  1. The Egger instructions seem to say either is ok...... https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwjI0OOZp7iPAxXjbEEAHX5LOO4QFnoECBwQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.egger.com%2Fget_download%2Fc19090af-796c-4d84-86bf-33909a20f6bf%2FFlyer_Advanced_Structural_Flooring_System_Fitting_guide_UK_05_2024.pdf%3Fcountry%3DGB&usg=AOvVaw1t1ze_7xhNmM1ygxieNHff&opi=89978449
  2. These don't have a clear flow, but at least they're designed to be "clearable", and hopefully they'll save the trap from getting clogged. https://www.qssupplies.co.uk/bathroom-furniture-shower-taps/90185.htm
  3. Our ducted unit downstairs is going to need a total of 8 x 150mm ducts installed, which the posis can cope with, but upstairs we chickened out and went for individual wall mounts , as we couldn't see how to do the ducts in our (hopefully) airtight ceiling.
  4. Sorry, bought mine > 10 years ago! Not recommending, but I think this is a good make...... https://www.amazon.co.uk/Labgear-Universal-Freesat-Satellite-Receiver-Black/dp/B09QL992DD/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2MUKK4JRF7PVD&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.4Pzm7Lpqh67uiC_vhTcSCz7T89hL3jllJurtFXQsSbNMoph_Bv3aqGXc35m0_kWN-ahuWheH0ktoIHlt8_wbqy1mUsHfWqg81VEWE-d-hM82JaksehRUexpGiNQcOvdrsfnqXQk0jA2dT-jVNXIhvKP6QAUnWSQQq47M-EorqcoZ3OlNIA6Qj7SPdw14yvCLO419OgNzCN-wIUyZPep67SApXCf8A_IKq6hujj27NJc.Wh4DbXVr-w6Qa_RAWqDNej2xtTS5A3I7UiZbK6iCFdI&dib_tag=se&keywords=octo%2Blnb&qid=1754156823&sprefix=octo%2Blnb%2Caps%2C162&sr=8-2&th=1 or https://www.amazon.co.uk/Humax-LNB-182-GOLD-0-1-dB-Ports-Gold/dp/B00BAWQS2G/ref=sr_1_4?crid=2MUKK4JRF7PVD&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.4Pzm7Lpqh67uiC_vhTcSCz7T89hL3jllJurtFXQsSbNMoph_Bv3aqGXc35m0_kWN-ahuWheH0ktoIHlt8_wbqy1mUsHfWqg81VEWE-d-hM82JaksehRUexpGiNQcOvdrsfnqXQk0jA2dT-jVNXIhvKP6QAUnWSQQq47M-EorqcoZ3OlNIA6Qj7SPdw14yvCLO419OgNzCN-wIUyZPep67SApXCf8A_IKq6hujj27NJc.Wh4DbXVr-w6Qa_RAWqDNej2xtTS5A3I7UiZbK6iCFdI&dib_tag=se&keywords=octo+lnb&qid=1754156823&sprefix=octo+lnb%2Caps%2C162&sr=8-4
  5. Not only cheap and easy, but works perfectly! And you can fast forward recordings to remove adverts. Why not just get a cheap (or otherwise) Echo to deal with radio. Unlike TV, hugely better streamed.
  6. I've probably misunderstood what you're looking for, but wouldn't a straightforward 8 port LNB do all you want. Or possibly a Hybrid 6 if you've got equipment that can use it.
  7. Thanks @Nickfromwales. we're self building just for ourselves, so I assume we're " visitable". Google seems to show that "adaptable" is optional....
  8. Could somebody please reassure me that there's no minimum door width on the first floor for a new build. Part M Section 7 seems quite clear that minimum door widths only apply to the entrance storey, but Googling only seems to mention 750/775 clear opening, with no mention, even in the "AI" bits, that this is only for downstairs. Is it specified somewhere else? I don't want to get it wrong! Thanks for reading.
  9. @Nickfromwales Thanks, advice appreciated. @John Carroll Thanks for the suggestion. Those combined things do look interesting, and looking at Screwfix etc very widely used I think. Unfortunately no sink nearby, and also I'm going to fit connections for 3 appliances.
  10. Thanks @Nickfromwales Quite agree about accessibility, that's partly why I'm dubious about using the void. Would like to avoid cluttering up the cupboard / drawer unit if possible. What do you think about using one of those nozzles you referred to in that topic with a HepVo. Would that seem better than the Amazon thing? That would go under the kickspace.....
  11. Hi, I'm trying to get my head round how to connect the washing machine (and TD, DW). I wondered if anyone has used one of these, or similar. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mounted-Siphon-Washing-Machine-Chrome/dp/B00D6FCQO4/ref=asc_df_B00D6FCQO4?mcid=10ef8fd756793f09b624b4235a47ccce&tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=696352102719&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=10560092967412209591&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=20339&hvtargid=pla-422507636596&psc=1&hvocijid=10560092967412209591-B00D6FCQO4-&hvexpln=0&gad_source=1 I think it might fit in the kickspace next to the appliance, along with the cold feed and 13a socket, which would be quite neat. BUT I'm worried about not using a conventional standpipe waste. And I can't understand where a standpipe would go, as the void in the back of diy kitchens is only 42mm, and I'd rather not remove the back of the unit. Advice badly needed!
  12. FWIW, our SE approved using starter bars (frame) screwed through to the core. Wouldn't dream of cutting back the inner insulation!
  13. @SteamyTea @JohnMo Thanks. I'll try and cut down on the over thinking!
  14. @SteamyTea Thanks for the reassurance! Could you possibly give me an idea of what I would need for the separate component system.
  15. @SteamyTea Thanks for the explanation. That's really helpful. Althougfh a bit worrying as well!
