Hello,

yes, the purple plant is Verbena ‘Homestead Purple’

it isn’t always that easy to get hold of.

Hey Kusten! another Cardiff lady, yay!! I love fresh flowers in the house as well, I have a few plants (orchids and Anthurium included) but what I do about once every 3 weeks is go to the flower market in Grangetown (on Bessemer Road) - I think it's opened from 5am to 9am (silly hours, I know). You can buy flowers for a lot less than in a florist and you can get those that tend to last longer than 5 days - like kangaroo paws or bird of paradise flower or Gerbera with ferns and grass- really easy to make lovely arrangements with them. I love the arrangements you've made - you've actually given me a few ideas. Give the market a try, you never know, you may like what they have (and their prices!)

I would think building design would be better as per Elshaw's comment. When you get to the stage of building for yourself, then you pool Architects, Builders, Planners etc to help you. You have to know how to build and what can be built before you can design. Anyone can come up with ideas, but if they are impossible to build, they're not worth the time spent conjouring them up.

Warmfloor 24V underfloor heating...does anyone have it?
Q

Of course It's correct to say that in the past less efficient traditional systems needed 150-200W per m² to do the job , but that rather misses the point of modern low-energy systems. Typically traditional electric underfloor heating systems would consist of a single 240v cable attached to a net, laid to snake its way across a floor surface. The cable would have to be heated to as much as 60-70C in order to produce enough heat to warm the volume of air in the room above, so power consumption had to be as high as 150-200W per m². The new low-energy systems heat the entire surface of the floor rather than a thin cable width strip. As this means that it is the whole floor which is radiating heat upward, this means that the element can do the job when heated to the much lower temperature of 26C. This only requires 40-50W per m².. Less energy is used to heat more floor surface. In addition, the Warmfloor system in particular benefits from the self-regulating effect of the element only ever drawing the energy required at any particular point to maintain the set temperature across the floor. So an area in warm sunlight will draw less power than an area next to an open door, etc. Less energy is required to maintain temperature. I'm not sure why it would seem to be more likely that low energy connections would overheat than 240v connections drawing more power. A low-voltage, low energy system with a heating element that can be nailed through with no effect is pretty much problem-free, which is why we can give a 20 year warranty with no worries.
