  4. So very true We have 400 m2 over two floors with three vaulted ceilings and 2.7 ceilings for the rest So Bang It has to be 11kw All threes software said so One told us we would need two HPs I think they have to go with worst case scenario We would have been fine with a smaller HP We are using between £9-13 per day at the moment for heating and two baths per day

  15. Anything Sika is good I’ve use there self leveling regularly Your going to need 2 bags per m2 Nearly 300 to mix and lay Seems a shit load of work to save an inch I’d leave the rez bar off if it was that crucial
