3 phase electrics?

Yes it was cheaper than single phase to put in

 

[dazza b]

Yeah it is looking at that

 

[Speedstar]

What sort of heating system you putting in?

Ground source & solar thermal , will heat it & do the hot water

Yeah it's not hangy trying to finish off in the current weather we're getting. Plaster takes a lot of drying out

Believe he said Christmas on here, just not which one[emoji56], anyway Christmas is cancelled this year[emoji848][emoji40] so a reprieve! [emoji3]

Looking good btw. don't be tempted to rush the plaster drying bit.

 

[Hilly]

Looks good !

 

[Speedstar]

Heating system is coming on now, with both ground source & solar thermal there is a bit of pipe work to do , but hopefully it will all be finished & working this week

Is some boiler room

That is in the garage .

I'm envious !
Do you have additional manifolds, to those in the pictures, on the underfloor heating to control the floor temperature in different areas ?
What make of heat pump have you put in and what KW output ?

We are just starting detailed drawings.

Yes we have a few more manifolds each room has a thermostat, Nibe system , will have a look and see how many kw, the ground source is linked to the solar thermal as well and the systems dose everything, heating,hot water and the heater towel rails

Make sure your drawings are100% ,as some of ours have been wrong and has made a few problems along the way and guess what the architect is never wrong with his drawings

Ours is a Nibe, 8kw. I think there’s a 12kw available aswell on Single Phase.

Not many architects get it right!!

More like the cooling system for a nuclear power station.

It is a 12KV heating system

We have just asked an architect to start the planning process so will start a new thread once you are completed.
Hope he gets the plans right.

Architects draw pretty things, they rarely know about how anything really works. A project I was involved with years ago included sliding glass doors that were 3m wide by 6m high in a sunken garden at the rear of the property with nowhere convenient to put a crane, architect response was "can't you just get a few more men in to carry the doors?"
