preplumbed mitsubishi clyinder and controller has all that covered -heats up water every now and then hotter than normal ,aslo has an immersion in as well it has all pumps on it etc --a good package -go look at it

I went for the ecodan +preplumbed cylinder from them --which does your hot water from the ASHP as well no doubt others will tell you can do it cheaper and i would n,t disagree ,if you are hands on and want to learn all about heat pumpps etc - -but i went for simplicity and only I man to call if a problem I was on lpg --changing to ASHP and changing nothing else on the old UFH system I saved over £1000 per year on running costs--my house is an older TF from the 80,s --not super insulated like a new one you will build so yes ASHP will be cheapest and simplest solution IMHO

One of the reasons I am contemplating a "wet wall" --type of construction ==so there is a walk in service access( for slim folk ) down north side of house where you want few windows . from one end connected to service room a waste of space you may say --but any alterations in future can be done without destroying and internal finishes. may not be possible --we will see

think its as simple as you suspect it is ,but are wanting someone to tell you it don,t matter .LOL bung up every gap you can see and wrap it all and seal or staple it all down with decent overlaps you will never get at these bits again

Iwas tempted --if they had longer rails to go with it

you could use "brick slips" on any type of construction --they are much thinner--as a outer finish -

not sure how many want to pay the price for a long track --£200 ?

yes i bought a straight edge thats a clamp as well --fine for 4ft cut --but not long enough for other way www.onbuy.com/gb/clamps-and-vices/silverline-guide-clamp-1270mm-675056-guide-clamp-silverline-675056-1270mm~c5692~p3373033/ but neither are normal track saw unless you buy more extensions hardly the end of the world to clamp a bit of studding to a sheet anyway

yes I know that -,but in practise they quite often don,t follow proper guidelines or are overuled by councillors if it gets that far -but that is why the planning want more time to look at it and make a decision at this time but you can then challenge them if they up hold his objection and pay to have some fancy planning man fight it for you - but thats later

distance is fine for legal --but its what your planning man says about the objection--that will decide it. are you higher up than neighbour ?

nope it will be fine done that before when buying seconds --works fine just different backing basically ,still PIR foam

what ever you do it needs to be binding agreement for all subsequent owners of that land --so it will cost you money If you don,t then if owner changes --he could decide he don,t like it so yes something you going to need legals on

just a thought --where is the temp sensor for the ashp --.could it be its just circulating water around your piping that feeds the actual UFH and its sensing drop in temp there which is then causing it to come back on for short time then going off again sounds like your polypipe controller is not linked correctly to ecodan . maybe a plumber who is ecodan trained?

my first question would be does this used a pre plumbed cylinder from mitsubishi as well or just the ASHP are these plumbers approved ecodan trained men ? I have an ecodan pump+preplumbed cylinder which is running faultless and i have 8 zones on my system ,none of problem s you are talking about

mimium pressure fro my ecodan to work is 0.5bar--but engineer says he likes 0.8

because of BIK --I dont, run through my biz -at all I bought a new car --and run it private all depends on your circumstances and if you are into "street cred" my 9year old c-crosser is going fine spent nothing on it but tyres +brakes +servicing so due to value it will run till either it dies or I do both will be consigned to landfill at that point . If a customer asks me the best +cheapest way to run a car i tell them this buy a new one or under year old -- buy not lease start a separate bank account --for car expense once you have paid it off then and this is the important bit -- keep putting 50% of car payments in each month and run the car from that account by the time it is getting seedy --7 + years old you will have enough money in that account to go buy a another new one don,t work if you into "street cred" car purchase is either head or heart ,always has been . by that time they may have really viable electric car ,that don,t cost a fortune

just remember if putting UFH in slab --you got to get it right --you can,t start moving internal walls or things that fix to slab after or pipes will be in wrong places I think this is why builders like to do it in screed when walls are up and roof on customers have a habit of changing their minds on things maybe

fur coat and no knickers as they used to say

cold WC my solution was to fit more UFH in the wc than the hall --then let hall thermostat sort it out my guess is most put less UFh to dodge round things - I closed the pipe runs up as much as I could did same in bathroom as well works fine -bog is nice and warm +probably the window in there is open more than any other due to noxious smells

how goes the 50mm pipe problem dave

the design of your soakway field will determine which you need or if you need both

I think the main difference is that an inspection chamber is basically a hole to look at the pipe going in and out of the chamber a distribution chamber will have one inlet AND an umber of outlet connections --usually 4 for the soakaway perforated hoses so its fitted where the main grey water pipe meets the soakway field this is my understanding of it

so to clarify for me --NON pv man -- if you have panels with dif outputs it will level them out at average of all or drop output to what lowest one is out putting

ring the agents? econekt --in glasgow
