    Extending over converted garage - please help!!

    You can use pits and steels to carry an upstairs over garage conversion.... Get an SE to design it...its not difficult or that expensive compared to the disruption. Top tip use Insulated structural panels, massive lowers the load and cost.

    I've provided a lovely new cold feed going exclusively to a new combi. A quick question.

    Personal I wouldn't panic .. we run two showers off a greenstar 1000 both are warm at 50 degrees.. The thing we found was adding a small pressure vessel to the cold feed after the one way valve sorted out any flow issues. Just made the cold feed stable..
