Hi,
We recently had an extension build, which meant the window to our understairs cupboard was blocked up. I want to sort the space out so we can use it as a coat cupboard. There is the exposed block work, from blocking up the window and some other exposed brickwork where the plaster fell off...
That's kind of what I was thinking. Someone suggested using a Kingspan type of insulation with a membrane on the outside. Perhaps we could put that down the gap towards the internal side, leaving a smaller cavity towards the external side?
Hi, We have a 1930's house with semi-circular bay windows. The outside being tiled. We're having the Windows & window sills replaced, so it would be an ideal time to add insulation into the cavity if it were a sensible thing to do. There is quite a gap and we could easily put the rolled...
Is it fairly easy to replace a seal on this machine?
We've had the machine since 2005 and the seal looks like it's beginning to degrade in a couple of places. We've never had it serviced so I wonder if I'm best getting someone to service the machine and replace the seal or if I should have a...
Our Glow Worm Cxi30 appears to have been got at by the cold. It definately had frozen water in the condensation pipe which we defrosted, but now it's leaking in various places. A heating engineer has taken a look and recommended a few things needs replacing (a pipe joint), also at least the fan...
Just got home and the whole things leaking out of the bottom. I think I've managed to turn off the water inlet - should that help? It was a tap at the bottom of one of the pipes. It definatley wasn't a gas pipe.
should I try the stop tap for the whole house? There's 2 taps under the sink -...
Hiya,
Our heating went off the other day with an 'F3' fault. On speaking to the installer he thought it would be the condensation pipe running from the bottom of the boiler outside that was frozen. He seemed to be right and after spending 3 hours we managed to defrost it and it seemed to be...
I cut through the cable on my Dad's hedgetrimmer. Went to B&Q and bought a connector (10 amp, 2 pin orange thing) to fix the problem. It didn't work. As it was an old trimmer I've left it to my dad to fix and have bought a new one....
Well having bought the new one, being the idiot I am, I've...
We're looking to replace our old cronky alarm for a new one and am looking for a bit of advice.
We've had a wireless Friedland one before which we liked. I've noticed they do one designed for homes with pets. Has anyone experience of these and can let me know if they work .... or is the cat...
I have the above machine. We've had it for about 5 years and have never had it serviced or cleaned the filter out. Given that we've got a cat I guess we probably should at some point.
Therefore my questions:
- does this model have a filter we should clean?
- If so can I do it, or do I need...
