MVHR is Largely Bogus
Pocster replied to DavidHughes's topic in Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR)
Even though I’ve yet to even turn ours on it made absolute sense . Air tight house ; have to remove moisture somehow . Trickle vents are like a cheap bodge - of some but limited use . The fact in an area one vent drags stale air out and the other pushes fresh warmed air in will create a new cycle of good air . Be hard to compare how it ‘feels’ as a before and after as it’s a new build . Just seemed a sensible thing to do . Not many negative posts on mvhr on this forum . -
MVHR Location above Stairwell?

I did think it had to be a dry trap ?? -
It’s easy to give up . In my experience after 5 years fighting planning my assumption is that everything is designed so that you give up and quit . You don’t do that - no matter what ! ?
-
Lol Had this conversation- this is just for sensors . Solid cable to jacks etc . Yet to be done !
-
Currently pulled through 300metres of stranded 1 at a time so I can label as I go . Not even half way yet ! ?

Nah - don’t like tenants having gas . Gone for electric oven and induction hob - electrician will run a new feed for hob .
-
Ok it’s crap . 32A for hob ; seperate supply

This pack suggests it’s ok ???? https://www.myappliances.co.uk/prod/Oven-Hob-Packs/art50606-oven-and-hob-pack.htm?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI6YWNuJup5gIVybHtCh0cuwG7EAQYAiABEgJsXPD_BwE

I guess an induction hob equally draws little current. Are most electricians qualified to cap the gas so a swap to electric can be made ?
-
Actually ! Can I replace this gas oven with an electric one ? . Electric ovens require their own dedicated wire and fuse ? - or do they come with a plug i.e just plug in and go ...

Hey all Do gas ovens have fans ? IMG_0441.MP4
-
I do unfortunately ??
-
That’s what I said in a Bristolian fashion !
-
Bastard!
-
I answered honesty . But as I’m a complete cock ( as @Onoff will agree ) not sure how much help it will be . A cavalier approach at best ....
-
I need a long bath to get myself in followed by my appendage ?
-
Not sure . I bought a house to do up and sell that was my intention. Recession pushed that to 10 years later . Then I had changed tactic and went for planning . So my intention changed ????

I think it’s more about ‘intention ‘ Self build means to me fighting everyone from planning to trades . Then doing majority of the work yourself ; otherwise you are just the ‘project manager ‘ . To live in it is the goal . Nothing more primitive but rewarding than building your own cave .

I’ll do the survey but I think some ‘ real world ; hands on labouring ‘ is required. When can you start ? ?

It is poor Once more shows that sometimes “the professional “ is sh*te . From my own experience on the few occasions I’ve paid someone to do it ( on the assumption they’d do a better job than me ) - frankly I tell them it’s crap . -
? Can’t keep a good man down !
-
Yes I blame all of that !
-
Not sure what you mean ? . Apparently double or triple fits in the same frame so is just a swap . Hard work some of these companies.
-
You lot jinxed it ! 4 are double not triple ffs ! .Ho hum ! . I guess they’ll be back in 12 weeks to swap them !!! Nearly there !!
