Nothing worse than someone trying to save money on their TV licence, and using your drive-thru to watch the end of Catchphrase! “Say what you see!” erm….. ”the ass end of next doors car”.

These are often OEM in heat pumps etc. Always confused me as to how the automatic air got released sideways when the mechanism relies on a float / gravity.

Yup, aka crude! At best.

Yes, lol 😂.

Where’s top of screed?

As for the neighbour, maybe some driving lessons or a trip to Specsavers? ffs!?!🤦‍♂️

They’re ‘stones’ not bricks. But first you need to rule out whether they’re stone cladding or solid stone. Any loose enough to remove? As far as a claim, you should ask for a stone mason or very good Bricky to say if these can be picked out whole, cleaned and reinstated. A new area will likely stick out like a sore thumb.

If it’s anything like a lighting design I’ve just seen, it’s a floor level up light.

Is the roof being converted too? If not, insulating the walls is pointless.

Henry hoovers are just bombproof.

Used these previously, from the same supplier who’s based in Poland iirc. Low loss header for a bit of volume, but primarily for hydraulic separation. https://culmstoreseltermltd.co.uk/en_GB/p/Low-Loss-Header-40kW%2C-1-insulated/221 Another, more compact solution, but the 25L version would give better results methinks. 50L better again if you’ve got room. For just the other £100 or so I’d go for this https://culmstoreseltermltd.co.uk/en_GB/p/Buffer-Cylinder-Volumiser-VOLANO-TERMICO-PDC-25l-/357 These are mild steel so you need to be well dosed with inhibitor.

Volumiser on flow, not return btw.

The stats probably read at the lower cooler section of the heater, so you’re correct in that you see the output temp being much higher than the displayed set temp. What you need to do is dial these back in live play, to get the output temp that you require, using the stat as a ‘volume control’ vs using the markings denoted on it. I’d still say to add a primary pump and tee off a recirculating loop, maybe via a 25L or 50L volumiser, for the best long term functionality. Should see much fewer on / off switching events and max out longevity of the controls. I’d defo keep the TMV and manifold pump as is, for ultimate floor temp control. You’ve already paid for and installed them anyways.

I only ever do a pair of D1 max into one D2 and that goes to one trap on one branch off the stack where practicable. Theres no problem if its a 40mm pipe coming off that picks up more than one trap, and the other traps collect water from appliances. See here where D2 is on a 40mm run that picks up both discharges from the softener that sits in that chair. Nowt wrong with this setup.

He uses his words well lol.
