    Is this new potable water or waste water treatment. What does Document H actually say you need? If doesn't ask for anything tell them it doesn't.

    MVHR is ventilation. Aircon is heating and cooling, it's not ventilation. You need both ventilation and heating. MVHR doesn't solve the heating and Aircon doesn't solve your ventilation requirements. Your builder is talking out of his .... MVHR or another ventilation system is a must have. It's not something a heating appliance will replace

    Think you have chosen it, easy enough to do yourself.

    Home assistant uses the IP address and you can change anything you want from there, same as the Monitor app does. So fingers crossed. The phone app is useful to find the IP address, mine seems to have changed a few times, no idea why.

    All sounds dinky. My balcony structural engineer designed, was a combination of 10x2 and 6x2

    Yes all UFH plus one fan coil. I have found raising flow temp 1-2 degs higher than I thought was needed, at higher oat has allowed more controlled modulation, have had to use a high limit thermostat set at target house to kill the heat pump off though. The lower the flow temperature the higher the minimum output. It could be you are at or below min modulation and boiler is protecting itself, instead of switching off.

    Had an email the other day saying cloud services were now going to charge via a monthly subscription. Sort of raised a warning bell. Will do things other ways, locally via home assistant and or Monitor for GivEnergy Inverter.

    Those flow rates are higher than my heat pump, it's generally settling down to about 0.36m³/HR, most the time

    Isn't this why structural engineers exist? Plus with drops you should have a structural design certificate anyway. Other than that no comment

    It may bring you presents if your unlucky.

    I'm more worried about more wild stuff coming in for the night.

    She has a lot to answer for, energy market (oil and gas given away) etc as well. Plug in solar, if you get a fee for registration, who will bother registering? Suggest no-one.

    We have opening doors on to our decking in all bedrooms, but you can't really leave those open, an open window while sleeping, is very different from an open window for a sense of security.

    MEV is a single fan unit with all wet rooms feeding into a single unit and then to a single outlet through the roof. Get an intelligent one that alters fan speed based on demand, and install humidity activated extract terminals. Then add humidity activated trickle vents, for a fully demand operated ventilation system.

    People say the same for timber construction, which is standard building method in Scotland. No one has issue with finances or sales. External insulation has been given out free for ages by the government, so not seeing the issue there either. Personally I wouldn't do block or cavity build, it would be ICF or twin stud timber frame, as I could do both myself.
