About this blog

This is a short blog about the thinking process, installation and results of a combined ASHP, MVHR, PV, EV charging and Water heating coil system being installed in a bungalow with good insulation and air tightness.

 

Be warned! The theory, installation and results assumed may not be right and I will only be sure when the job is completed.

 

Should you have any questions about this PM me and I will try to include an answer in the blog.

 

Good luck with your home

Bungalow air tightness

Air tightness was followed to a reasonable standard:   All external walls sealed with plastic before the electric first fix   Plasterboard ceiling to almost floor and then siliconed / masticed to floor.   No open fireplaces, cat flaps or tricklevent.

Bungalow history

The bungalow was built in the 1970's and extensively renovated in the last 4 years.   It has external block walls and timber suspended floor, timber frame including all internal walls and concrete tiled roof running east/west at a rise of 23 degrees.   Having never heard of, or gained knowledge from, buildhub I renovated and extended the bungalow as best as I knew. The garage was converted and has a flat roof. Fortunately the work included insulation, air tightness and a MVHR
