I have a Danfoss TP9 / TS2 controlling my boiler. The Danfoss was fitted before I had the boiler replaced - it's now a Worcester Bosch condensing combi boiler. The previous one wasn't a combi hence the dual circuit thermostat. Looking at the internal temperature graph generated by my home...

Thanks, I'll get some. Need to make sure I have the right size drill as well!

Something like these? http://www.screwfix.com/p/fischer-hm-plasterboard-anchors-m4-x-46mm-pack-of-20/38777

I have two barthroom cabinets that need putting up onto studwork walls. I have used the self-tapping fixings that you simply screw in before, but I don't like them as in my hands they tend to life the top layer of the plasterboard. Am wondering what other fastenings would be recommended as...

Use a really good-quality brush, and I find using a slanted one helps. You might find a way of using a ruler as something to run your hand along to help the steadyness. Practice, practice, practice...

Thanks makes sense - it must be leaking somewhere outside the built-in tray, unless the float valve isn't working. Is there a URL anywhere that shows how to get the sides off?

I have an Exxcel slimline dishwasher, SRS43E02GB/13, and it's weeping water all the time from underneath. I've pulled it out and it's completly dry where the water inlet and waste hoses are. For the time being I've turned off the water supply. Any clues for where I start looking at this...

My DC01 needed a new hose so I got one from dyson, and I cannot pursuade it to latch properly into the body of the cleaner. Found something on their web site which I can't find now (probably because they no longer sell DC01 spares) which said 'use a tool' - but with no mention of what that tool...

Chris Frost, thanks, will bear you in mind if I can't find someone local. Care to contact me privately with an estimate? I have a clear picture of the damage.

It does of course help to remove all THREE screw from the back! Then the top simply slides off. However the repair isn't as easy as I'd hoped - it looks like it might be necessary to remove the main board - so now I'm looking for a HiFi repair shop in the Dundee - Perth - Glasgow -...

I tripped on one of the speaker cables which has damaged the posts it was plugged into. I suspect that if I can work out how to remove the cover it will be easy to fix - I can get the part from Arcam, and use the other set of posts in the meantime. However... I removed the two Torx screws...

There are at least two handy free bits of software you can download to see if channel conflict is a problem: http://www.netstumbler.com/ http://www.metageek.net/products/inssider/ Are you using the same router or has your new ISP sent you one already set up?

Lots of 3rd party carts are now chipped - the Inkrite ones I use in my Canon are - so all that stuff still works. If you want to refil your carts then you need a resetter for the chip. However I only use OEM ones in my big pigment ink printer.

The switch is right, the price seems excessive maybe because it's all wired up - and more importantly I'm not sure if I can take it apart to use just the switch to replace the one in my lamp. The photo only shows the front, the back might have screws to disemble it - or it might not. However...

Look for the cheapest Canon printer that has separate carts for each colour - buying tri-colour carts works out expensive in the medium term. Also consider if it's time to get a printer / scanner / copier - again, Canon is the make to go for IMHO. AFAIK 7dayshop.com will supply 3rd party...
