Hi!! I am from your United Kingdom audience. I am setting up a darkroom at the moment and I am very close to have everything up and running (no pun intended). I have not been developing and/or printing for about 15 years now. Nevertheless, I have a many years of experience in both b&w and colour process at the time. That was when I was living and working in Sweden where things works a bit different, especially plumbing and hot water supply. One of the last things I need to instal in my current/new darkroom is a water heater + plumbing. I do have the main water supply (cold) going into the darkroom so I can easily connect to this. However, I am not confident what type of water heater I need, except it has to be powered by electricity as we do not have gas supply. In a nutshell, I wonder how many gallons/litres of hot/warm water a suitable water heater needs to produce for both b&w and colour film and print (RC and FB) process. I am skilled enough to do the handy work but have no knowledge regarding the capacity needed by the water heater. Many thanks in advance and I do apologies for this long text. I am looking forward hearing back from you. Kindly, Lowe H Seger
Hello, Lowe! I am not the gentleman who posted this video. I just wanted to say that to the best I can see, he has not posted anything new in about two years. I am not on Facebook, but if you are, maybe you can look for him there. I think you might have better luck asking some other darkroom enthusiasts who have posted videos only recently. Good luck with it, and I hope you have fun in the darkroom once again.
Great video! Gave me some ideas for my new darkroom.
very inspirational
