That figure is for the whole house and it depends on the way the ventilation is done / arranged.

Well that did blow my mind. Just annoyed we don't have the surface area to go premium.

This will blow you away on several fronts.

You perhaps need to work this out as the current in two resistors in parallel to see the full effects of doing this you don't want one cable carrying more than its capacity when the other has not reached its maximum.

Sounds like it will be fun.. having done a few already we guess you enjoy it. Keep us posted.

Classic systems problem - the tragedy of the commons!

Is the new boiler a combi?

PS If the developer fixes your issue we can always make some edits and big them up for stepping up to the plate!

Perhaps we should name them here in an appropriately constructed sentence so the crawlers / bots can pick it up and get their name out there. This sampling approach is bonkers when it comes to being sure everything is done correctly everywhere by the larger developers. It seems that trust continues to be a thing even when trust has been shown to no longer be a two way street and redress is just a gapping hole in the system.

Looks like any stat, with timer functions etc, will do. I found the manual for your current one here: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/2425364/Theben-Ramses-797-B.html and it is basically a two wire connection. Here is the relevant page from the manual! Hope this helps...

Very interesting Terry - I was thinking of switching over to Octopus agile. here at millstone manor, now our move from bulb is finally complete and then load shifting but I think that while we still have a cooked supper it might be worth waiting until we fully retire and have a cooked lunch instead!

+1 to this idea provided the arrival rate from whereever is low. I had a similar issue in my underground workshop, tanked on the outside, and just running a 7w fan for the cheap rate period every night keeps it bone dry. I thought could be tiny amounts of condensation given the workshop walls are at a constant temperature it only takes a slug of air and the dew point to create damp. If, in your case, the lining cannot absorb it its going to creep down and have a party in the lowest corner.

As Alan says, and don't forget that as hand waving generates heat you should adjust for that in your calculations NOT

Anybody looking for the JSHarris spreadsheet can find it HERE: https://forum.buildhub.org.uk/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=18333

You can probably do it yourself with the JS Harris spreadsheet.

A small duct won't compromise your insulation much and allow you to get to the highest point. You have a lot of volume in the room above your proposed valve location so I would go higher. Where we have compromised the insulation we have upped the spec of the insulation in that area. So adding some PU, the main is blown cellulose, in that area to get back to similar spec.

Seems like a plan - I decided the kids were the bigger problem so I moved the dial on its spindle so it reads 5deg above the real value - not sure how much that has saved us over the years.

Just to be clear by lifting you mean removing the right of way? We sort of looked at stopping up a long time ago because someone local wanted to do it - we, the locals, didn't want them to. Turns out there are a heap of rules, the stopping up regs, AONB and Green belt would have messed with the planning needed to accompany, come before, it - in the end it has to go to the secretary of state so the chap gave up - too difficult. I think you need to wait until you want to develop it and wrap it into the planning with good advice, a following wind and no local opposition you should get it.

There is nothing to meet in condition 2 until you come to occupy - it says you must complete the remediation to the appropriate standard that is all - as I read it. The word 'development' may be your friend here - preparation is not development so you can prepare but don't do any development until you have had the survey, got the results, prepared a mitigation scheme (if any is needed) and had it signed off. I can't see them letting you commence the project, formally - as in record it on their database and stop the clock on permission time out, until you meet the requirement anyway. PS Welcome to the forum.

Yes much worse 😧

QED see my point above. Why not go another way, install a £10 device like this one https://kunkune.co.uk/shop/esp32-esp8266/esp32-cam-dev-board-ov2640-camera-2-4g-antenna/ and then tunnel it out of your router so you can watch it anywhere - audio options are myriad. PS To make this approach secure you will probably want to use a reverse proxy (Nginx is available on RPi for instance) and DDNS to keep track of your IP address unless you have a fixed IP address in your package.

What if the switch does not feed the light directly. I would have thought that 3 core and earth everywhere in a radial system would be a good option.

Still nothing on their web site - I guess they are still bugging it out.

This is, for me, the nub of the problem - so I won't have any device in our system that requires any proprietary cloud service. Even if support remains to many of these devices they become subscription services. You then get tied into their eco system which is another technology win for them that is a loss for you. Also you have no control over the data you are giving them as there is no 'tick' box anywhere that says I reject any onward use of the data, information, knowledge or wisdom that you are seeing as a result of my subscribing. I appreciate that with free services the business model is we can use the data in exchange for providing the service but once it becomes subscribed that should stop or at least you should have the option - by default. Its a Klondike out there and I would suggest being very wary of buying a stake - grub or otherwise!

I suppose that the higher the better would suit lighter than air gases, which most constituents of farts are - so they do some of the work for you if you see what I mean. JS Harris had a an extract directly into his WC bowl via the cistern IIRC.
