    Underfloor heating power

    That is perfect, thank you. The replies here have been very useful in helping me to ensure that I'm not solely relying on UFH to heat the rooms (which looked like it was going to be the case in the bedroom which only had 1 radiator planned); I have planned in a second radiator into the bedroom...

    Underfloor heating power

    This is a good point. The bedroom is quite large and I only had one radiator planned for it due to some stying features around the room making it less than ideal to have a second radiator. Your reply has made me plan in a second radiator for the room in a way that doesn't ruin the aesthetics...

    Underfloor heating power

    Thanks for your reply and useful insights. Your reply and others here have made me rethink if I should drop the idea of the bedroom and dressing room having UFH under the carpet :) In terms of heat loss and insulation, we've ensured that we've taken this part seriously. All the rooms have been...

    Underfloor heating power

    Hi John, Thank you for the helpful reply. Thanks for the reminder about the RCD size. The space I have is actually 2 slots rather than 1, but hopefully I can still keep that free for a RCD based on your reply. Apologies that I didn't mention the power requirements of the UFH. If it helps, I've...

    Sony 4K TV display replacement - should I try?

    Thanks both, the posts above seem to agree with your views. I couldn't find the part so I couldn't really assess the cost/benefit. I'll make do with it for now but keep a lookout for another TV :)

    Sony 4K TV display replacement - should I try?

    Aha, I didn't know the correct term was LCD Panel, thanks! I was thinking of looking at scrapped TVs next, but you are right - it's not worth the hassle and as @Rodders53 mentioned above, it's such an old TV, I suspect I'll be hard pressed to find a donor unit. I'll start looking for a...

    Sony 4K TV display replacement - should I try?

    Hey everyone, I have a Sony 55" 4K TV (Model No: KD-55X9305C) which I got a few years back. The screen is damaged at the top left where it looks like pressure was applied by the previous owner (forgot to take a picture before I took it down but there is a picture where the TV was in the...

    LED TV with no power light (but circuits showing voltage)

    Thank you, I did see a hint of 110V on the digital dester, and now it makes sense why. I have looked at that link and it seems like that would be the way to go if it's too much trouble to identify the fault. Thank you for clarifying where to check, I was a little lost for a moment there when...

    LED TV with no power light (but circuits showing voltage)

    Thanks for getting back. I am using a Digital Voltage Tester by Rolson I also have a multimeter : I tested the topmost pin where the ribbon cable from the power board plugs into the AV board. I got a reading of 36V when I put my thumb on the Induction Breakpoint Test point, and a reading...
