  1. You will get a small voltage drop, but nothing to be worried about. Max load for both is/might be more of an issue.
  2. I have just pointed "notebooklm" to BH and it works OK, but it gives more of a summary, but with links to the sources.
  3. Costing a build per sq metre is not a good way to build or manage. There are so many variables and what do you include. Estate agents don’t use it.
  4. A camera is a better solution and I used a Wireless Logic circle.
  5. Unless you insulate a letter box you could lose up to £120 in heat loss every year.
  6. Tell your builder than you are not paying him if it’s greater than three.
  7. That's not true at all. Having a uniform temperature in every room is the best way to have a comfortable home. And UFH (with a slab floor) and MVHR is the best, and IMHO, the only way to achieve this.
  8. ICF with a SIP roof is a common pair.
  9. you’re over thinking and over engineering the problem. You want a uniform temperature everywhere. Do you have MVHR?
  10. There is absolutely no need to have a gas hob or oven in 2024. The fumes alone will reduce your life expectancy.
  11. Once you have cooked on induction you won’t go back. The control ability is excellent and a lot better than gas. It’s a lot easier to clean.
  12. Your architect will have professional indemnity insurance.
  13. I would and have used solid Foamed Glass.
  14. They might look tacky, but having a screw head showing is just bad design IMHO
  15. That’s a great album by Supertramp
  16. If you’re designing a music room make sure you don’t have any parallel walls. Standing waves will be a problem.
  17. It's non-starter IMHO.
  18. Visit the National Self building and renovation Centre in Swindon. https://www.nsbrc.co.uk/
  19. I have DVD of a fire burning. Would you like a copy?
  20. I would look at using foamed glass for floor insulation, particularly if you are digging out as much of the foundation as you can and leaving the walls.
  21. Just say that it might whistle with square vents, a man in Dorset said they might (LOL).
  22. I wouldn’t want to change the airflow pattern. You ideally want a smooth path from MVHR unit to the rooms.
