I don't mean to hijack the thread either, but I think this post fits into the general flow.
We've just moved into the house after having a single storey extension built.
I've noticed that there's no soil vent pipe (SVP) anywhere (contrary to the architect's drawings), and nor do there appear to be air intake valves (AIV) fitted internally any place that I can see. I've checked inside the cistern boxing, and there's no sign. Since they need to be accessible for maintenance I can't imagine they would be any place else. The soil pipes for the ensuite and WC aren't tied into the existing stack either since that's upstairs on the other side of the house.
I've had a look at Part H of the regs, but it's a bit confusing to the layman - can anyone advise me if one or other of these systems (SVP / AIV) should have been installed to comply with building regs ?
Thanks in advance.
