Internal humidity indoors during winter months heated during the day ??

Anyone know what an average reading winter/summer levels should be?

@pocster???? think I’ve heard that once and shit myself! ? I actually thought it was aircraft outside. I emailed bpc to explain in layman’s terms. Keep you updated ??

@craigcheers I will look into this tomorrow it clearly is correct ??

Has anyone any simple instructions on how to work vent axia S, gone through all the menus, it has not been commissioned yet and the manual is poor don’t under stand summer bypass/ frost protection. fan speeds, how have people set these up higher extraction perhaps. not sure if internal should be producing warmish air as mine is cool! any help would be appreciated

Yep that’s what has happened they have sat the windows beyond the cavity and the cavity’s are closed not sure why they did this, I wasn’t involved in much of decisions at the start that’s where things have gone wrong, I’m no builder but surely fames should have been positioned inside of the cavity, perhaps the timber structure would cure some of the coldness on the frames. I’m beginning to think we should bring the frames inwards ?

Purple is the window Red is the void blue is the sips panel green is plaster board it looks a bit thicker as we put extra insulation internally it is a new build but we’ve been in 10 months! How long does it take to dry out mvHR has just been installed in the last 2 days

@ProDaveThe website states they are thermally insulated With low uv

@Gone WestI’ll dig out the spec of the windows I would hope they have a thermal break! I’m afraid that I’m just picking up the pieces of rouge builder and rubbish architect ?. I best get myself a hygrometer to measure. @IanR I have a feeling that they are installed incorrectly by the window company! See pic best one I got on my phone. @ProDave I’ll dig this out after a cuppa ??

So we’ve had our windows in for a while now, all have been fine until the colder months have arrived. We have a sips build and used aluminium frames. The windows have been installed into the stonework and not the frame! Is this correct? reason why I ask is the frames have excessive moisture where I need to wipe them with a cloth. I understand the frames will be colder due to the material but the moisture is pretty bad. I’ve only just rigged up the MVHR so hopefully this will help. I feel if the frames were within the timber there would be less of an issue. house is extremely warm so that may be an issue and hopefully MVHR helps

@pocsterWell that’s a much better idea ??? do u you have the same model?

The install instructions are pants so takes ages to work through and not comprehensive enough. I was told Diy install!!! , I presume 22 mm waste pipe just inserts into the hole followed with demountable connection for the existing pipe work

Perfect quick answer thanks tons ???

Morning, just pottering on with the MVHR all Plummer in apart from the boost switches, it’s a vent axia s, anyone out there with previous experience with this? everything seems to be Running ok I think! The drain outlet see picture attached seems to be sucking air is that correct? thanks for any responses ??

So attempted to bleed both last night and both let out water straight away ? should it be done when system is off? should I look at pressurising the loops?

Is that the sticky stuff in 20ltr drums

Are we talking days or years! ?

Nice one I’ll get to work on that thanks for the advice hopefully it’ll not take too long ??

Are they the black screw valves in the pictures above?

manual I presume see pics that’s the upstairs manifold

If air is in the system would that have an impact on the pipe work in the floors upstairs as in not heating up enough

The chap has looked at it a few times so presumed he would have drained the air out. Can air in the system damage anything

Hi Guys firstly apologies I’ve been missing in action for sometime. There’s never a free moment. so we have the ASHP installed and running still trying to bloody work the bloody thing out! Getting there slowly though. have an issue with noise when the ufh comes on I can hear all the gurgling etc from the plant room hopefully that’s normal and can live with that. However, after a short period of time this horrendous banging starts I thought there was a robber in the room so was wary about going in! When it’s banging the valve in the picture has the ball inside and it’s goes up and down making this horrendous noise. This picture is the culprit I’ll get a video of the problem and update. does anyone know the name of this component. The float that is in the middle of it jumps from the point it’s at to the bottoms springs back up if that makes sense. cheers t

Ello, im looking into purchasing tv points on the wall I’ve put the coax in so need to install the plates on the wall. Am I right in thinking it’s female ports on the wall plate? Following on from that they all meet in the loft there are 6 cables in a heap I need to connect them to a device to then forward to the Ariel. Stupid question what device do I need to connect them all up. Is it just an amplifier with appropriate number of ports that I need? ta
