We have just had a Remeha 35c installed and it was connected to our existing Honeywell cm927 stat, that previously controlled an old Biasi boiler. The boilers fine - plenty of hot water hot radiators, no problem there. We do notice that the house gets, I won't say cold, but chilly. The stat...

I have a biasi riva compact m90e.28s - it keeps cutting out then re-igniting. I've had someone look at it and when tested he got erratic results from the htg/hw thermistor. Also the pressure keeps dropping - he filled it up to around 3 bar whereby water started coming out of a pipe out the...

Can anyone recommend using Jacksons fence panels. Doing a comparison at the moment they seem to be working out cheaper than many others for 21 closeboard panels, straight & concave, with slotted posts & gravel boards. There's a cheaper local supplier that I've visited, but the quality of...

I have a suspended timber floor - onto which is being laid an engineered wood floor, probably one of the 15mm deep types and the skirtings are being fitted after the floor is laid. Under the floor is quite a deep void and I am considering laying rigid foam insulation between the joists whilst...

I have a Bosch Excel 1200, quite a few years old. Tablets placed in the drawer are not always dissolving and partially remain in the drawer, the same occurs if they are placed in the drum. The water is heating up - the flow into the drawer seems fine, sometimes pouring a bit of water through...

I am going to install a wired alarm into a 3 bed house. The floors are up so I have easy access everywhere at the moment. Can anyone advise which are some of the best brands around at the moment.

I have a Karcher pressure washer K2.94 - after using it for an extended period it has started cutting shutting down for a while before coming back on. You can hear it make a noise and its available for use. It only operates for a minute or two now before shutting down for around 5 minutes...

I have a new set of banisters to paint, I have some Dulux trade knotting solution. It comes in a small tin with a brush attached to the lid. It is a dark brown color. However reading previous posts here everyone seems to advocate a white color knotting solution. I imagine this will be fine after...

What would you consider to be an optimum mains water pressure. I'm asking as we have had to install a pressure reducing valve on the incoming mains to stop a severe water hammer issue. An aqua lisa engineer believes that we have blown a shower valve as the pressure was too high. I have...

Hi we have had a new bathroom suite installed, Since installation we are suffering from quite bad water hammer, every device in the house, wc washing machine causes this effect. We are on a mains fed combi system. Two approaches have been suggested. Firstly installing a pressure reducer on...

We are about to purchase an engineered wood floor for living room/hall. We have looked at a few floors in showroom and seem to be leaning towards Parador. I have used Kahrs flooring previously as well and quite liked the look of it. One thing that has surprised me is that when you go for a...
