Have you left he heating on in those cold rooms for a long time? If the flow and return temps get close to each other it means the floor is no longer exchanging heat with the water, at 10 degrees you are still getting a heat exchange and is still warming the floor. A thick screed will take a few...

that's the way its running and that's the way its likely to stay then, cheers Jon

Has it ever worked in those said rooms?

Thanks Jon Downstairs pipes sitting on 50mm celotex in 25mm screed pipe centres 100mm. Upstairs clipped to 25mm celotex again 25mm screed and 100mm centres. Floor coverings downstairs is 14mm engineered oak flooring and upstairs a thin carpet and underlay with tiled bathrooms. It's an old house...

I love a blanket on the sofa lol, was just wondering if anybody had any experience or knowledge of heat pump and setback control. Cheers

Hi Currently in my house we use wet underfloor heating running off an oil boiler, each room is individually controlled and we do not use any setback, the heating is on all the time whenever the stat calls for it. This has always worked very well and have been pleased with it. We are about to...

Thanks, yes it would do but trying to keep with the rest of the new faschia it would look different, not got OCD but I do like things to look the same, symmetrical etc lol

Hi Does anybody know of anywhere that sells plastic verge coping? The stuff im after would be the same as what is used as verge coping on box profile or corrugated sheets. A white right angle plastic about 150 or 175mm Can't find anything in plastic anywhere! As an alternative I could...

Hi I'm pretty sure copper sulphate mixed and sprayed on to the roof will kill all the moss pretty quickly, hence one of the reason people use copper rivets and put copper on roofs

Thinking of it..... If the slates come above the height of the cement strip then would it be a good idea to slate right over the cement and put some sort of flashing under the new slates and create a "false soffit" Cheers

hi all I am replacing the corrugated sheet roof with slates to match the other slates on the roof. The height of the corrugated part of the roof might have to come up by 3 inches which would include the bearers on the trusses (old A frame) and felt and battens. It depends what we find when...

Couldn't find any thing for stilhaus in the forum searches but will try other searches Thanks

I know to stay well clear of that name! It just seems to good to be true to have a designer come out supposedly with samples and plan your kitchen them only pay them a £100 deposit, you don't pay them any more until you've checked all the gear as it comes off the lorry and you're happy with...

Hi been looking at kitchens for when the time comes in our renovation which hopefully won't be that far away and have seen an advert for stilhaus kitchens these kitchens are thousands of pounds cheaper than everywhere and was wondering if anybody has good or bad experiences with them, been...

Hi im renovating an old farmhouse and am trying to keep as many of the original features as possible which includes all the exposed ceilings and joists between ground and first floors, the problem is is that the floor boards and the ceiling boards are the same boards so hence at the moment...

Hi, I know its an old tread but was wondering how you got on, I need to be doing a similar job to an old farm house on external walls. Built a new house in the last few years and used 2" celotex, would this be enough for the renovation. Cheers Steve

if that fails drill a bigger hole and fill it with anchorfix or something similar, put your rawl plug in and wait , but work quick cos that stuff goes off fast, you could probably hang a filled radiator in under half an hour. the only problem with the 2pac tubes is you tend to waste quite a lot...

been on the roof and its a 6" flue external diameter and it looks as if its 5" internal with insulation in between how could i tell if its a class A or not?
