Apologies if this is the wrong forum
Just looking for some general advice. I'm at the design stage of a new build - a 4 bed dormer bungalow in a rural setting.
Should I go for underfloor heating or rads ? Oil, gas or geothermal ? Is solar panels worth the cost re. pay back time etc. ? What is your experience of these. Is the passive house system worth the extra initial cost outlay ?
Anyone on here built a timber framed house in the last 10 years...would you recommend it ?
Sorry for all the questions but I'm new to all this... when it comes to engineers and architects, they seem to be a 'click' who try to make the most simple of matters very complicated and therefore expensive.....to maxamise their own fee no doubt !
