Can you clarify what your current job is ?

Hi. As Snowyb suggested we put the adults on Flex 500 explore and the Children on the higher plan, we also signed up to Primacare for 20 a month which gives us 8GP visits and Dental. (Works out at 30 per visit). Our youngest is covered under the free GP Scheme also but our preferred GP is not...

Hi Snowyb. Thanks a lot for your recommendations, it helped a lot and in the end we got a better plan for the same cost as last year

Hi. Just looking for some advice on renewal. We are currently on the Flex 500 Plus plan and are up for renewal, last year we spent just over €400 on GP expenses with two kids and my partner, Due to the excess of €150 this means we will get €50 back. Given the renewal fee is €1900 we are...

Hi. Looking for some some advice on the current situation. My spouse and I currently save 1k per month each and have accured 20k so far and will average 25k per year from now on excluding any pay increases. We currently have a two bedroom apartment valued at 120k if we wished a quick...

I agree with the others, do it right or not at all. Anything less just looks like corners have been cut and the next thing people will think is where else have corners been cut. Do it right, do it once.

Why not move into said two bed house with your GF. It is half yours and you are entitled to be there. This will free up funds for both you and your Girlfriend, to get some saving together, your rent will be freed up but lost again in your loose of rental income but your GF will have her rental...

Páid. I'm a bit confused as to what you actually want, have you rang any suppliers, your complaining about Irish Boiler prices but I have found them to be at times within 10% of the English price. Ireland does not have a big market for boilers online as the UK does so i'm not supprised you...

Did you also consider that there is a financial cost to loosing your tracker as well. As other have said in this forum I believe, a tracker can be looked at as an asset, in my case I have lost 100k on my property but I also know that should I buy it now at current market rates and with current...

Where exactly is this leak, you need to provide more information but more than likely the managment company should pay for the repair but the agent should be looking after this, that's his job after all. With respect to the balcony, the managment company owns it, the tenent has exclusive usage...

Yes, gravity has that effect on objects which are not obeying it. What goes up must come down. But seriously can the hands be so little as to not be able to close it without slamming it or having the sense to keep it open with one hand if they are able to open what must be a three kg easily lid...

Floor. Two ways: Take up the floor and replace the fibre glass with 100mm rigid board as the skylight. 100mm of Polyiso i.e K7 = 300mm Fibreglass. Lift the floor put the 100mm of polyiso over the joists and floor ensuring your rescrew the floor to the joists. B&Q do a t&G board with the...

Why woud this be an issue out of interest, your fridge draws air in from below it anyway which of course is warm, if anything it is of advantage to you as most fridges need air above 2c for the compressor to function, many peope during the cold spell had fridges which would not cool due to the...

If you live in an apartment, there should be a bank of meters there and your time clock will be with your meter. It may also be a communal time clock but it will be in the same location. Per the duoheat. It is the same height x width roughly its a 300n, its its twice the width x height then...

Simply put, in a duoheat unit there is no flap to open to "release" the heat so it it has no output, its a sealed unit. If the input is set to max and the place is cold then your heaters are undersized. To give you an idea. I have two 500n Duoheats in a 7m x 7m sitting room, fireplace and three...

If you know the construction you could try the Kermi heat loss calculator. Google it. I found it quick accurate.

Simple Query. Forget rockwoll, get 150mm more fibreglass and its cheaper, lay on top of your current insulation in the opposite direction. Skylights: Best would be to get some rigid board insulation 8x4 sheets and to side to insulate the skylight, say the tube per say from the room through the...

True they don't have an output know but I assume you know how to set the input level. Dueoheat are a sealed unit designed to maintain a background temp at all times rather than a traditional heater from which you release the heat when ready, slow and steady wins the race. Re your time clock...

This should be simple enough to sort yourself. Firstly the single glazing will be loosing a huge amount of heat. Get yourself a set of curtains with a heavy thermal lining, usually you buy the lining itself. Put them up and you should see a massive differance. Also put a sheet of paper in the...

Hi All. Just looking for some advice. Purchased my PPR three and half years ago, a two bed apartment, signed upto a fixed rate for five years with repayments of 1338 per month and 1150 after 187.50 TRS. Currently have 230000 remaining on a mortgage of 280000 due to large deposit. In the mean...
