My Programmer/stat is badged 'British Gas RC plus', talking to a Worcester Bosch 28CDi. LCD screen is knackered and I want to replace prog/stat. Looking online, I can tell it's not a Drayton Digistat +1RF. However, I can't see the difference between a +2RF and +3RF. Does the BG RC Plus equate to...

I am a spark and while testing new cabling today a wire fell out of a terminal in an underfloor heating wiring centre/control box. Have looked at some wiring plans but can't sus where it came from. Please see diagram of PCB. Thanks for your help.

I am installing a shower pump and rejigging pipework. Pump outlets are 15mm and mixer taps are 22mm. Is there any advantage in me fitting 22mm pipe over the 4m run or should I fit a 15mm run and expand it just before the mixer taps?

I want to matt-emulsion my ceiling but at present it is painted with HARD gloss paint with drips in places. Been using orbital sander but it stands off the hollows and leaves them unscoured. Rubbing it down is a long, horrible job. Have tried a heat gun at varying temperatures and distances but...

A wire has fallen out of a terminal in a wiring centre I’m working on and I’m don’t know where it belongs. It is the ‘Switch Live’ leading to boiler. I was replacing the mid position valve so suspect it may share a terminal with a valve wire, can’t be certain. Diverter valve = Honeywell V4073...

A badly-installed wet underfloor heating system is heated by a 3kW element in a tiny, foam-covered immersion tank no bigger than a thermos flask - no make/model visible. I need to move pump onto cool side as it has been heat-damaged. Can I orient the little immersion tank upright or must it stay...
