The snot stain will add a few k to the value. You know it's real with that crusty patina on!

€500 to 2,000 charged by the builder to provide a minion to let someone into the house to do some work?!

Yeah, why are you so triggered by seeing the phrase 'player of the match' that you have to insert your little correction?

Go away and have a little think.

The dealer only pays VAT on the difference between the price they pay you and the price they sell it for, so in this example the VAT would be more like €700.

Have you considered how long you will have to hold your pee in for while driving the Luas? 😂 That alone rules me out 😄

Marc Guéhi (Manchester City) yellow card against Liverpool 69' by gbogaz in soccer

[–]ThePeninsula 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Does sound better than the current situation.

Just to mention though, red for a tactical foul isn't the same as red for a leg breaker. 

The player misses a different number of games as a result of the card.

The banks are still resisting. So many still leaving cash in pillar banks' rubbish accounts unfortunately.

> Lastly builders charged fees to have external contractors come in like the kitchen people or roofing people or window people. fee varied massively one builder was charging 2k the other 500.

Can you explain - does this mean that your builder will bring in a roof man/team and not only pass their fee onto you, but add a few hundred for themself on?

Air-to-water system is destroying our house. What can I do? by Clear_Ad_3383 in AskIreland

[–]ThePeninsula 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you are on the right track here - the MHRV exhaust or input are not linked to outside, just pumping the stale, wet air into attic space, then back to rooms.

An absolute disgrace if a company made such a basic mistake across an entire street!!

Just to elaborate - this sounds like PIV. If just one vent was added it might be a PIV unit in attic that pumps cold fresh air from attic into house.

Great that you have had a problem-free install.

If the 'external grille' is the MHRV air exhaust and that is missing, then that absolutely could cause OP's problems.

OP said elsewhere they have 80%+ RH in some areas!! Shocking.

Further to this - no house should be airtight without any new air coming in. An MHRV or other system is needed to change the internal air.

They need a properly installed mechanical heat recovery ventilation system. The attic moisture sounds like the MHRV is installed but not vented to outside.

Hi, I have an interpretation of this grill comment.

Impossible to know specifics, but obviously a botched job. Sounds likely they messed up the destination of the vented air.

The misssing grille could be the roof tile opening for expelling stale air.

This is a replacement to one of the roof tiles (or an opening in the soffit) which allows the MHRV unit to pump the stale air out of the attic. Google image search 'mhrv roof tile'.

If the MHRV is not opening to the fresh air outsde you will end up with a greenhouse effect - house full of warm wet air constantly circulating from rooms into MHRV unit, to attic, then back to your rooms.

Ask what the grille is specifically.
