Hello pete Where about in the UK are you. I am an air conditioning installer from Leicestershire. Yes the air conditioner is a heat pump, will cool and heat. Uses heat pump technology. ie: For every 1KW of output, ( heat) will use 0.4 Kw of power, unlike an electric heater which will use...

I will be laying air condition beneath floorboards soon. I will need to buy a saw to cut the floorboards. Would appreciate help from members on the best saw for the task. I presume a circular saw is best, also which is the best way to do it. Thank you

I bought a TCT core drill (70mm) from Screwfix and a Diamond core cutter from a local tool shop, also 70mm. Using a Toshiba 850 watt drill, on drill action only, ( not hammer) I burnt the diamond core drill going through two bricks. Where did I go wrong ?? Was the drill speed too high...

When using foam, is it possible to reuse at a later stage if only a small amount has been dispensed. In the past I have used a can and it has solidified. Seems such a waste considering it is not exactly cheap to buy a can. Any ideas welcome

Thanks Breezer, I use the cheapo TCT core drills from Screwfix.

I use core cutters , usually 80mm Dia . My question is: The heavy duty drill I use only has hammer action. Is it safe to use a core cutter in a hammer action, or does this damage the core cutter.

Ive got a Myson Apollo Boiler, not very old. Now that its summer I need hot water only. I only get hot water if the central heating comes on too. I think its a fully pumped system. I could do with some help. My motorised valve has a lever which is positioned to one side. If I move to the...

The vent on the big red expansion vessel is used to "repressurise" the vessel ONLY. Do not bleed anything from that. Valiant has another bleed port, often to the top right hand corner. Looks like a small grenade, ( best way I can describe it) You can bleed that port by slightly pressing the...

Aaront I think you are right. My bungalow was built in the 60's. It does have central heating which was put in much later. The woodworm holes were mainly in the shed and garage, ( not heated) The shed attached to the garage has been demolished and all the wood burnt. In the main house I...

Ive discovered woodworm rot in my floorboards and also some in the loft. I live in a bungalow. I am worried How is the best way to eradicate. There are small pockets......... Any advice appreciated
