    Thanks for your help and advice everyone. I'll need to do some thinking before next winter.

    Please explain how my electric underfloor heating works!

    This is a pretty accurate description of my situation :) Looks like I might have to re-think my heating setup...

    Please explain how my electric underfloor heating works!

    Oh. That's a bit worrying. But my understanding is that a washing machine uses about 1kWh. Surely my underfloor heating isn't using the equivalent of about 40 washing machine cycles overnight???

    Please explain how my electric underfloor heating works!

    Thanks a lot, SimonH2. That's very helpful. Thanks for your time. I'm taking your advice to post elsewhere too. No, I'm not - it appears to have moved already...

    Please explain how my electric underfloor heating works!

    Thanks SimonH2. You're right, there are 2 tariffs (1 and 2) but I don't know how the underfloor heating knows to come on only during tariff 2. If there's no timer... I mean, the lights come on whenever I switch them on; why doesn't the heating work like that?

    Please explain how my electric underfloor heating works!

    I moved in recently and can't make sense of how it actually works. I'm trying to work out why my electricity bills are huge (on my own in a 2-bed flat and I'm using 48 kWh per day), so I need to know how everything in the flat works. It has no timer and no on/off switch (that I can find). It...

    Kitchen cold tap sprays instead of pours

    The thing is that it sprays water everywhere even when it's only on gently. It just comes out the tap messily. It's a mixer and the hot water comes out beautifully.

    Kitchen cold tap sprays instead of pours

    Hi. We have a new kitchen tap which has excellent flow of hot water but the cold blasts out, as if there's lots of air coming out with it, and it sprays out to the sides instead of coming out as a jet. Is it the tap? Or is there something weird about the water supply? Thanks.

    Cold water tap pressure problem?

    Hi. We have a problem with our cold water taps in the bathroom. When you turn it on up to about a half it runs ok but not very powerfully; if you turn it on too high, there is a distant clunk (once) and the water slows to a trickle - you then have to turn off the water for a while before you...

    Lowering pressure on Worcester 30si combi

    Oops. I just took the edge of a screwdriver and managed another quarter-turn of the white square knob. :oops: Funnily enough, the drain point stopped draining within a couple of seconds. :lol: I was totally convinced that it was totally shut. What a muppet. If I'd taken your advice last night...

    Lowering pressure on Worcester 30si combi

    The overflow outside is still running but it has been all night (almost 24 hours now). So I'm not holding my breath for that to stop. The white square tap is completely shut. I have now bled many litres from the radiator and from the drain point beneath the boiler; I honestly can't see any...

    Lowering pressure on Worcester 30si combi

    Is the drain point to the other side of the key from the white square knob? (Is the key between the white square knob and the black drain point knob?) I've had that open now for about an hour and have emptied several litres of water through it but the needle hasn't gone down at all. Am I doing...

    Lowering pressure on Worcester 30si combi

    I've now left the heating off all night and the pressure's not going down at all. The overflow has been pouring all night too - I thought the overflow was supposed to release pressure - how can the pressure not have gone down? Also, I decided to close off all of the radiators and try to drain...
