My humidity (last time I checked) was 38% so safe to say it’s normally around 40%. If the air temp is 25 deg, it gives a dew point of 10.5 deg so at 15 deg water temp that is a decent gap to avoid any condensation issues

Delta T on my downstairs loop is around -3/-4 deg

Would the condensation form on the outside of the tank? It’s just done it’s dhw cycle and seemed ok (fingers crossed) and water got to temp

It’s been on 16 since 12pm, every seems nice and dry. All tanks, manifolds are dry etcc I might tick it down to 15

Yeh that’s a good setup I’ll do my summer/winter switchover as usual on my ASHP controller and then just control the cooling by thermostats. I have set my water temperature for 16deg, I have done a lot of reading on the internet and this seems the lowest it’s seems to recommend to go is the temperature you continually change? As the dew point would fluctuate wouldn’t it

Found it! Thank you As you said I have wound my thermostats out to 35 deg to trick the controller/pump See pics below how I have programmed it to start with to see how I go In terms when I don’t need the cooling do you guys just turn the thermostats off? Thanks again

It does reference cooling, but for the life of me I can’t find anything in the controller/set up to enable cooling

Hi @JohnMo My ASHP model is panosonic WH-MXC12J6E5 and does not support cooling, I have just checked this on the controller and the lowest temp it can be set to is 20 deg I am guessing this is now a no go then Cheers

Hi All I have an ASHP, buffer tank,UFH upstairs and downstairs with a manifold for each floor and thermostat for each room. With the few day heat wave we have coming I have always wondered that if I could pump cold water around my UFH it may help with cooling? Has anyone does this and does it work? I’m not expecting it to do loads just help with a degree or 2. if possible what would be the best way with my set up? any advice/info welcome Many Thanks

Hi All Some more advice needed if possible We have just ordered a wendy house but it looks like it has undercoat of some sort on it (looks golden/browny colour) .The playhouse is supplied with a dip treated base coat preservative ready for you to top coat immediately after installation, this could be wood paint or stain. https://www.robertdyas.co.uk/shire-hatter-s-house-playhouse?&gPromoCode=FREEDEL30 I am looking to use Cuprinol Garden Shades (possibly First Leaves, taupe colour) would the wendy house need a primer before being painted? e.g Zinsser 1-2-3. This house will be sat on a decking base, most likely to be pressure treated can this be painted direct or undercoat needed? Any help/advice on this would be very much appreciated

Hi All I am getting my girls a wendy house for their birthdays (In May) and i could do with some advice on what base to do. It will be going on uneven grassed area https://www.robertdyas.co.uk/shire-hatter-s-house-playhouse?&gPromoCode=FREEDEL30 - somehow i've been roped into getting this one! I thought maybe a decked base so could have a small area in front of the house etc.. or hardcore and gravel? Any ideas and/or advice greatly appreciated Many Thanks

Hi All I am in the early stages of doing my driveway and we are looking at options of if we want to install electric gates etc.. I have put ducting around the drive and house so cabling is not an issue One thing I am struggling to get a definite answer on is distance from the road the gate has to be, this will determine if this is suitable for mine driveway and then when the visability splays Will I be able to do this under permitted development and will it need planning. I have made initial contact with my council but as always its very slow progress at the minute Has anyone installed gates (over 1m) and what regs/guidelines did they follow? I even had an electric gate company out and they didn't know (which didnt fill me with confidence!) Any information/advice appreciated on this topic Many Thanks

Hi All Work on driveway will be continuing in the next couple of weeks all being well, i have just designed where I want/need cable ducting and pits etc... It's looking like there will 4 cable pits fall in the lawn (well mud currently but will be grassed) and one drain pit in the grass, could anyone recommend any duct/drain cover pits that can have grass in them to hide the covers? Any ideas/information appreciated Many Thanks
