  1. 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.
  2. Your architect will have professional indemnity insurance.
  3. I would and have used solid Foamed Glass.
  4. They might look tacky, but having a screw head showing is just bad design IMHO
  5. That’s a great album by Supertramp
  6. If you’re designing a music room make sure you don’t have any parallel walls. Standing waves will be a problem.
  7. It's non-starter IMHO.
  8. Visit the National Self building and renovation Centre in Swindon. https://www.nsbrc.co.uk/
  9. I have DVD of a fire burning. Would you like a copy?
  10. 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.
  11. Just say that it might whistle with square vents, a man in Dorset said they might (LOL).
  12. I wouldn’t want to change the airflow pattern. You ideally want a smooth path from MVHR unit to the rooms.
  13. 8 mph sounds about right, but I would need to do the maths. That’s why just going a bit faster, which you and the others weren’t, makes a huge difference.
  14. You need a heavy wacker plate even if you reduce the thickness. An electric one won’t really cut it. Max 150mm per layer.
  15. Happy to meet up for a chat Adrian Shaftesbury
  16. That assumes that the flow rates are correct. IMHO most MVHR systems are not commissioned properly.
  17. Measuring/monitoring CO2 is the best way to check that your MVHR is running properly.
  18. OK. The only issue might be if/when you come to sell the property if the borehole isn't registered. Just heard that if the borehole is less than 15 metres deep it doesn't have to be registered.
  19. To be legal I think all boreholes have to be registered. The fine for extraction over the limit is very large. Have you had the water tested?
  20. All boreholes are/should be registered at https://www.bgs.ac.uk/information-hub/borehole-records/ This is a record of a borehole near (100 metres) me in 1929
  21. If you have the dwg files I can tweak them for you?
  22. The NSBRC in Swindon is a lot better. Are you in Dorset?
