  1. You could try MGA Consultancy in Exeter his tester lives near Bristol and travels the south west, I don't know how much he charges now but I payed £225+vat in 2021.
  2. The Q450 only has one mode and the frost protection works As @JohnMo said, I looked on the app in the cold weather in January to see what it does. I think about 6 or 7% at -5 but I guess depends on humidity levels.
  3. We have the Q450 in a 260sqm house in Devon, we are running at about 75% of building regs flow rate. This is normally about 40% humidity which is fine. The unit goes into a frost protection mode when below freezing, it just reduces air supply by a few percent. The unit is in a cupboard in my sons bedroom which has been soundproofed a bit. The supply vent is louder than the unit.
  4. I have one of these, https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08L81K2P4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 they fit sideways but with a news paper slot below. It's quite good and stays dry in heavy rain. The first one got wet with light rain.
  5. That's good at least you know it's not using 130+w each that was mentioned before. It maybe be that like @Conor said and twerk that zone down a bit so it is not coming on so much.
  6. Yes I have the lan C module which was part of the package. It is very good but I did just see how much it is. Just out off interest can you check the usage on the units so we know there usage it is in menu, status and energy also the l/s flow rate. I think your energy use is because the ashp is short cycling with the smaller circuits, I have gone to 1 thermostat as 1 room would call for heat first but did not have enough volume in the system so kept cutting in and out. I only realised because I was outside doing something next to it and it kept cutting in and out. It was using more electric but I can't remember how much. I also have a 8.5kw ecodan.
  7. Have you got the Zehnder comfo control app it will show actual usage, my Zehnder Q450 uses about 40w, I tried it on boost and was 75w then I changed to Max ventilation 167w. This is mine the supply and exhaust need tweaking when I get around to it. Our house is 260sq m and a bit better than building regs.
  8. Yes I think it is a manufacturing default but getting them to admit it is another thing. I think the MDF backing is not glued or compressed very welland does separate in layers. I am planning on tiling most of it in a 2 or 3 years when we can afford it.
  9. I think it is the same as manufacturer as mine Krono 12mm, the kitchen I did glue all the joints as I did want it fairly water resistant and it is fine with no issues. The hallway is doing what yours has. You could see if you can move the joints apart on the ends (I can move the whole row of boards and seperate the joints by kicking the top of the board with trainers on) and glue the ends, I have managed to on the bad ones.
  10. What sort make of flooring is it. I have put down some cheap laminate in our downstairs which has done this, I hoped it would last about 5 years as with 2 young boys you never know what's going to happen. It is just badly made unfortunately as you can walk over the joins and see the flex.
  11. I used the Easyslates on a garage, they were quite easy to fit and and stops any water going sideways off the join with the thin plastic upstands. The only way it could go is to the top of the slate.
  12. As @Russell griffithssaid do not use cling film stuff, I spent about 5 hours 1 evening until 11pm getting up about 1.5sq/m before the customers furniture turned up the next day for them to move in. Antinox and tape to edges cut back for skirting, it will not stop damage from dropping sharp or heavy things, do not cut anything on it either as is no protection to a knife. Hardboard is a good idea
  13. I bought these for our house. https://thehomeofinteriors.co.uk/product/rolls-neo-metal-curtain-pole-35mm-stud/ I could probably just hang off them, the kids have not damaged them either. They also have more substantial ones as well but not cheap. Ours are more than sturdy enough.
  14. It was not to bad😁 and the house is 260sq meters which helps, just having a 8 and 3 year old and trying to keep it safe for them was the main concern. The outside was a typical building site so had to make a temporary patio and fenced off area so the youngest did not escape.
  15. We moved in with a the kitchen breakfast room finished, 3 bedrooms and 1 ensuite. We had the stairs fitted but the hall landing not finished as well as most other rooms. The building inspector was not bothered, he said it was up to us. Our site insurance covered us but we had to get separate contents insurance. We lived here 2 years before final sign off and fortunately HMRC paid out last month on the VAT.
