Why have isolation valves under the floor, out of interest?

Made a start today, good weather for digging holes! 8E9480C7-3F39-4C4C-858E-CFEF30E4A406 by Buxus posted 19 Feb 2020 at 7:19 PM

Good news, so there are no additional restrictions other than the 300mm height and 50% rule? I know it’s been mentioned before but is ground level only measured from the highest point?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, I’m planning a 5x7m deck in the rear corner of the garden. The front will be close to 300mm high, rising to 550mm at the rear. It will be against an evergreen 8ft hedge on one side and approx 20m from the other boundary. I not found any info on the...

I ordered all my skirting/architrave/picture rails from them and yes their communication is dire. The biggest issue I think is that they state a delivery time of something like 2-3weeks so people start to email and phone them and get fobed off with excuses. When the orders did arrive...

I've got one of these, the windows do make it dark but fine just for storage. https://www.purewelltimber.co.uk/collections/apex-sheds/products/security-shed

If the taps are freestanding then I would recommend screwing the bath feet to the floor, is that an option? No way gripfill will hold.

Would have been better to run them above the dpm as well. Do you mean just gas supply or heating?

There is a soil stack within 4m but it terminates below loft height, could I route the condensate internally in the loft, exit then angle into the soil pipe below the AAV?

Is that like the CondenseSure that Worcester Bosch offer?

AKA loft heater! Something else to add to my job list.

Yes all done, think it's 13mm.

Definitely lack of thought or blase about the weather risks. Annoying never the less especially as we didn't pick the cheapest quote. Photo taking during installation.

I'm in the same boat. The condensate pipe has frozen at the top and the wall is so icey that a ladder isn't safe to climb. Install is five months old...

Many thanks for the info, so I definitely put the cart before the horse and made things more difficult, however, most of the pipes have been run without too much head scratching. The build was otherwise going really well so I was more annoyed that I messed up.

Our builder used 110mm straight runs to the inspection chamber from the sink in the kitchen island. Seems fine to me!

No ufh under walls. Bathroom and shower room are separate zones designed by ambiente.

Because the stud walls are built off the floor.

Difficult to get pipes in the right place without walls though?

Apologies if this has been covered before. Have I made extra work for the plumbers by fitting the first floor ufh (Ambiente ambiplate) before the first fix? The joist depth is 200mm, I've insulated under the plates with 75mm rockwool. The builder also layed the floor and fitted the stud walls...
