price up part online. You can put stuff into clean them but may block up again. If it is your plate then maybe a system flush is needed to so it doesn't happen again. Hope its just your cartridge

If its just the shower going hot and cold I would be looking at a new shower cartridge. If all taps then hot water plate heat exchanger blocked

Ace massive difference. My joists are 120mm deep so only going to manage 90mm in certain places and 140mm in the rest due to pipework Will do

I was going to use PIR but my joists are 350mm wide and the amount of pipes and cables underneath would of made it impossible to get a good finish

Was your floor as per Ecological Building system? What thickness of wool was used?

typical women.....never happy haha

massive improvement in comfort. Im putting a breathable membrane down with 140mm and 90mm (max depth possible with pipes etc) frametherm insulation. Still not decided if il put a vapour barrier down though

how much of a difference in temp did it make?

Hi Iceverge, I'm been thinking about my floor and think iv changed my mind to rockwool slabs for under the floor. My joists are 90mm thick. Would it be better to hang the breathable membrane lower than the joists and fit 125mm (or more) or keep it inline with the bottom of the joists and fit 100mm? Thanks S

there is also 2 exterior walls i can go with 50mm pir on top which will make a big difference. I will be double checking that when i get home in a few weeks

ok il double check 90mm is good. Im sure it will make a big difference if I do it and this is the time while I'm getting a new kitchen

I'm stripping everything out start of next month. Il see if 90mm will fit ok. Would pushing the 80mm PIR right back and leaving an air gap at the front be better? New kitchen is really tight so literally ever mm counts. I will get away using 25mm most places but one wall will need 20mm

I will have a look over the next couple of days. Say I was to go the 80mm pir then 20mm ontop would any vapour barrier be required then?

That's the method I was going for but again using 75mm pir instead. My joists are 90mm thick so thought 100mm mineral wool would help much
