuza’ [Spanish for a bodge but a bodge with a good outcome], fill the crack, build up the floor at the low end/front and lay a Sterling board floor on mini joists.

As for the bulge … I think the Mairie might step in if it started to look like it was going to fall down. No cracks a.t.mo.

50m before my house is this new wall. The council removed the original wall along this stretch [it goes on another 10m behind the camera], which was aligned on the outside corner of the notch behind the post and set the new wall back, to widen the lane.

There are companies that inject foam under pavements and aircraft runways also raising corners of buildings. Dont know if they exist in France.
