    Kitchen tap with retractable hose - recommendations?

    And therefore it'll be a cold tap at best I have one on mains pressure combi and it did reduce the flow considerably even on that.

    Insulation under first floor bathroom

    I suppose people have differing opinions, experiences and house designs. I've just had a quick Google and plenty of sources state not to and the reasons why but hey-ho each to their own :) Nothing else to add from me.

    Insulation under first floor bathroom

    I dont agree. In a standard layout house (notwithstanding a bedroom over an integral garage where you would obviously want insulation between the two) it is not desirable to insulate between downstairs and upstairs. Your heating system should be balanced accordingly to avoid the situation you...
