  1. I have to connect my foul water drainage to the treatment plant. What do I need to put in place where the 2 pipes exit the foundations A + B : a) to satisfy building regs b) ease of access. Can I just join A and B and then a single pipe to the treatment plant or should I take both pipes to a point near the treatment plant? Thanks
  2. About to install Graf one2clean treatment plant, 5person 3750 litres. Looking for recommendations re concreting base, how much concrete? Fairly high water table, don't want it to float out.
  3. Thanks to you all for your advice and ideas. We have OPP. just trying to finalise plans before submitting Reserved Matters. Floor area should be about 100 m2 Like the idea of Durisol. Had already thought of a partially vaulted ceiling so will definitely look at that. Previous house had ASHP, worked really well but understand very expensive to install with very long term returns. No gas, Have considered that with South facing aspect for solar gain and very well insulated ,put in a woodburner and night storage heaters on economy 7???? Taking on advice about insulation and warm roof. Why 400 centres on roof trusses, is that just the weight?
  4. Insane time to start new build!! I’m fairly elderly but have some experience of project managing a build before. Rural location Welsh/English border. Very tight budget, Basic idea as follows: 1. Single storey 2 bed, open plan kitchen & living room. 2.Trench fill foundations, Beam and block floor. 3. Celcon block + block construction with 150 mm xtratherm cavity insulation. 4. Larch timber cladding. 5. Roof trusses with slate roof, cold roof, lots of insulation. 6. Possible AHSP and PV Did initially think of TF but price now is exorbitant. Any thoughts and ideas much appreciated. I am so glad I found this site as it has already been so helpful.
