All, Good Morning. I am looking at converting a standalone brick and flint garage into a 2 bed holiday let. One of the questions I have is the insulation of the existing concrete floor. I was looking to install a damp proof membrane, 50mm of insulation board and then 22mm chip board floor...

Thank you I thought that might be the case for the outside wall. Would that still apply for an internal wall?

Evening, I am looking to take on the task of converting a free standing brick and flint garage into a 2 bedroom holiday home. I am in the early stages of getting this project underway but one issue i have come across is regards insulation of the walls. My initial plan was to build and...

Thanks for the reply. It is connect directly to the fuse board in the house on its own trip. I cant tell you the condition of the cable as it is buried from when it leaves the fuseboard until it appears in the garage. I will try and get some pictures posted later today.

Afternoon all, I just wanted to post a quick question concerning my electrics to the garage. My son has just moved into a new house and the switch on the fuse board for the garage is taped down and says do not use. When I look at the electrics in the garage I can confirm that everything...

All, Good afternoon. Just a quick question, I want to replace the PIR in our hallway with a pull cord. The wires going into the PIR are Brown, Black and Gray. If I want to wire these up to a standard pull cord switch. Where would these colour wires go? I’m assuming drown is live. But where...

That’s interesting. I’ve just spoken with Stuart Turner and they are suggesting I use a 3.6bar monsoon pump which i would have to wire in on a separate line to the fuse box.

Sorry To quiz you Andy. Did you have a directed line for the fuse box for the pump or was it just plugged in to a 240 spur?

Thanks for the feedback Andy. I will do that.

Good Morning All, Its been a while since i was last about. I'm looking for just a little guidance at this point and i am sure you will be able to assist. We have a very old Victorian house and over the years the house has been extended and new bathrooms have been added. So far we have one...

FYI, I emailed Triton to get their thoughts on the rig up after all the comments. This is their response. Thank you for your recent enquiry. Potentially there is no problem with the arrangement you have suggested. The key point is to ensure that the pump chosen is capable of delivering the...

Kitchen isnt much better im afraid - 7 litres per minute I was hoping to use a triton t300si shower.

Yes the plumber and I have looked at that but due to the water flow it's not going to get the feed volume it needs. So to avoid it being starved of cold water further when another gap is opened at the same time we are going with a seperate water supply and booster pump. The pump will run of a...

Ok full set up will be a cold water tank and single propeller pump (due to the fact we only get 6l / min in the bedroom). Into a standard electric shower which will beat the water. 10mm Cablw will power the shower, set up is pretty simple and standard, so not to confusing.

Gravity feed, but water pressure and flow is terrible so we need to install an electric one with a water tank supply

Afternoon all. I am looking to install a 9.5kw electric shower in one of the bedrooms I will be running a separate 30m, 10mm twin and earth cable from the circuit board to the shower. The cable will run the majority of the way through the loft and a cavity wall, however there will be a 9 to 10...

Evening all We had some flooring laid in our bathroom a few years back and we are tying to identify it. Can anyone help from these pictures please. Floor is like a hard plastic and 10mm thick

Mains pressure is affected badly if another tap in the house is used at the same time. So was just trying to avoid any potential issues that may arise with an electric shower feed.
