  1. yeah right lol the software police will come and make sure you dont press the 'cooling' button as that is the only difference in the setup.
  2. yeah i dont think you know what a fancoil is. you dont need planning permission for hanging a rad lol.
  3. sounds like your going to paying for moving it then, they have a valid paid for wayleave. doesnt matter if ownership changes it doesnt negate it. pays never to skimp on legal searches.
  4. so when you bought the plot, your solicitor would have gotten all the wayleave details no ?
  5. can allways use fancoils if space limited, double as AC in summer as well.
  6. cant see the difference, just do dew point calc to see where it is going to form in your makeup. cant see adding more insulation would make it worse though ?
  7. it doesnt at least for cavity batts. our 150cav is completely full with dritherm, air flow leeches heat.
  8. does seem to be OTT size but then its going to be a rip off MCS installer so to be expected. our new regs new build heating requirement came out at 29w / m2 with a -15C outside temp less than half of that at zero when i did the initial calcs, actual performance is a little better.
  9. without doing the dew point analysis, could you not put 50mm celotex in the cavity ?
  10. almost like an oven but with zero insulation round it!
  11. you may be overthinking this. if they are 2 part cills you can just cut them to suit.
  12. 2 ovens, micro and coffee machine in a quad setup.
  13. the comprimise on squeezing in the WC is to block off the lounge opening to release a corner, massive difference in space.
  14. no, you have the width of the tile to account for as well.
  15. yes we use a powerwall. microinverters defeat the issue with shading string inverters suffer with i understand.
  16. any flow temp 40c+ is going to painfull to run. is there scope to better the insulation ?
  17. the best inverters for solar are the micro ones attached to each panel so cant serve a battery as well ?
  18. wonder if they are DNO approved ?
  19. doesnt come with an inverter ?
  20. whoever supplied you with the panels and inverters.
  21. not far our from ours. We managed to save 50% of the inspection fees by having less of them. I think they allocate around 5 visits. we had 3 total. Foundations. Pre plaster Final. They were happy with lots of photo's of specific areas by email.
  22. we ran all our towel rads (electric so they can be used independant of ASHP) of a single smart breaker in fusebox. Each has a TRV for user preference. Then Home Assistant controlls the whole lot, enables dumping of power into them based on the half hourly rate from octopus etc
  23. make sure to try them wet, jewsons had one setup outside, it was like an ice rink wet. Wasnt cheap either.
  24. expensive nightly rate and a silly cost analogy. a rock and bucket to do your washing would mean your washing machine would take 35 years to pay off.
  25. whats the point of having cooling and heating rads ? Not like they are going to be used at same time ?
