D'oh, did a search and found the answer. Forgot I need to drain the system first as it's a ground floor rad. Then open one top end cap on any empty rad and por in the inhibitor. Then fill the system back up! How hard is it to empty and refill the system? Thanks, Pat...

Cheers. What's the best/easiest way of putting the inhibitor in? Thanks, Pat...

And being a combi boiler, would I be right in thinking it's ok just to connect up the little link pipe (cold mains to rad system) after until the pressure gets back up to 1 ??? Cheers, Pat...

Hi all, What's the process for permanently removing a radiator? Not sure what type of system I have. All I know is that it's a combi boiler. I can get to both pipes under the floor. Can they be bridged or will the need capping? Thanks, Pat.

Cheers. Yep - 60W bulbs. I don't like the light that the the fluoros give off and my garage has many joists across the roof so a tube would have to sit inbetween them which would severely limit it's light spread. 20" is feasable at this moment in time. Pat.

Hi, I've had a search and not yet found a definative answer. As I am due to pour concrete 6" deep all over my drive next Saturday, getting a cable in now would be a good option, but I'm still a bit unsure of exactly what to use. I need 2 double sockets and 5x60W bulbs in my garage. I...

Left the "surplus" earth long enough to still put a bit of green/yellow sleeve on it and choc bloc it so I will. Thanks for all the advice - light and switch work fine by the way. Cheers, Pat...

Hi, Thanks andrew2022. But what's a class 1 light fitting? So far I have cut the upstairs lights radial circuit and added a 3 way round junction box. From this junction box, I have taken 1.0mm two core to the switch. The live connects to one terminal of the switch, the neutral to a choc bloc...

How do I connect an earth to a "bulb on a wire" with only two wires? I know the answer and I know how and where to connect the earths. Thanks anyway. Pat... I also can't get to the last connection as it is right in the corner of the loft behind the water tanks etc, hence asking what...

Would be 1.0mm twin and earth, but without the earth connected. Even if I find the last light in the circuit and wire it the same way from there, what difference would it make if it's at the end or in the middle?

Hi, For ease of installation of a simple bulb on a wire in my loft, can I simply add a junction box to the existing wire that supplies each of the bedroom lights in turn, take one wire from the +VE of this junction box to a switch, and then the other side of the switch to one side of the bulb...
