In absolute honesty, no need. Most use an off cut of the wall / board material, so you’re on the money

And congrats on popping your 1k cherry

Times that by 22 and you’ll realise what a real problem you have……..

So you can get an early start checking for whether I said KwH or kWH or anything else i can do to keep you from relaxing. K-Wh

Ah, beer sometimes isn’t a help. Is that reference to the uplift in the basic ( minimum ) permissible target values? Basically Irish BRegs creeping over here.

Eh? Within the insulated envelope?

Its going to be a long night lol. More Cornish liver oil is required.

OSB to about 15mm off the screed. Same for PB. Tanking should be done after plastering, not before. The tray gets fitted ( bonded ) back to the surrounding walls with a decent amount of clear CT1, and then no water can ever get to either the PB or the OSB. Cementitious tile adhesive gets used too fill the 15mm gap whilst tiling the floor, which is pretty impervious to moisture. The aim is to keep the water where it’s supposed to be, so the quality / integrity of the tiling / wall covering is key to success.

I’m always up for a challenge.

Crikey. I need more beer. That’s more maths in that paragraph than. I’ve encountered in the 30 years since I left school Blue Peter badge on its way as we speak lol. No, it’s still a NOPE. Take it from someone who has owned and used a range of lasers for a very long time. For clarity, before we get our handbags a-swinging….. The question was about lifting the line up / down, and with some lasers they come with a bracket with a rack and pinion mechanism which allows you to fix the bracket and then tweak the beam up or down + / - 40mm ( whilst not tipping the laser back or forth ). You are correct that the beam would give 3 different plains, sides and front climbing, levelling, and climbing back down again. Why do I know? Because I bought a cheap laser back in the day and tiled a bathroom ( a bloody big bathroom too ) and the chuffing laser ( el-cheapo ) hadn’t levelled itself as the manufacturer promised it would. Tiles ran uphill 25mm over 6m. I kept quiet, and I imagine they’re still the same today. Oh, to be young. The room was so long and narrow it was lost in the natural perspective and nobody noticed, complimenting me on my laser and how cutting edge I was………..

Nope. They self-level or flash to say out of levelling range, if you buy anything tidy. My Bosch does than with a thumb turn to adjust up/down over about 90mm travel.

All day long. You can bypass the Sunamp and just fit Willis heaters for direct electrical heating, but then you ar stuck with a ratio of 1:1, whereas with a ASHP you’d be more like 2.5-3:1 so around a third of the cost. Completely dependant on whether or not the HP is matched well to the dwelling, and can run at a reasonable CoP.

I wish. Still satisfying to see the letter on the digital displays reading “ReD” ( reverse direction ) when we fire up customers installs. Basic digital meter in mine, and I get nagged to death by SSE to upgrade to a smart meter, but not sure why they’re nagging. Makes me suspicious.

I use Paul at UFH Trade Direct ( 01925 571999 ). Great service, quick delivery, good prices. Never let me down, where others have.

No problems there just not a great idea to have the pipes low in the slab. How much insulation is underneath?

Hungary I’m eating a bacon and egg toastie, on brown, with brown sauce. That’s what hungry is doing

Yup. They could just make the strip a little bit wider and add more cross sectional area to the conductors…..Not sure why they are all thinking smaller is better tbh, as the increase would be relatively marginal.

Dependant on lifestyle, so very relevant to many, including me. My tumble drier goes towards central heating because the thing is always going. Suits me to chuck it in there and go about my day vs pegging out the laundry. Sounds frivolous to some ( that's you ) but is practical to me. Horses for courses, fleas accepted.

Plenty bright enough for £35

Dark room at night, with those strips installed in the ‘cornice / coving’ I made. IMG_2711.MP4 With added footage of where £2.5k went on a kick-ass gaming PC…….🙄😢

Thus eradicating your aforementioned concerns.

£35 for 10m kit. Just checked my history. EDIT, price has gone up to £39.99…. Could be a deal breaker for the few ‘financially prudent’ folk on here.

5m is the norm, and cutting at 25mm very very rare. Usually in 3 chip segments and at 50mm or so. I bought from Govee for my kids rooms, with addressable LED’s, chips on strip, and I am very very happy ( for the price ). Zero evidence of dimming or colour rendition fading through the 5m strip, and I was prepared to add a second connection to create a ‘ring’ but absolutely no need whatsoever. I bought via amazon, £35/5m iirc……cheaper than shoplifting.

? None are true UK, they’re all just resellers of Chinesium items. I’ve bought some great kits off Amazon.

This would have me heading out of their showroom door like Lynford.
