I can't get my head around 'thin metal sheets are installed behind the plaster in the walls'
does this mean that you have to replaster to install this wallpaper....the article mentions this 'behind the walls' more than once.

Erm and what happens to WiFi and phone signals...
Philosophers have only interpreted the world - the point, however, is to change it. No it isn't ... maybe we should leave it alone for a while.

There are some (very basic) videos here;

I read somewhere that their 'mesh' is actually made from Graphene.

Interestingly a friend of mine, a sparky has been going around a number of nursing homes, installing infra panels above residents beds, only 400w, to replace the wet heating system with the nursing homes ripping out the gas boilers and radiators. Logic is only heat the bed not the whole room, which with infra heating you can do.

I hate that idea , it's like 'heat the person not the room '

A house heated to a reasonable temperature should be a cornerstone of a civilised society

I've just had my electricity statement and Octopus have credited me £200 for the governments alternative fuel payment. Presumably this is because I have oil heating.

So, any other regular heating oil users should expect a similar rebate.
