OK! Related to my bathroom thread but specifically about floor and other issues. So!. We have large gaps for bath and shower tray to sit. Mainly so I can position waste and any necessary pipework. The floor as you can see is 150mm PIR then UFH screed. How should I fill these gaps once I know where my waste is going?. Just 150mm PIR and then mix my own screed? - I'm just worried the separate screed will not bond to the existing and therefore not be stable. 2nd issue is the false wall I must build to house the cistern and also hide a multitude of pipes etc. It needs to be away from the timber frame. Will this be strong enough for a timber mounted geberit frame?. Should I use steel brackets so that the false wall is tied to the timber frame for extra strength??? ( Photo shows frame and rough position of timber for the false stud wall).

Though my walk on / drive on roof is more complex I couldn’t penetrate the water proof layer but needed to have a layer to protect my vacuum insulation . I used a t & g type cement board . This gave stability and protected the insulation. I did also have more concrete ontop as well !

Council will make you remove them once all the neighbors complain! ?

Yep !

Nah get nice caps

Are these gates to keep people in or people out ??

If I've done it - you've got to do it! ?

Ok - more questions . Once ASHP is in assume I effectively have a hot and cold supply . Do I just connect these ‘mains in’ to Hep2o manifolds ? Then run 1 hot or cold pipe to every source ? If so should I run 15 or 22mm from manifolds ? How do the manifolds join together ? As I’m going to need a lot ! I see some manifolds are copper hep2o others just plastic and cheaper - does it matter ??

Yeah ; another job done . ct1 on all the solid white pipe stuff - those joints ain’t coming apart ! . Foil tape them aswell - just to be safe !

Yeah removed those also

Right ! All done ! . Taped all joints . Only thing left to do is get power to the unit and fit the condensation trap outlet thingy . Wasn't rocket science - but a surprising amount of work .

Yeah sorry about that . Mirrors and satin sheets removed now .

Depends on the view ?

Silent “Un”

So popped into bathstore to get a likely layout and pricing ....

In that order ???

Reading a lot about hdhomerun ....

Hmmmm the freeview app seems a bit clumsy - pushing you into itv app , bbc app etc etc . Some don’t seem to like screen rotation..... boss won’t be impressed !!

Freeview app seems ok ...

Oh found this http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/site/products/data_mytv2go.html prefer though someone who has done this rather than a ‘punt’ purchase ...

So ! The planning starts . Most automation will be via iPhone or iPad for say music . No problem. The bathroom poses a different issue though . Really I want an iPad wall mounted and water proof next to the bath . But also SWMBO wants to watch tv on the iPad . I don’t want no paid for streaming service - so can you watch freeview ( live ) tv on an iPad ( essentially a tv with all the benefits of iPeng , Plex , indigo etc etc ) off a tv Ariel ..... ???

Yeah ; i’ll Leave it as is . See if the thermostat blows again soon and then maybe re think .

Need hot water pretty much all the time . Shift work etc.

Perhaps ? https://www.guttermate.co.uk/mains-back-up-box.html

Ah I was “being good” and not mixing different frames with pans
