Heating

We’ve been having some trouble with the floor… the block out under the dining room isn’t heating well. We know there are pipes there : see below:

We tried setting it on all day ( on the basis that  bit of the slab might never have gained enough momentum with various staged applications of manifold and timing and thermostats then my attempt to reduce gas consumption as the weather warms….   )

This resulted in me discovering at 1.45 am that teh ambient temp was 23.5 and teh radioators - althogh showing off… were on!  Research continues. Double glazing is good an certainly teh slab does hold the heat.

Turns out tehre is some marvy new product out and noe Red Dwarf rotinely insulate the exterior of the slab. Cold comfort….

The range hood doesn’t draw very well…..

Mantle in in and looks good …

We await the builders to do their stuff.See final inspection

Old house awaits ripping out of old kicthen and rendering and painting and … I am a bit over it all today!!!
