September 20, 20197 yr Author Tis a true pain getting the solid pipe in place to allow for all connections
September 23, 20197 yr Author Well that seemed more work than it should of been ! . Needless to say foil tape and insulation yet to be added !!!
September 24, 20197 yr Author Question ! As i’ve Yet to power up the mvhr - do the semi flexible pipes move with airflow ? i.e should I clip them rather than just lay across joists ??

September 30, 20197 yr Author Right ! All done ! . Taped all joints . Only thing left to do is get power to the unit and fit the condensation trap outlet thingy . Wasn't rocket science - but a surprising amount of work .
September 30, 20197 yr Bet you're glad that faff has been completed! At least you have no ceiling in place yet so a bit easier to tape the joins. Did you end up CT1'ing all the connections or just taping?

Did you end up CT1'ing all the connections or just taping? Yeah ; another job done . ct1 on all the solid white pipe stuff - those joints ain’t coming apart ! . Foil tape them aswell - just to be safe !
September 30, 20197 yr Best to be safe. Especially if you get some muppet tradesman doing work after you and decides to sit/lean/swing from them! I won't bother using the illbruck stuff then- maybe that is meant to as a sealant when going through walls etc. Now that it's cooler, I'll force myself into the attic to finish that job I started months ago...
