  1. 14 is a bit cold ?
  2. forget MVHR for cooling, we have the Q350 with the expensive heat/cool battery and its totally useless for cooling. The fancoils on the other hand amazing. Just insulate all the pipework to them and run a condensate drain to them.
  3. cupboards below counter height are fine with pull outs and cab be more accessible than drawers. The main issue for op is there isnt enough room to make it nice with the open layout and everything crammed into a corner with a door messing it up. put up an irregular stud wall to separate the lounge gives a lot more feature space to work with and keeps the stink and noise out the living room and lose the separate utility completely.
  4. bending down for an oven is bad design
  5. use stainless steel brads
  6. they will make you divert it, if there is fall. Very very unlikely they will allow it through your footings.
  7. 15 days to install hahahahahha, Did our first and second fix in less time than that including fitting the bathrooms. I think they are taking the pi$$ out of you.
  8. the building is definitely a snowflake free zone. Are yyou doing site/subby work or smaller projects ?
  9. battery minimix
  10. be interesting to see if a combination of trickle vents and one of the single room type MVHR units, this one does 50m2, would be a comprimise on heat recovery vs full mvhr https://www.bpcventilation.com/bsk-zephyr-single-room-heat-recovery-unit
  11. be cheaper to take the roof off and use attic trusses. be in the dry in less than a week.
  12. core directly behind the ASHP and you wont see the connection. Make the hole big enough so the insulation is not compressed and then seal it up real good.
  13. klober do a really nice dry virge, gives a much higher end look than a sea of plastic fascia and barge https://klober.co.uk/dry-verge-and-valleys/dry-verges/p/continuous-dry-verge-s-strip
  14. use morter will be fine. seen a pallet of blocks on top of screed before with no issues.
  15. non-habitable rooms should not get damp enough to worry about as its us that generate most of the moisture. Insulation job is to prevent condensation by moving the dew point inside the insulation where condensation cant form.
  16. interesting. But how are rooms without a dmev unit in, bedrooms, studies, living rooms etc supplied with fresh air ? Really needs to be a low cost midpoint between full blown MVHR and through the wall fans with trickle vents.
  17. put down an electric heater of some sort that passes sap. never fit it. crack on.
  18. the warehouse style layout, make some rooms. Plenty room for another en-suite.
  19. i like it, massive improvement.
  20. think BCO would treat that as roof.
  21. 2 issues jump out, highways and a new access on the bend. space for at least 1 car (if its a 1 bed) to turn around in. The rear will be overlooking neighbours amenity space.
  22. long walk to access plant room. double doors into main living areas look good. lot of corridors.
  23. is the outside covering tiles or brick ?
