This is what I thought . But I think councils can choose to ignore like Bristol do and don’t !! . Planning for a 1 bed flat 50 - this ‘student pod’ less than that . Planning is anything but consistent...

Why on the news today a student ‘pod’ is 25m sq and they complain . Yet if I build a 1 bed flat min regs are 50m sq . Why is ‘student accommodation’ exempt from property size rules ?. It’s a self contained unit I.e bathroom , kitchen , bedroom . But if I submit anything less than 50 sq m - end of the world . Why is that ? ( grump )

Yet to turn on my Vent Axia SX advanced. All installed apart from electrics and the condensation drain. Mine is in a bedroom!! - as it was the only place available. Be very interesting to judge it's noise in normal mode and boost..

I'm sure there was a thread on this before. But anyway! Any recommendations Qubino over Fibaro ? Also when these 'switch' are they noisy? ; I'm assuming it's not a mechanical switch... I'm going to have a good few of these in a DIN cabinet so if it's clicking all the time might driver me mad. (der - before anyone else suggests that edit) Taking this one for example: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Qubino-ZMNHSD1-Din-Dimmer-Grey/dp/B01DL8OWS8/ref=asc_df_B01DL8OWS8/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=231965104222&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=6144952454685597230&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9045635&hvtargid=pla-422963820217&psc=1 Looking through the blurb I see the attached Does that mean it can switch multiple lights upto 200W (if 240V lights)?. If so how are the lights wired ? i.e. as there's just the return to the Qubino unit. Think I've found a sparky - but he's new to all this HA stuff......

Yeah and the ‘cliffhanger’ ending is always crap . Yours not Stenders !

Goodie ! It‘s like Eastenders . You don’t really follow it but it feels wrong when it’s not on .

Not used steel clad but fully empathise with poor quality tradesmen ...

On the p*iss !! My grannies knickers are straighter than that !

Trust me as soon as you go Hep2o the better . Mdpe can be ok but if you have a long pipe run you can ‘feel’ the fittings under strain - this is where you get the leaks . Hep2o pipe is more flexible and the fittings just feel tighter , more reliable- not had a Hep2o fitting cause me an issue yet .

It’s not what you make - it’s what you don’t lose in this case to the tax man !

Shhhh be quiet !

This is what I did . Split the plot . Sell main residence CGT free . Then build on plot . Also option of making that your residence when complete and sell CGT free again ?

Or ....... Split one plot off . Sell the rest CGT free . Then build a new residence ...

Ah yes ! If you sell the whole thing including your residence then CGT free !!!

Makes Brexit look easy !

Bitch !!!!

Why? ; that no CGT I mean ???

But they do seem to do stop cocks MDPE to Hep2o ......

Please note we do not have a connection between 15mm Hep2O and 20mm or 25mm MDPE." I'm guessing just Wavin don't but speed fit or similar do??

Wavin state " I would like to joint my Cold Water Blue MDPE Pipe with 15mm Hep2O barrier pipe for an outside tap. Is it okay to use? Hep2O is for internal use, however if it is used externally it will need to be protected from frost and UV light. Please note we do not have a connection between 15mm Hep2O and 20mm or 25mm MDPE."

Still changing it to Hep2o for my own peace of mind.

BUM!

Right ! Decided ! Rip this out and re do with Hep2o . I think the mdpe is 25mm

Tempted to rip all the mdpe out and just have 1 mdpe to Hep2o converter .... They exist I assume !

This is the worse offender . All my 90 degree fittings are plasson . You get that satisfying click when the pipe is fully in . Not with this crap tap and it wasn’t cheap . You can put the pipe in , no click , force it as hard as you can and it’s still loose and can almost fall out . I won’t swear in type I’ll just vent it out here on my own !
