  1. Well ! The plan of shuttering the ufh screed leaving ‘easy’ space for waste / pipes etc . probably not the best ! Anyway - block infilled the ensuite . Will batten up tomorrow. Then should be able to cut 1 piece of marine ply to cover the lot . Have the shower tray so in theory can position waste hole in ply and through beam & block .
  2. I double checked with my installer and indeed Tesla themselves - no power wall 3 is in development ( not of course ignoring that could change ) There isn’t much cause for one here in the UK - you can usually only use 3.8kw as limited by the grid . So larger storage not really helpful . Even if pv panels came out tomorrow at 40% efficiency ( as opposed to 20% today ) the benefit is limited - charge your battery faster especially in summer . As Tesla the only real improvements for a power wall 3 would be a physically smaller unit and of course a lower price . So the biggest hurdle is actually the grid .
  3. Still not finished ffs ! Sorry @Onoff SWMBO and I went tile shopping today . F’me ! . “I’ll give you trade discount mate ‘ - still had to swap out items for cheaper ones . Why are nice tiles £50 sq m and shite ones £10 sq m ?☺️
  4. Like that glass box ! Just needs some walk on glazing ...
  5. I used a tool less keystone for the 1st time - did cuss a bit . I think it should be faster than crimping .....
  6. So it’s just noisy because of old fan bearings worn ? I.e new fans would be much quieter ??
  7. Uvc ‘s don’t have a pressure gauge though do they ?? - so how do you know there’s an issue ?
  8. Only just powered on the 48 port bridge ( bought off eBay ) rather noisey ! Thought a plane was taking off - that might be an issue ...
  9. No !!!! - I’d cry !!!! It has to be organised otherwise a logistical nightmare
  10. Thanks . Emailed agent to get warranty details from plumbing firm ...
  11. As a precaution have arranged for a plumber to inspect the other flats tank - just in case of issues ....
  12. I have another flat in the same block with presumably the exact same original tank etc ... Makes me think it’s a bomb waiting to go .....
  13. Who knows . I was always under the believe ( as told to me by multiple plumbers ) that they need no servicing ...... The report from plumber ( as supplied by agent ) says “ariston water heater appears split “ Now says replaced with new stainless steel . Is it possible it wasn’t steel Originally ? ( I haven’t been to the property in 15 years so I certainly can’t remember)
  14. 1 done and tested . 49 to go ?
  15. What’s the real difference between internal and external cat ??
  16. Had this happen twice on seperate rental properties... ???? Is this common ? Both tanks about 15 years old . It’s an expensive mess when it goes wrong . 2 tanks in 3 months £££££ - donations gratefully welcome
  17. I didn’t know that !!! How ? These are poe ( not sure if that has any impact )
  18. You can never have too many!
  19. 4 points per bed room. Multi Sensor (or 2 ) per room. ip cctv (not in bedrooms! - but maybe a covert one in the bathroom! ?) Wall mounted iPads to control HA (or use phone) etc.etc.etc. + lots of other smaller things like for TV etc.
  20. What's this nonsense!!!
  21. Think I’ve done all the wiring for the above ground floor . Bit of a nightmare if there’s an issue . Going to start wiring up the 50 or so cat5 cables ? ; boredom will become king ! It is indeed the Devils Corner !!
  22. I think from memory ( need to check ) I used http://www.vacuum-panels.co.uk
  23. Replaced that cable in the end . Still ordered 4 of those maintenance free connectors - bound to come in use at some point .
  24. Not sure tbh . There was a cover over this which I ripped off so *assume* this is the finish ....
  25. Here’s the far side vertical . Also steel ; no jamb to cover any screws .
