Lutron Caseta is only available in the US. In the UK you need Lutron RA2

I have a very similar model, and for the money it's fine and has done well so far.

Absolutely, Kingspan GreenGuard is good for this. But isn't it quite common for cavity construction to fill the cavity below a certain level, thus creating a cold bridge? We have a busy family home, and with complete external insulation and modern well fitted windows, the house is a...

Were they travelling folk...?

Solid blocks and insulate externally.... may as well make the blocks part of your 'heat store'.....

Not really good enough, 100mm of Rockwool won’t have the same U value as the probably 90mm PIR in the cavity. He should really fit the same spec of PIR and seal it well. Could take him a while….

Yes 100mm is whats recommended.... I applied using a 4" foam roller. I'd just keep the contact adhesive in the house, and run it out when you do the work, and you will be OK. @Notch7 picked up my mistake - yes nail through a batten on the overhanging excess rubber, nails alone will pull...

Good that there will be drips and kerbs. Yes glue the rubber down over the whole roof. If you have excess rubber where the damaged fascia will go, bang a few clout nails as far down the wood fascia as you can to seal it all up, and when the drip goes on that rubber will be cut off. Don't...

I guess so, it seems there is no gutter then? In that case water will run down the fascia and against the side of the building, which isn't good news. A drip edge / trim is always pretty important. I'd also not want to trust glue on the top if a thin piece of fascia as the only method to stop...

Sounds unusual, the EDPM would terminate within the drip trim. The fascia would be below that, and about 25mm further in....

Some of the replies here are exactly why people don’t bother asking questions. Some people have to act all high and mighty, though, sadly

Well who do you need to show the report to?

Yes it will, so where heat is being lost rapidly will show as cold. Certifications are worth very little here.... who needs to see the certification?

COM1 and COM2 are the same as COM on the old. Without being able to edit your photo, on the new switch the top COM1 and L11, L12 are for 1 switch, COM2 and L21, L22 are the other switch. Get the COMs in place, and the other 2 wires for each side are interchangeable... if you get them the...

Surely a thermal camera is the right way to go?

Sounds like absolute nonsense tbh. If the base under it doesn't move, it will need a huge weight to crush or damage the paver. Many times I've had a pallet of blocks lifted off a HIAB to about 3m away, with the rear support leg on a small rubber pad, on my paved drive, and no issues at all.

With it being raised in a cabinet, it may be vibrating the while thing. A rubber mat under it may kill the remaining sound. But as others have said, that radiator needs moving! Will make the fridge-freezer work harder, costing more and shortening its life.

Whats the issue with blobs? I thought EWI was fine on a blob each corner. and 2 near the middle on 1200x600 boards. Why do you care how any adhesive is removed... presumably the property did, in fact, need EWI?

They want a version of the “facts” that the BC will accept.

Well, you're a delight aren't you!
