Painted Throughout, Heated and a glimpse of Semerwater

The plan has worked - all the interior painting has been completed and mighty fine it looks too.  We have taken the decision to paint everything plain white for now to enable us

This is the door to bedroom 2.   The heating of the whole extension is working exceedingly well with just the two modern efficient electric radiators set at 18 degreesC.  They reach temperature in next to no time and the heat recovery ventilation (HRV) plus the deep all-round insulation works well too.  The thermometer is located well away from the radiators and the 56% humidity may reflect the water based paint drying out.  The HRV acts to some degree like a dehumidifier.  The condensate tube on the main Vent Axia HRV unit below the floor drips reassuringly steadily.

And talking of water here's a lovely picture from Twitter today - Semerwater.  Not in the Lake District but not far from here in the Yorkshire Dales:
