MVHR

The under pod sealing to the rest of the property has taken a considerable amount of time.
It is not certain that this will be 100% airtight because of the omission of the skirt to the pod underside.
The solar collectors were installed onto the pre-fitted brackets on the roof in readiness for the pipework connection.
The existing joists which continue over the passageway have been filled with insulation in order to eliminate any cold bridging from the passageway ceiling.
The membrane was jointed and continued up the wall and over the joists in the new first floor living space as described before.
The MVHR was mounted on brackets within the pod.
This was mounted higher than anticipated because of the need of a condensate trap on the underside of the unit. This in turn had an impact on the connections to the external exhaust and intake vents which were previously fitted within the pod roof structure.
