3 layers of tiles! It must feel like a much bigger house given how many fixed wardrobes etc you've removed in various bedrooms and the like. I am interested in the Drimaster - can you hear it when it's running? DO you notice a draft/do you have one of the versions with a heating element?
hah 3 layers of tiles only in the walls of the bathroom... Which I've not done yet
You can only hear the drimaster running if you put your ear up close (with the fan on a high setting) when you're in the loft. Otherwise it can't be heard at all from beneath, it's suspended from a cable to the roof trusses, so no vibration/noise can easily be transferred.
Image of install here:
It hasn't created any noticeable drafts, and mines installed in a narrow corridor, which is the worst kind of installation point (near walls)
In terms of humidity it has significantly reduced the humidity issues in the bedrooms backing onto the garage walls. If I leave the doors open will be around 60% measured from hygrometer, was previously 80+% (roughly)
-Humidity will still get high ish in the nights when sleeping, but will be resolved just by leaving the door open which suits our lifestyle (both at work all day). I expect the humidity to improve even more so when I get a door between the bedroom hall and the kitchen.
I've been installing roof lap vents in the loft the last week or so, as the non porous roof felt has been condensing a lot of water in it, due to the additional heat in the house with the increased insulation (which I made sure to leave gaps at the eaves!). I've since resolved this issue with roof lap vents thankfully, very poor quality old bitumen felt.
