Pls house, have been reading about this bio-Digester soakaway... Pls what are the pros and cons? Would you recommend it against the conventional soakaway? I am yet to see any of you talk about it or even try it, or recommend it for your client. What do you all think about it? Can you recommend it? @next @Egunmogaji @spyder etc

multikolour:
I was at a store to buy my entrance door and I was shown two different doors base on my level.

1) turkey door for 140,000
2) Germany door for 130,000

But I asked the owner/seller what is the difference between the two but he could only say the country of origin.
Because he could not give a good reason I just transfer 50k to his account and left the shop to return when I get the difference between the two.
so house what is the difference between the turkey and the German door?
Thank you in advance

Yes. There is Allcopacetic, Topsy23, and Jaffos (Jaffos is not on NL, but my private cable guy). You can order, pay them because they are Agents and pickup from respective factory of Nigerchin (Ikeja) and Coleman (Mowe). This is done for authenticity , so as not to get fake cable.

Note: You get it cheaper from Agents than going directly to buy it at the factory. The Agents get more discounts.

michlins:
all of them are from China. My Igbo brothers just term it differently probably because of minor difference in price.


We all know that Germany isn't known for making doors and even if they do, expect their starting price to be above 500,000.

Okay thanks. I thought we had a factory direct source on here? Like you order from him and pick up from factory?

I’ll ask Hajj.

I shared this before in 2016:

COMPARISON: SEPTIC TANK SYSTEM vs BIOFIL® TOILET DIGESTER

Septic Tank: A large underground reservoir is needed to store waste from the flush toilet.

Biofil: The Biofil system is smaller to septic system and there is no need for reservoir for the same number of user

Septic Tank: Soil conditions (such as rocky and clayey soil or areas with high water tables) may make it difficult or inadvisable to excavate.

Biofil: The ground does not need to be excavated to be installed; it can be placed above the ground.

Septic Tank: The waste from the system when extracted requires further treatment before releasing into the environment.

Biofil: No further treatment is required, as the solid waste is rapidly decomposed.

Septic Tank: The waste decomposed under anaerobic condition, creating a semi-solid sludge. Harmful gases (methane and hydrogen sulphide) are also released.

Biofil: The biofil toilet operates under aerobic conditions as liquid waste is immediately filtered out. The only bye products of the system are water and carbon-dioxide.

Septic Tank: The reservoir may get filled up with waste and leak or overflows requiring its contents to pump out.

Biofil: It does not get full, leaks or overflows and there is no need to extract waste.

Septic Tank: An improperly designed or ill maintained septic tank system leads to pollution of the ground water

Biofil: The danger of ground water pollution is minimal, as all feces is removed from the biofil digester and waste water is discharged into the biologically- active layer of the soil (top soil).

Septic Tank: The septic system requires inspection chambers in addition to the tank, and the tank must be placed at the vantage point in order for the dumping truck to easily access it.

Biofil: There is never a need for evacuation of the biofil digester, it can be sited anywhere within the compound.

Septic Tank: A damaged or collapsed septic tank can affect the foundation of the building as it is normally sited closed to the main building.

Biofil: Biofil cost the same in the urban and rural setting whereas septic tank cost is location determined (waterlogged or dry land, hilly site or table flat etc)

Boss, can biofil serve a house with about 35-40 occupants?
They consume about 2,000 liters of water everyday.

KolaShangOne:


Can I get your suppliers contact? Let me see if he can save me some quid. Budget is tight now.

I delayed buying marine boards for 2 weeks and it has gone from 11,500 to 15,000.

Honestly, I don't get these everyday increases. Dollar has been stake for a while now. Why do prices still rise every blessed day!

Am available on nairaland today to answer any questions about paints

KolaShangOne:


Last time I picked up from the factory, it was through @topsy23 about 2 years ago.

Since then I use either him or Twinskenny.

Since the day I think I got fake at a popular store in Salvation road... I've had to stick to those I trust.

ceelog:


Okay...lemme ask you

Is there any thing like washable matte or satin paint?

I ask because it is said that silk reflects wall screed and it may show its mistakes.

n3xt:



This reminds me of what happened in 2011

It's not just silk but certain colours (eg. red silk) reveal imperfections. I'd never forget my arsenal fan client who asked for red silk on a renovated wall.

Everything was fine (the screeded wall; blue wall; magnolia wall, intense truffle wall etc) until the wall was painted RED satin. It's even far worse when you have red in a very small and narrow space. You'll feel like you're in hell.
