Ok. So I think the pipe should have been coming back into the bottom of the hot water tank? There’s like an attachment for a pipe there but no pipe running to it if that makes sense

Hoping someone can help. We had an ashp fitted via a local company but our contractor who built tje house did all the plumbing. The local company came out to do the service last week and mentioned there is no hot water return to the pump and that it can’t be retrofitted. They said the plumbing wasn’t up to scratch but we can’t go back to contractor as we fell out towards the end of the project, how important is this return and what impact will it have if it’s not there please?

Am I missing something then? In our old house we didn’t use anywhere near as much as this (boiler) we seem to be using a lot more whereas we were sold on ashp due to having an energy efficient house we should save a lot of money, (ignoring price increase) we are using a lot more energy out bills are looking to be £600 this month alone!

How do I check my flow temps and weather compensation sorry?

Firstly, is my consumption high please? Our consumption fluctuates so much even when we’re not at home (2 week holiday early may) and I am so confused we have an ecodan ashp. I have attachedenergy-consumption 4.xlsx our usage and hope someone can help with whether this is normal usage please. we live in a 4 bed detached house, new build With all energy efficient appliances, epc b and air tightness test provided a result of 4.2. tia

How would I do that sorry?

Sorry yes ecodan. And it wasn’t left on as such I just assumed it would constantly use electric.how would I find out about whether it was keeping the sump heater operating? we have ufh downstairs and radiators upstairs and have no idea how we should be setting these to be the most efficient. I’ve contacted the company who installed but they only installed the ashp now under. Floor heating

Hi I’m hoping for some advice please; we’ve had a smart meter fitted and I’m convinced there are issues and have been contacting our provider for months. Whilst On holiday the house was using between 10kwh and 15kwh per day with only the fridge freezer and cctv on. Other than ashp nothing else would have been using electricity in that time. I’m now concerned with cost of electricity and possibly a dodgy meter, I need to be running this ashp at its most efficient through the winter months as we are already using an astronomical amount of electricity. we have an 8.5 kw eco fan ultra quiet ashp with a cop of 4.09 and a 250l hot water cylinder. Any advice gratefully received! thanks

Absolutely no idea sorry just remember seeing them using a nail gun to attach them

The problem we have is the house has been decorated so I don’t know how they rectify now? And from what I’ve read they’ve done it wrong using a nail gun rather than screws for plaster board and plastering wrong so the plaster is much thicker at the bottom which shouldn’t be the case, we have around 15 plaster pops already plus the issues with the corner edges. The odd wall being out of square I will live with I guess

So we’ve had our build completed and have now moved in, we have numerous issues with the plastering but I’m being told none of them are iasues all are normal and they’re for us to sort. Majority of the walls are thicker at the bottom than the top (we’ve found this out due to not being able to fit furniture in due to bottom being out, corners aren’t square, again found out trying to fit a desk in and it isn’t anywhere near straight. We have a ridiculous amount of plaster pops and have only been in a few months and we have cracks along joints and above door frames. We also have lumps and bumps and trowel marks in most walls. Same plasterers did the render. We have found that down the side of the bay window hasn’t been filled leaving around a 10mm gap and have asked them to come back. None of the reveals age crisp and straight and they windows haven’t been protected so there’s render on the windows. I’m absolutely gutted and don’t know what we’re suppose to do on this situation, and help/advise would be great fully received. We haven’t paid the final balance yet. Does anybody know if a quote is accepted inflation costs can be added afterwards? Thank you I can add photos if needed

I am lost. I’ve been looking at bioethanol fires for weeks and can’t work out who is a reputable company to buy from, we don’t have the budget for planks and realistically would be looking to buy a ribbon burner to build into a media unit. Can anybody advise or has anybody used a company for this they would recommend? Thank you

I know, I was just concerned with how it will work as the steel Post will be in the way of the window. I’ll talk to the builder tomorrow
