Hi Dave did moving the heat pump in to the shed work i havecthe same heat pump and same problem with the p7 error code was thinking of doing the same after watching your video 👍
Hi do it work when put heat pump in shed
As always a cracking waffle Davey The covers look like they will be decent its just storing the things that's the problem! Take the Poly Carb off your conservatory then put them back in the spring that should do it 👍
Another great video Davey 👍 Good idea on moving the ASHP into a warmer environment. Put a flap of plastic over the hole on the outside of the shed, so that when the ASHP isn't on, the flap closes. I've done that for my ASHP on my latest video. Hope you're well.
Nice 1 Davey, should give you half a chance with the ASHP👍 I've recently just put a frame around my pond and used Poly material, its lovely and toasty inside, don't half hold the heat well. and a bonus when the sun comes out as it alows the UV to pass through but also its free heat even when the sun isn't that intense. Ps, keep an eye out in the post👍😉
Rome wasn’t built in a day. You will get there. It’s a hard graft this koi keeping 😂😂
Cracking job on moving the ashp ar kid, yow’m doing a cracking job growing on the bekko 👍🏼😂. Mine ain’t being covered this year, they can slum it 👍🏼👌🏼
I’d say see it thru and finish the cover, you’ve come this far.
Hi davey, If it was be I would use polycarbonate sheets that what I have got on my pond my pond is 12ft long by 8ft wide by 4ft deep mate hope that helps you mate. Steve
Good to see you Dave. Glad the fish are all doing well for you too mate 👍
Daft question what auto feeder you using
AR BIN YA ME MON, have you thought of putting a batton about a foot up the fence and putting the tarpaulin off that going over the edge of the pond, doesn't even need to be a foot just enough for a fall. Good Luck ME MON 👍🙏💪
I like this idea mate
❤those grow on’s are stunning. I feel covering is the way to go bro Davey Boy.. keep that heat in.. save on the electricity and the koi will benefit bro❤ just my 2cents.. lol
I've never covered my pond's in the 37 year's of having them. Only had the filters water freeze up 2 or 3 times over the year's. The main pond has had ice on several time's but the fish have all been ok except for one year when I had 2 small tosi turn upside-down (still alive) . I'm not keen on covers as I like to see them to check and my pond's a funny shape so awkward.
Dave you got the wood to do it you might as well.will send black country boys round to help ya mate.
Woow Davey boy they have grown.. are u heating?bro
They are gorgeous mucka and the pool looks amazing
Cheers Mart , still a work in progress but slowly getting there . Hope your well matey , havent seen any of you for a while 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Nice one davey👏 it's good to have a day out with mates 😀 I do like the idea of a pick and mix.🙂🐟
Its normally rammed and the pick n mix is usually a case of waiting in the cue 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Hi Peter , thanks for watching , the Black Country Boys are a great bunch and real mates . The UV lights last quite some time , for example the one on the sleeper pond was 3 yrs old before i replaced it . 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@BlackCountryKoi thanks for getting back to me. And yes, it must be good to have a like-minded group

A great video as always Davey 👍 I don't miss cleaning my Jap Matting. Nice little Showa you purchased there. Hope you're well.
ai pine needles acidic 🤷♂️
Not enought tomake an issue here mate , they only shed every couple of yrs 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Ar Bin Ya Me Mon, are you sponsored by Alperex if not you should be 😂 always entertaining shag never a dull moment 👍💪🙏
Cor beat it for a saftey net ar kid , also great for treating slleping sickness along with salt 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@BlackCountryKoi some say they get amuned to treatments be interesting in knowing if there's any truth in it 🤔
Looking good mate.
Cheers Paul matey 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Morning davey 👍 Seeing inside the filter has given me a few ideas, so I think I will build my own filter 🤔 CHEERS for that, my friend 👏🐟
No probs Gary , if uou need anything else gis a shout buddy 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You should have jet washed the matting as you had used pp and killed the bacterior ya twat 😊
6 months of leaving that crud in there? And youve been having issues with parasites all summer? 🤔
Hi Bobby , this isnt really what you would class as crud in my opinion , its moredead bacteria shedded from the moving bed . If the jap matting wasnt there this would all be stlling in the pond , so it makes sense to catch it before it entersthe pond. Also i know of jap matting filters that havent been deep cleaned for years with no ill effects , cant see this having an effect on the issues with parasites either buddy 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@BlackCountryKoi each to their own I suppose. Me personally I wouldnt leave it that long to build up that much
Yet there are people on YT with absolutely spotless set ups and drums that have had just as many issues 🤔. Not sure how you've got to that correlation to be honest.
@andreashessler838 the cleaner i keep my set up the less issues I have. I.e no detritus lingering anywhere degrading the water. Or I'm just really lucky. Funny that
@@bobbyknox9258 Water degradation and parasites are two separate issues. I would suggest that parasites do better in water with better parameters. That makes sense, no? It's stress that let's parasites get a foothold with koi, which is why they're worse when the water temperature is changing.
Great to see you Dave. Glad all is well, and your heat pump is doing the job. Can I just ask, do the tamasabas prefer to eat lower down with sinking pellets rather than at the surface ?
They will eat wherever they can mate , the are like hoovers. Saying that they do like to grub around on the bottom a lot Les. 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@BlackCountryKoi Thanks Dave, just getting some knowledge before I order some from Glyn next year, after I've made my pond larger for those ' rugby balls " 😃
Always good to have a good filter deep clean… 🧽 🧽 Nice Showa… 🐟 👍🏼
I agree Andy , just not too often . Cheers buddy 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you, Dave. Your shoutout to my channel in your video means a lot to me; it's truly heartwarming. I am from Runcorn, just about 12 miles from Liverpool. Today, I began working on my new roof, but things haven't progressed as planned. The job is more extensive than anticipated, but I hope to release a video about it soon. Once again, thank you, and take care. - Paul
Your very Welcome Paul , roof is looking sweet matey 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@BlackCountryKoiThank you
Cracking update mucca, nice little mod on the drip tray, and a nice new Showa, even tho I dow like Showa 😂👍🏼👌🏼
