  1. Let’s hope the neutral isn’t burnt out. always the neutral!
  2. Did you remember to tell them it was low e glass in the double glazed units and you have weather compensation programmer on your boiler?
  3. Haha, one recommends spending £4-6k on solar thermal to makes £25 a year annual savings… must be drive by EPC’s done by solicitor’s mates..
  4. Didn’t know you could download EPC’s from a postcode search, very handy, done all the houses that have been sold recently in my street to compare reviews.
  5. What make and model of ASHP do you have?
  6. What kind of floor has gone down that can’t be lifted?
  7. Is there any websites/apps like you get for heat loss but for EPC’s so you can see what you potentially get?
  8. Yes he gets £50 quid too
  9. Put the access point in a small water proof joint box? box thickness will be less than stud wall so signal shouldn’t be that badly affected?
  10. Insulate heating pipes as it’s part of good design, building regs, keeps systems temps. St design temp, keeps losses low. DHW I wouldn’t bother unless it was outside the heated envelope.
  11. Air con pipe need insulating or they will sweat constantly.
  12. Put the indoor unit so it isn’t blowing directly at you. high level wall mounted with the exterior unit through the wall to keep the pipe runs nice and short
  13. In Fife in Scotland all you need to do is photocopy your SJIB card( it proves you are a qualified electrician) and submit it with the appropriate installation certificate. all they want is someone else to blame..
  14. Great machines and save a lot of time and effort.
  15. I have a building that’s 3 phase, it has 3 single phase meters…
  16. What’s the architect drawing showing for this detail?
  17. How’s the hot tub Time Machine working?
  18. Small Air Con Unit known as A2A will be 4 times cheaper to run, provide heating and cooling You can also get a cheap night time tariff and bring it to temperature in this time frame and make it even cheaper to run
  19. SBR primer bonding coat to fill the gap, ready for suitable finish?
  20. Contact a pest control company?
  21. Can’t see anything different.
  22. Like the 1” tap idea! don’t think I have tap wrench that size, would a spanner/shifter work?
  23. It’s been difficult to get materials in a timely manner, so I feel for both sides of this situation. Juggling labour across multiple sites is just a good way of keeping everyone happy its not easy being a builder!
  24. Best get some samples taken and tested to prove either way. asbestos contractors can provide different levels of surveys have a look at the HSE website for clarity/ correct info. if your house was built after 1999 should be fine as everything was banned by then
