:wink: :wink: :wink: Appreciated John :wink: :wink: :wink:

I mean that house designs change or evolve with time. I must assume then that because there is secondary means of escape from all 1st floor habitable rooms, that the planning/building depts passed this without comment?. The consent was only granted in Sept '09. Not quite sure how they...

Single occupancy on 2 floors only :wink:

That's what the joiner I mentioned told me, it does however appear to be incorrect though, Yes you wouldn't design it that way from scratch, but things change. Thanks anyway. :wink:

It is a conversion but fully approved for the use mentioned, not to worried now advised correctly. Upstairs also has 2 set of french doors with Juliet balconies so easy excape routes :wink:

Open vent it is then, just wasnt sure if it was needed, as I had read that only one was required. Had it not had to route round a window I would have done it without asking, thanks for the advice. :wink:

The work is being done under building regs, part of the reason for the question. The whole build has yet to be signed off. Yes, it does connect to the main drain after the primary vent. The new part of the system is external so I guess I should go with a secondary vent stack? Thanks guys.

Doing a development for the family. 5 bed house. Original toilet waste stack vent runs to above 1/2 roof level so good. Added ground level toilet direct into drain (existing) with no vent. OK? The new bit is a secondary 1st floor toilet, approx 6metres from the primary one. The builder...

It did recently go through planning and building regs without any any reference to special requirements. It was only when a joiner made a comment that we started to worry a little as we have not had the final inspection yet

Sorry if it's not clear. The situation is as above. The staircase does descend directly to the kitchen. The question is with that scenario am I in breech of any planning/fire regs :? I know it's not ideal, but is it legal?? Cheers.

Can anyone give me a basis rundown on any regs re fire protection in a house where the stairs lead up from the kitchen. It's a five bed house on two storeys, the kichen has doors of to the dining room hall and outside. Their is no door to the stairs ie they are open top and bottom. Mains...

So what are the problems you speak of Kevin??? Mythical installer??? No, just trying to find one with a braincell EDITED, Have to go now. Have a life, unlike you sadboy. We can continue this tomorrow if you desire, wouldn't advise it tho' as your last few posts have been total tosh.

Was thinking about a Baxi Platinum Gas Combi Boiler 40KW ??????

And a good evening to you Kevin :wink:

Sorry did reply earlier but must have not confirmed, anyway; Thanks for the HW figure, confirms what I thought. Did not measure pressure but CW pressure is very good Only old system that is at present unaltered and run in 15mm copper is available to test, rest is in 15mm speedfit but at...

Please excuse Kevp , I'll deal with him shortly It's not a new install, it is the boiler in the property when we bought it. Now a 17 rad 5 bed house. All heating good but the HW is not acceptable, contant temp, but poor flow. Temp roughly ok, ie not to hot/scalding risk. No issues...

Kev and Bengy, your views not required as you seem intent on rubbishing all I post. Situation now is that we have an Alpha 280e providing hot water and ch into the expanded property. The boiler is technically "just" on top of the job, and after being recomissioned yesterday is heating the...

Predictable Kevin, :roll:

Got a mssage for you Kevin :wink:
