    Aqualisa Quartz remote button problem

    Hi All, just checking I'm not missing something daft with our new aqualisa quartz. The main controls work perfectly, however the wired remote button doesn't do anything and the blue light on it is on permanently. Nothing changes on the remote button when you use the shower.

    We are in the midst of purchasing an old house which has damp on pretty much every wall downstairs. We've had the usual suspects in to quote to remedy the problem. Two seperate damp experts have recommended chemical DPC and tanking on one wall where the ground levels are high. Total cost for...

    White Cottage - pictures

    We've just had our offer accepted on a 'project' house in a village near the town we live in now. Having done a little DIY before we did think that our second house could be a 'doer upper' so we could buy something nicer for our budget that we would otherwise not be able to afford. Sooo...
