Are the walls the same construction? May be a problem with them, rather than the paint i.e. damp and cold.

Calling all Solar experts - need help speccing battery

Yes. You spent some of it on knowing the difference between power and energy. Shame the rest of the comments have the two mixed up. If the difference was learnt, and understood. There would be no need to ask this question. It is not being picky about units. It is fundamental to the problem and answers the question. -
a new form of heat exchange equipment?

Between 15 and 60 ACH, anb the air leaving is not at 22⁰C like a house. Last night we were at a very pleasant 30⁰C. In a month, probably high 40s. -

I am always amazed how little fat there is in our extraction system. The baffles on the ranges seem to do their job, even though they seem very basic in design and are probably not really designed, more guessed at. We probably though away 40 MWh of energy a night though the extractor. -

It is always worth checking a products name. From now on I shall call it the kiddy findler. Le Pedo, my arse. -
If you bridge over the ground stump/root combo with a bit of rebarred concrete, that would support most things. I think it is what they used to do to cap mineshafts down here. Now they put a metal cage over them. Then send the dogs down. https://www.cornwalllive.com/news/cornwall-news/dogs-rescued-after-falling-porkellis-8123356.amp

ICF How much more expensive ?
SteamyTea replied to Dave Jones's topic in Insulated Concrete Formwork (ICF)
Every place I have ever lived in that had plastered solid walls, all had cracks in them. Some had bulging plaster. So I would not think the long term airtightness is going to be brilliant. But no need to worry, people will quote the ACH figures from the testing date.
