Neat

Ashp's switch into dhw 'mode' upon demand. Upon doing so they revert to a predefined or max flow temp output to produce dhw as fast as possible. Modulation won't come into that factor and CoP goes south until the cylinder is satisfied. Solar Pv is your friend when you have a heat pump.

Fermacell doesn't get plastered though does it? Don't over sink the screws in plasterboard or you'll completely lose the purchase of the fixing. Drywall screws are bugle head so as to pull the paper of the PB in without tearing it, and also all drywall guns have a good depth gauge to ensure this gets repeated uniformly. If your really worried then scrim over each line of screws and put two sets of skim over. Fwiw two walls in my bathroom both white boards, I know, and only one wafer thin coat of skim and 2 years of splashing, high humidity from shower, and no paint on one wall ( it'll get done ) and not a whiff of bother . Normal drywall screws set to regular 'depth' and it'll be tres bien Rodney.

Pick out the internal reveals then, and hey presto!

Uncoupling or decoupling? The former doesn't get bonded to the slab, the latter does. Eg one more layer of adhesive with a decoupler.

That's all in the past ok

That's what the Chinese ones do.

Simple, you don't. If you want level you wouldn't buy a wonky tile

Use that as the buffer between your ashp and the Ufh ? Worlds first oven with a CoP of 3.5

All hail the ale.

Is there a replacement door going back in like-for-like?

You can always grind the slab a bit if there are a few nasty bits kicking the tiles up.

Here

You can't actually be serious? Just buy one FFS, I'll give you the money

Tiles are typically 10mm average, and allow 3-5mm for adhesive, maybe a bit more if the slab isn't perfect.

Maybe one with less thermal mass? That and the BBQ would make a good duo for bigger parties. One to cook, and one to keep warm / do the breads and jacket spuds.

Not guilty.

Went for the wall mounted arm as there's no attic above, just the small vaulted roof space. Does provide a handy hanger for me shower gel though

You just HAD to, didn't you

This is what I went for. Cheap and cheerful off eBay. Looks good enough me thinks. Whole lot set me back less than £150. Yes, I will get around to fitting the coving at SOME stage These things take time.

I feel so dirty.

Nice.

The majority seem to be cheap ass Chinese eBay junk. Sorry, but I couldn't think of anything worse........ Why not get a nice classy unit and then some stand alone lights placed accordingly ?

Yup. They'd sacrifice the door to save the reveals These doors sell for pennies so not really worth hacking the house to bits to get it out whole IMHO.

My knee jerk thinking is leaning towards running a bigger unit at a relaxed pace. Its not the same discipline across the board though, as with oil your told to size match as close as possible and run them hard for best efficiency. I think it's down to how much dhw you need and how often, and size from there.
