I'm replacing old timber framed doubled glazing with upvc and was wanting some advice on what frames and glass to go for. Local companies seem to use rehau, eurocell and aluplast frames. Then it's between pilkington k glass argon filled and planitherm glass.
Is there much between the above...
We have a radiator that isn't very warm at the bottom I'm guessing a sludge build up and was wanting to clean it out.
What would be the procedure for this? Would the whole system have to be drained or just a case of turning off the valves, disconnecting radiator, clean, then reattach?
Any...

We have the acl lifestyle lp241 programmer on a y plan pumped central heating.
I found an online compatibility checker for the nest E and says its not compatible when I select the wire labels as...
I've found a crude work around to get central heating only. I removed the thermostat from the cylinder. At first I thought to attach it to the flow pipe thinking the heat from the pipe would stop demand from the cylinder, however I realised that pressing in the metal plate on the thermostat...
Until someone can sort the wiring out I could presumably mark the default hot water position on the pipework and return the motorised valve before the engineer comes without creating any other issues?
Thanks. I'd already found them and had set things up, but the problem is the programmer is always showing that the hot water is on whenever I try and select the heating on its own.
The valve stays in the mid position until the cylinder meets its setpoint temperature, only then will it switch to...
Thanks for your explanations. Unfortunately I'm not renting, so any repair bills land at my feet. I was thinking of keeping the system going for this winter, then replacing with a more modern combi boiler - would the existing pipe work and radiators be compatible with a combi?
What would be...
