Thanks for all your suggestions, I quite like the thought of dMEV fans but as it is retrofit project how would I power them?

Anybody?

Hi, been talking to Vent Axia about their centralised MEV system and they have said I need to get somebody to survey the bungalow as you need to measure duct length and pressure build up, etc to get the correct system for the job, is this correct. Or is there a better way to tailor the system to the house.

Hi I have a 85sq m Bungalow which is pretty well sealed up, so consequently got mould problems. Thinking about getting some window vents fitted and a PIV system, what does anybody think of these, whats a good make to get, should I get one with a heater in or not, are they expensive to run with a heater in. anything I have missed ?Thanks in advance

Unfortunately, it's all radiators

Hi, I would like to fit a 28 mm fill and flush valve to my system, but the valve reduces the bore to about 20mm for about 35mm in length, will this have any effect on the flow/ efficiency of my system. Thanks

Thanks for that, I have a buffer and separate hot water tank, my worries are after flushing the system and refilling I end up with air in the system like the buffer tank,hot water tank or the circulating pump. Would all this trapped air eventually make its way to the automatic bleeding valves.

That's interesting, where did you position it and how did you get to drain/fill the hot water tank.

If I did that idea, how do I get glycol back in the system

Hi, how do you eliminate stubborn air in the heat pump system when you have a single zone system.

Unfortunately not 😔

How do you know what type of glycol you have in the system, and if you can't does it matter.

Could you isolate and drain a radiator then fill with neat glycol

So if you found the glycol in your system was too low, how would you top it up?

Unfortunately, I need to keep an eye on the glycol levels in my system as it is a hybrid system with an oil boiler which comes on at about +5 degrees C, so I am going to need frost protection. At the moment I am using a refractometer and draining a radiator and topping up with glycol, if it needs topping up, Just wondered if there was a better way.
