Without any of the Extract and Supply valves fitted, the Supply vents were moving significantly more air than the Extract vents &#8211; which was surprising because they have longer duct runs. It looks like the fan speed will need increasing on the Extract side (and \/ or reducing on the Supply side) &#8211; since the flow volumes want to be balanced to reduce the tendency to vent air through the building fabric.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The heat pump \/ air conditioning installation isn&#8217;t finished yet and running the ventilation &#8211; even though it incorporates Heat Recovery &#8211; is tending to cool the building, so there&#8217;s a small oil-filled radiator helping to maintain the temperature in the Utility Room to aid the floor laying tomorrow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As expected, the main build team were back on site and focussed on laying the Marshalls GrassGuard blocks around the perimeter of the block paved area &#8211; and tidying up, in preparation for exiting the site.
